Needs Work since iOS 11.4 release

Currently does not seem to be able to retain new feeds, as well as presenting http://null and not allowing a delete.

Works, needs a couple of extra features.

This seems to be the only RSS reader that can sync between devices using iCloud, rather than requiring the user to pay for a third party sync service. The sync works, but it feels laggy at times. Switching quickly between iPad / iPhone can result in read items on one showing up as unread on the other. The app would benefit from a visual indicator to show when sync is happening. A dark / night mode theme would be a welcome addition as all the bright white can get retina-searing on a big screen. There seems to be a bug in the current version with the built in webview - opening an article's webpage, causes previously read items to be reinserted into the feed, after the item you've just read, when returning to article list view.

NewsBar

I've been using for several months & does the job well in my iMac, MBA, iPad & iPhone. I like it a lot!

Everything Covered!

Finally a RSS reader that has everything I need; solid feed reader, keyword filter, background refresh and notifications! Excellent app to tell me when new items arrive that meets my criteria. Well done! Would love next version to have ability to change the sound in notification centre, to make new items even more obvious. Thanks.

Love it... All platforms

Great app. I love that I can now have it on all devices nicely sync'd.

Good starting point

Been waiting for the iOS version for a while and glad it's finally here. Hoping for keyword push notification to be implemented in a future update.
