Newsify: RSS Reader Reviews

Used to love this app.

Been using Newsify for years, and I paid for the app. Why am I now being asked to pay again monthly??? Not cool.

Great

Love it how it has the full text on my RSS feeds. It would be great to be able to change the font of the titles, for example to Helvetica

My news reader is the app that I use the most. After trying several readers, Newsify came out on top by far. It has all the tools from curation of the feeds with Feedly to saving and sharing articles. Would love an enhancement to add support for “Apple’s Dynamic Type” Thanks!

This app is very good but...

I threw Pulse away after getting this app. This is probably the best newsreader app available. BUT I wonder why I can ONLY get 10 articles from both Fox News and Blaze. Is this censorship??

the best RSS reader!

I just wish it worked for Craigslist RSS - they never show any updates.

Last update killed it

Crashes frequently. When it doesn't crash, it freezes. Looking for any decent replacement. If I can't find one, I'll go back to reading newspapers. Newsify is no longer worth even the free version.

Great RSS Reader

Love all the options and functionality of this reader. One feature that would be very welcomed is having the option to disabling the picture on articles with a toggle, having the option for all text only. Hope this a feature that the developers can implement soon.

Glitchy and imperfect, but a useful tool

Newsify is a good aggregate source. I like being able to categorize my news (politics, science & tech, etc). However, the app freezes and crashes constantly—especially when I shift between apps. Sometimes it will take 4 or 5 re-openings of an article just to get through it while it’s glitching every 30 seconds. Additionally, a lot of trashy, clickbaity articles show up in my world news folders—ones that are not from my list of preferred sources—as well as entertainment articles. I wish there was a way to report that articles are not aligned with my interests/preferences (or are just plain trash) or are in the wrong categories.

Now ads kill audio

Now, the pop up ads at the bottom override the audio coming from my streaming source. Time to switch to another reader.

Good design but it always crashes

Of all the rss readers I've tried I like this one the best but it has one very annoying issue and one minor issue that rates it only 3 stars with me. The minor issue is the way the viewer handles the controls at the bottom of the screen that allow selecting things like marking an article as unread, selecting the next/previous article, etc. the part that's an issue is the way the design has that area disappear and reappear. The transition between hide/show is too slow and too easy to toggle. So I end up turning it off when I don't want it off and having to tap on the article in just the right place (or more to the point, not in the wrong place) and waiting for some set, slow interval for it to reappear so I can use it. I want it as instantaneous as possible or better yet, I want an option to keep it always displayed. The major issue is that after a period of time the app crashes. It doesn't seem to happen at predictable times. It does recover rather well but it should never have crashed in the first place. Update: the app no longer crashes.
