#REEDER 5 SOFTWARE#

I like what I’ve seen so far, and I’m happy to give it a try as my main RSS reader. However, the design and presentation of articles in Reeder is more attractive, and it has far fewer, and far-less-confusing settings, while still being customizable in the areas that I care about. I sorely miss this feature in Reeder and am looking for other ways to get Twitter content into Reeder. This lets me follow people without diving into the toxic waste pool of Twitter itself. News Explorer offers another key feature, which is the ability to follow Twitter feeds as well as RSS feeds. And when I marked all of my articles read on my Windows, after the initial import, this did not sync with my phone until I manually synced the feeds again on the Windows. Unlike News Explorer, updates made on one platform in Reeder do not sync instantly with other platforms. Comparing the two, Reeder has a ways to go. The first widely-used RSS reader to do this was News Explorer. With the addition of iCloud sync, you now get that for free, under your own control and, in my experience, faster than the 3rd-party services. Until recently, you needed to subscribe to a 3rd-party service to have your RSS feeds be synced across devices. It’s available as a one-time purchase for 9.99 on the Mac and for 4.99 on iPhone and iPad. Note on the bottom that Reeder still supports 3rd party services but Fever API is missing from the list. Reeder 5 is a new app and therefore a new purchase.

This is why Im here: a great software for writers just makes me so happy. Reeder 5 - for the first time it brings its own feed sync options using iCloud. I love the beautiful clean design that focuses on the content you want to read. Heres a news-reading, information-gathering, research-collating gem: Reeder 5 for.

This means I can set my always-on computer at home to fetch updates every 15 minutes, and then turn fetch off on my laptop and phone so they just sync to iCloud.

Reeder is one of the classic RSS readers for Microsoft’s platforms. One thing Reeder 5 does that has made me very happy is that you can set clients not to fetch the feeds.
