CloudNews FAQ
Is CloudNews free?
Yes, CloudNews is completely free and it doesn't have any in-app purchases or subscriptions.
Is CloudNews legit?
⚠️ The CloudNews app has poor ratings and negative feedback. Users seem unsatisfied with its performance or features.
This feed reader always was and still is so painfully slow… opening one feed takes 10 to sometimes 30 seconds. Impossible to use! It must be the apps programming which seem to be not very efficient. And no debug logs possible so impossible to check what’s wrong with it. So sad this is still the only option for Nextcloud news on iOS - next to the browser (which at least responds quickly and does not frustrate you, like sitting and spending your life time as with CloudNews).
Fetching takes forever and doesn’t show results half the time
Sadly not a great app. Background refresh doesn’t even work
Seit update Fehler
Seit dem Update gehen 2 meiner feeds nicht mehr. Es werden keine Daten mehr abgefragt.
Disappointing
Terrible user experience, nearly no updates, absolutely not fun to use. Don’t spend the money.
Buggy, far from ready for release
News seem to get synced but some are not visible, increasing the counter for unread items but you will never be able to read them until you check in a webbrowser. Don’t buy this app.
Leider noch eher am Anfang
...denn die Synchronisation funktioniert nur gut korrekt. Gerade bei vielen ungelesenen News werd zwar signalisiert es gibt News, aber es werden keine angezeigt in der App. Außerdem muss dringend was am Design getan werden.
Basic function is there, but not perfect
Yes, it’s possible to read some feeds, but :
Background sync is usually not working (settings are on, also on system side), app freezes quite often, some feeditems are not shown, pictures are often mixed up between different items. It seems the developer is not using this app himself, or he has not the time to maintain it. But it is the Only app in the App Store to read Nextcloud RSS, so THANK YOU for this, even it is not perfect! :)
Not useable
App keeps crashing on start. I can see the splash screen and then I fall back to home screen.
Crashes when reading article
Starting today, e.g. with the latest update, the app crashes when I want to read an article.
Update: Received a workaround within 2 hours of sending the crash report. There is a problem with Hide Read. You have to turn it off until a fix is in place.
So lala
Die App macht, was sie soll, nämlich die Owncloud-News abfragen und anzeigen. Leider gibt es noch viel zu tun. Die Synchronisation hakt manchmal und dann geht nichts mehr. Manchmal wird der Artikel nicht angezeigt, sondern nur leere Programmvariablen. Alternativ kann es auch noch passieren, dass die Liste zu einem anderen Artikel führt. So ist das für mich unbrauchbar und ich logge mich lieber auf der Webseite ein...
Der Benutzerkomfort bleibt leider hinter "kostenlosen" Feedreadern zurück.
