Feedly – Google Reader sync for iPad – best magazine style RSS app
December 18, 2011
Plus, it had Google Reader syncing – a must for me. I follow several feeds on a regular basis, and Google Reader is my service of choice for managing those feeds.
I was quickly disappointed, however, as Flipboard did not have an option to hide previously read articles. It would mark them as read by changing the color of the title, but you still had to flip over them to see older posts. This was annoying to me. Any standard RSS reader normally has this function.
For a long time MobileRSS HD Free did the trick. It is fairly intuitive and utilizes gestures well for navigation. But….still very utilitarian.
Then I found Feedly. Feedly offers a great combination of RSS feed reading features with a more pleasing magazine style layout like that which made Flipboard so popular. (it is also available as a browser plugin and for Android, as well as for iPhone)
If you are like me and desire this combination, along with Google Reader sync, check out Feedly.
Now for the Screen shots…
