Comments on GoodNews (Google Reader | RSS) for Android

★★★★★ LOVE this! By far the best reader I've tried. I used the google app and gReader and this is fast and clean and also incorporates podcasts. Absolutely love it for my LG Ally.

★★★★★ Goodnews Really good app for podcasts and reading news feeds

★★★★★ Perfect Good with rss feeds, good with podcast, good with video podcasts. Only problem! there is neither simultaneous download capability nor queing for pods

★★☆☆☆ PAINFULLY SLOW SYNC Used to be a nice application, but syncing is now painfully slow.. Even through wifi

★★☆☆☆ Bafflingly complex It was easy enough to get it to download my list of podcast subscriptions from Google Reader. But I could never figure out how to get it to download the actual podcasts, so that I could listen later while offline.

★★☆☆☆ can't delete a partial download can't delete a partial download, have to download all the episode to have the delete episode appear on the menu items!!!

★★☆☆☆ Freezes every time I open it. :( Uninstalled. Motorola Cliq xt.

★★☆☆☆ Sluggish download Offline syncing took ages to complete and was incomplete. burned though twenty percent of my battery just to download fifty offline feeds. N
