best rss reader for nexus 7 clean, fast, scrolling and swiping fluid, full features. perfect.
★★★★★
Best rss reader I've tried yet. The magazine layout is awesome! :)
★★★★★
Very impressive Decided to try something other than the official Reader app, and this one is really good. I am using it on my Padfone tablet, and the tablet layout is great. Best part is the performance, it's really fast unlike the official client.
★★★★★
The best RSS reader The interface looks great on a tablet. Would you believe how hard it is to find a tablet-friendly RSS reader. It's plenty customisable too; it even has the option to have white text on a black background. Better than the official Google Reader app.
★★☆☆☆
Doesn't really do it for me... It seems to be a pretty nice RSS reader, but I'm not a fan of how wide the left column is in portrait mode when trying to determine what I want to read from my feeds. It takes up roughly 70% of the screen. Landscape mode looks fine, but it's rare for me to read in landscape mode. For now, I'll continue to use gReader
★★☆☆☆
A mess It's somewhat powerful, but so lacking in elegance and simplicity it's a waste of time. It's a chore just to read the news. Mobilizing is a good idea, but really slow and inconsistent. Back to the slow but functional Pulse reader. Unfortunately.
★★☆☆☆
Syns restrictions Not great for those of us who have a lot of feeds (I have 350). Sync restrictions (1000 per tag, 1000 per feed, 10000 max items) ruin the app for me since I can't see many of the items. Please remove restrictions and do it the way GReader does it.
