If you have access to a OwnCloud (or Nextcloud) server and can install the OC News app on it (no particular technical skill required), that setup in combination with this Android app is a terrific way to read lots of news feeds. I'm using it now in combination with Nextcloud v10, and it works like a charm. The Android apps even zooms non-mobile ready sites properly in the browser window, so it is easier to read them. I use this app everyday on a HTC One phone and an Asus tablet.

Good! Mimics the browser app nicely! Not sure if I'm experiencing a bug or a feature though: I can't view read articles at all. All of my news sources are rss feeds, and after I've read them, they are gone forever, it seems. Edit: I was expecting an experience closer to the browser app (where read articles stay for as long as they are in the rss feed), but that was an incorrect assumption. I'll get into the habit of starring items I want to read (or re-read) later. Thanks for clearing that up!

This has quickly become the best RSS reader I've ever used. Hands down 👍.

I cannot even sign in. I attempt to sign in using the files' app option, but I select my account and press "ok", it proceeds to give me a 404 error. I cannot sign in manually, as I have no idea where to find my Nextcloud Root Adress.

It has been impossible to use this app. It just stops syncing my library before even reaching 25% of the articles.
