Customer Reviews
Great idea but...
This is a cool concept but I was hoping to use this with google reader. Everything was fine until I realized how weak it is at doing that. This app is so basic that I cant even easily move from article to article. I have to go back out to the list of articles to go to the next unread item. Now I'm finding that I'm touching more than I would be expecting to from an app that claims that there will be less of that. Am I missing something here?
Not what is advertised
I've stayed away from RSS readers because they all seem to require Google Reader, which I hate and refuse to use. I thought this one didn't require that. From the description it seems it doesn't. But it does. For instance, it claims to be able to use your Instapaper unread list -- but it only does that via Google Reader!
I also thought it supported Safari's Reading List, but it's some other service which I don't have. An utter waste of a buck. 😞
Good idea, poor execution.
Please fix the part that actually populates the reader with content. All I seen was a white screen and a loading wheel. I'm pretty patient but that's just ridiculous.
