Best RSS app out there... Really like the 'function over style' philosophy. Finally, a no-nonsense RSS reader with a sensible subscription!!
★★★★☆Christopher Silsby· Aug 21, 2023
The ability to read offline and dark theme (with all the original features) make this one of the best rss readers

News blur has been my only RSS reader for years, and I get tremendous value from the yearly subscription across hundreds of feeds in tens of folders. Well-supported, flexible and reliable.
★★★★★Abhay Singh· Sep 3, 2023
One of the best news app, you can creat your own feed, saves lots of time. Thank you 👍

Can't add Twitter feeds without paying $36? I'm trying to replace Google feed with Twitter accounts I like plus YouTubers and other news I prefer. I'm not paying for another subscription to maybe read tweets easier.

Maybe this app is good, but with viewing by folder disabled for only premium users It's pretty useless unless you pay...

Hasn't worked in days. Refuses to update any feeds. Won't load any new articles. When it does work, it's very hit or miss, especially in regards to marking articles as read/unread. If you use the button to mark all articles in a feed as read, even new articles that haven't been loaded will be marked as read, which means you'll totally miss any articles published after the last time the app successfully updated the feed... which could be hours or even days ago.
