An Otter RSS Reader Reviews

何これ

okjmkj on

Japan

RSS登録しても、記事一覧として表示されるのは最初の一画面分だけ。下にスクロールしてみると何も表示されていない。何だこれと思って上に戻ってみるとついさっきまで表示されていた記事一覧すら消えて、ただ真っ白な画面になる。 表示されないだけで一応はそこにある(タップすると反応する)のだが、まあまともに使えたモノではない。

Rigid date recognition

It only handles very specific date formats, so many rss feeds don’t get proper timestamp information. Will be looking for a different app

Abandoned Gem app

dgherastovschi on

It’s been my favorite app I used to use for years. But it’s been long abandoned for 2 years now since last update. Sad to see you go bud.

Good App, but Naggy

Submit!1! on

United States

This is actually a good app, but any app that nags for a review automatically gets a 1-star from me.

Not bad for an early release (updated)

Heftybags on

United States

Original review below is over 2 years old and it's been over a year since an update. An abandoned app can't be anything more than 1 star. Already after one update many of the request I and others have been added as well as comlaints being addressed. Updating to 5 stars. Check app update history for what's been addressed. The reader mode is nicest I've seen so far. You can create folders and move your feeds into them, you can import opml from other apps which maintains folder hierarchy if that app supports folders. What it needs. Mark articles read on scrolling past them Option to hide read articles by default instead of manually hiding all the time. When clicking on a top level folder it expands the folder clicking the arrow should expand the folder. There is no way to view all stories in a top folder. For example I have a tech folder and have to go to every single sub folder and read the stories I should be able to just click the tech folder and see the stories in that folder. Needs swipe gestures example swipe right mark read/unread swipe left add to favorite. When viewing stories there is about a quarter inch of empty space on the left and right making appear almost window boxed. The story headlines should go the width of the screen to see more words in the title. Need to add an option to sort by oldest and newest first. If in reader mode hitting the safari button should open in the in app browser instead of leaving the app. If we want to leave the app from that screen the safari button should open in your default browser. Under notifications there should be an option to show badge count with unread articles. Should be an option to see favicons to the left of the headline to quickly see at a glance which site posted the story as well as an option to enable images if there is one in the story. Either a small image to the right of the headline or a large image below the headline. All in all it's a really good start it's just not ready to be my main RSS app for now I'm sticking with Reeder and NetNewsWire. I am going to keep Otter installed and look forward to future updates.

OK. Now what?

No guide, insructions, in app. Website menu bar nonfunctional. Looks like it might be interesting. but unless I know how to use it, so what?!

Inconsistent function

Raantuva on

United States

The ability to subscribe to a feed from Safari is very inconsistent. I love this app but it only seems to work when it feels like it. Please fix that. :) - Update: it keep completely dumping my feeds now. To the point I've lost a lot of feeds for no reason. I'll save them, go to another app, come back and they're gone. ALSO, I notice a parallel between when I leave this app and have this issue and keyboard malfunctions. Something is going goofy. Still like the app but it's unstable so I'll have to use something else for now. Which is sad. This is the closest thing to Google Reader I've seen since they shut that down. 😭

You Otter try this guy

It's exceedlingly simple. If you are just trying to read your news, saved reddit posts (what I use it for), or your journal articles without being to fussy or fancy. This is the app for you.

Crashes

More attractive and better UI than most other RSS apps, but unfortunately crashes anytime I try to play a video
