Software Reviews and Criticism

  The Last (Best) RSS Reader I'm Likely To Use

  I've been through a lot of IOS news reader apps. Many of them had outstanding features, but none brought so many together as does Newsify. Great look, system of viewing articles (and a choice of preference there), saving, and sharing. I cannot imagine any RSS reader improving on what this app delivers, and so I'm putting this quest to bed. I can add, through my own experience, a report on support. I was having a problem with one aspect of the app that would have been quickly and easily corrected in settings, had I not repeatedly overlooked the toggle. Through support services contact, the developer patiently pinpointed the source of my issue, and clearly supplied the remedy. So, I can attest to Newsify's stellar customer support.

  Arrow

  I’m trying to find a new app to use as I don’t like the old one I have used for 5 plus years. I have found a pretty big issue that will have me stop using this app very quickly. I have found the last two times I have used the app when I go into an article the arrow and all the other buttons disappear. No matter what I do tapping scrolling they don’t come back. I don’t want to have to scroll down every story. In order for them to come back I have to force close the app and reopen it. It’s a pretty big and bad issue. The previous news app/ rss reader app I was using I really started to dislike after years of using it. I have tried to find a replacement but after using this app for not even half a day I will be going back to the old one. It could be I’m so used to the other one since I have been using it everyday for 5 plus years. The above issue is a huge problem but just other small things make this app a no.

  this transformed my RSS workflow.

  For people who consume lots of news and need it quickly, this app is fantastic. The data-rich format, while still keeping images, is the best I’ve tested and the upload speeds with a premium subscription are great. The full-text feature is crucial to making this great since so many feeds never show the full texts. In the three or four times that full texts didn’t download, the developer responded within hours to get it working. Full text is doubly impressive since I rely on a lot of niche and foreign news sources and still rarely have trouble getting full text. Even with a premium subscription, this app is so good that I almost feel like it’s too good to be true.

  Best news reading app

  I love this app so much. One concern I have is with the ‘Add to reading list’ feature. Why do I need to confirm every time if I want to add a link to my reading List? If you have given a toggle switch for persons who don’t need to have a pop-up every time, it would be great. Also displaying a confirmation message mentioning ‘the article has been added to your reading list’ would be helpful. Sometimes I have to go to my safari to check if the link has been added to my reading list. Hopefully this feature would be added in future. Once again, thanks for the wonderful app.

  Best RSS App!

  - No other app out there seems to do as we as pulling in Full-Text articles. - Consistently pulls in full text for articles that other RSS apps can’t. This saves a lot of time because you never have to wait for the full article to load - it’s already there! - Best OFF-LINE RSS app - if you live or work somewhere with inconsistent internet coverage, this is a great app for downloading all your articles ahead of time. - Consistently updated - Quick response from developers. If you do run into a website that doesn’t always show the “full-text”, you can quickly share the website with the developers and they will be quick to respond!
