good google reader app?

brendan10211 · Mar 1, 2012

My question was how small it was, compared to some fonts in the reader app.

Too small, something like 2mm in height. I don't have the reader currently. Are you using newsrob? It's not that difficult and time consuming to install it and check yourself.

I don't have Internet on my nook most of the time I actually want to do something, sorry.

Also, half the apps don't show up in my market for some reason.

Anyway, next topic.

I have to write it again, because it is so nice for nst: rssdemon is sleek, highly customizable (groups, fonts etc.) with good preview and functioning page down and up on nst. I have tried several ones, I'll stay with this one.

I have tried gReader yesterday and it seems it has everything I need - synchronization with google reader, supports hardware buttons for scrolling, simple UI, configurable font size and the ability to send selected articles to instapaper. I think I will stick with this one.

I have Pulse installed on mine, only that it's an older version of it that I download somewhere. Try some apk's, one for sure will work but the market version won't.

Could you please tell what version of Pulse works or share the .apk? I'm having trouble finding a previous Pulse version.

I'm curious as well!

I tried a couple of Pulse versions. 2.0.1 seems to work and 2.4.3 and up doesn't. 2.0.1 supports importing feeds from Goolge Reader and logging into the Facebook feed but not logging into pulse.me.

I am trying rssdemon, but does not seem to work properly. I cannot use it well in off-line mode, while some of the articles aren't fully downloaded, just ending with three points after some sentences. May I forgotten to set something? Instapaper mobilizer.

By the way, even the "very big" font size is not big enough for me for comfortable reading, and the font color doesn't seem to be really "black" but "dark-gray" (with least contrast on NST).

I've tried rssdemon. It works very well except text color is not black even with "white/black" theme.
Maybe someone can modify apk file.

Hello,
I am mostly finishing my colaboration with GoodNews dev, and we got this app, supports side buttons, and if on botton of article "lower" button is pressed, it goes to next article, and oppositely.

The apk: here
The dev said it will be also added to future releases. Please note it is a beta of beta 5, which introduces tablet layout.

For me it works, but you better just download the latest version from google play, as it just has been updated.

Offline support?

How good is the offline image support? I've had mixed experiences with this in the past in other devices.

Hello everyone, does anyone have a problem with syncing any app to Google Reader on 1.2.1? I cannot do it, no matter which app i use. I even cant make apps connect to GDrive.

EDIT: I have semi-solved this issue. RssDemon is working perfectly, supports buttons, fling scrolling works, only greader does not work. But this in not issue. As for Google Drive, Kingsoft office works pretty well, plus Dropbox, and it even lets me print via Google Print.

Why don't you guys try JustReader? I think it's the best google reader app for now.

Google Reader is dead

Any ideas for apps to use on rooted nook when Google Reader dies?

I am trying to set up an account with NewsBlur and try Blar (open source app that will work on ANdroid 2.1) but NewsBlur keeps going down for maintenance...

I hope something gets figured out, I use NewsRob every morning on my way to work to read a ton of articles offline. Google Reader and Cool Reader are really the only reasons I have to stay rooted....

Everybody talks about Feedly as a replace for Google Reader, but...
It isn't.
On a browser, you need a plug-in just to access the web mode (wonder why?!?!).
On android the app isn't compatible with nook and on the other devices is buggy, sluggish and full of problems.
All the others are web based only.
I use gReader as I like the list mode they use and works very well on offline.
Pulse is awful, I hate those tiles.
Thank you, Google, for letting me down.
I bought an NST specifically to be able to read my feeds using gReader.
'Sigh'!

good google reader app?
