Reeder4.2.2

Almost perfect app! Unfortunately since "upgrading" to Mojave, I can't use the "add to reading list" feature which is a real shame. Hope the developer resolves this in the next update.

good app, very poor support. never got an answer for a question. automatic update for feedly still disabled - way too long.

Wish I could rate Reeder higher, but Silvio Rizzi’s lack of interest in even responding to his customers really lets him down. Silvio seems to have taken a leaf out of David Watanabe’s book, a developer of the previously well loved RSS reader, NewsFire, what is it about RSS developers…? Breezing through a huge list of news feeds is simple, it’s all made easy thanks to the keyboard shortcuts. The built in web scraper is great. But then the built in WebKit view is terrible. Reeder has obviously had a lot of love in the past, but now it feels neglected, like Silvio has gotten bored of the project and quietly moved on. The best thing would be for the developer to sell Reeder on to someone who will polish up the great application he’s already made. Please, Silvio, do it for us!

Fast and efficient, the developper has published a new version of Reeder that replaces the deprecated Readability with another parser. He would certainly have avoided my profound disappointment and the my scathing review here below by pushing this update just a few days earlier and before the end of Readability's parser. Yes, a developper is just a human being after all, but my previous experiences with Rizzi's entirely inexistant customer relationship has exhausted my trust a long time ago…

Great software ! Love it

Brilliant app but the developer simply DOES NOT reply to any of my questions. I've been sending emails to mac@reeder.ch and I continue to be ignored. NOT GOOD SERVICE!!

Awesome. And free from V2. Shut up and take my money.

Very nice rss reader.

Simply excellent!!! Is there a way to make items be viewed with Readability by default?

Long time Reeder user on iOS and Mac. Not a huge fan of Feedly web interface so was happy to see that Reeder 2 for mac had been released. Love the simplicity of the interface and UI aesthetic.

I'm glad Reeder went away for awhile. Gave me the opportunity to tryout NewsBar. I can't see going back to Reeder now. The way NewsBar does things is just more conducive to my workflow.

Was a long-time user of Reeder (Mac and iOS), and even purchased Reeder 2 for iOS after having moved everything to Sunstroke following the Google Reeder shutdown. Despite Reeder's slick UI, I opted to stay with Sunstroke and will stick with ReadKit on my MacBook. My main gripe has to do with the relative lack of transparency from the developer. Bug reports and feedback to the developer go un-answered (an acknowledgement of receipt would be nice), and updates tend to be few and far between, leaving bugs and performance issues to linger for months. I've no problem paying for an upgrade to support Silvio but I need to know that support will be reciprocal.

Reeder is back. 2.0 is smooth, quick, easy to use. It was my old standby and it is once again my go-to news reader. I gladly purchased the new version. Silvio labored to develop the new Reeder and is deserving of our purchases. Ten bucks well spent.

Today Reeder 2.0 is out of beta so great news for Reeder addicts. Well I was one but IMHO the dev Silvio Rizzi went nuts by asking money again for this update. After withdrawing Reeder 1 from the MAS a year ago and a long silence we have a version 2 which brings not much new features except functionality to sync RSS again. Decide yourself and read this review carefully http://www.macstories.net/reviews/reeder-2-for-mac-review/

Actually running 2.0b7 here, dunno why MU is behind… I, too, switched to ReadKit, which is a great app; but since 2.0b3, I've found Reeder plenty functional enough to once again handle my daily reading. Nothing against ReadKit, it's a great app, but Reeder has always had a simple elegance that's unique. If Apple had designed an RSS reader, it would be something like Reeder.

Mmh.. kinda glad too.. but I moved to ReadKit since.. I feel like an old girlfriend is calling me back.. after leaving me without a word.. puzzled. You hurt me babe !

Reeder is BACK!!!! HOORAY!!!!!!

I am so glad Reeder for Mac is back! Happy!

New beta out today. Looks excellent.

It took a while to get a new version, but it's back! It seems that I missed it, too. Already using it several times in the first day. Still has a beta feel to it, but no major issues. Seems fast and retains a minimalist layout despite supporting several RSS aggregators and their nuances.

I use Feedwrangler and I don't see why Reeder (on any platform apparently) can't tell me how many unread articles I have in my smart streams. For this reason I shall continue to use Readkit on Mac, Mr Reader on iPad (with the awesome iOS7 skin you can download). I don't do much RSS reading on iPhone but I still have Reeder going here. I've been a Reeder fan for years so I hope this feature gets added back.

Sheesh, finally....

Really happy with this. I bought the iPad version first, then the iPhone version. Held off on the Mac version for awhile as it seemed to be a little light on features, but I took another look yesterday and liked what I saw. I've got about 60-75 feeds I subscribe to in Google Reader. Everything loaded up as expected, with all my folders intact (and everything sorted properly). I do wish I could sort feeds/folders within Reeder itself, but as I understand, Google Reader has no official API; all third party clients rely on reverse-engineered specs, so it's a bit of a miracle that everything works as well as it does. I can do everything except rearrange the orders of feeds/folders within Reeder. Really nice UI — and I'm not just saying it's pretty (though it *is* pretty). The layout and interactions are all very well thought-out and implemented. It adapts nicely to changes in window and pane width (e.g. the list of feeds collapses to a column of icons if you make it really narrow). You can also collapse the viewer pane for a really compact view. After using NetNewsWire for ~8 years, Reeder feels refreshingly modern.

This is the best RSS reader on the Mac!

I really like this app. The iPhone version has the ability to work with Fever. I hold my fingers that support for this will arrive in the Mac version as well.

I have this on my iPad as well as on my iPhone. I held out for the Mac version until it matured. I can now say this is the best RSS reader on the Mac. I am happy I no longer have to use the web interface for Google Reader. It's even better since the price went down from it's original $9.99 to $4.99. Well worth it!

Works pretty well, just a few glitches time to time. but i still feel NetNewsWire is more solid (while less pretty).

This is one of the best apps I have. I've tried other RSS readers but this has the slickest interface. Both on Mac and iOS.

It's good and looks lovely and has loads more features than Netnewswire but I still prefer the NNW experience for readability, usability when monitoring large numbers of feeds and for its options to open multiple tabs which, unless I've missed it, isn't a feature that Reeder has. The iPhone / iPad version on the other hand is fantastic and has replaced NNW, which I've never felt has worked properly as a mobile interface.

it's one the best apps... but crashes on start on Mountain Lion DP2 :(

You won't believe the number of trackers this software has attached to it. If you monitor it's network traffic, you'll be shocked at what it's doing. In addition, it's connection to google reader is about as insecure as it gets. Beware that whatever you're reading is being tracked.

I am amazed at all the high ratings for this app - a pretty UI does make a good newsreader - what is noteworthy is that there is almost as much functionality missing as there are 'features' - and that is before we get to the bugs. Gruml is a MUCH better, full featured newsreader with a modern Mac UI, has all the functionality missing from this app and it is FREE. Anyone that is prepared to pay $10 for this, contact me, I have some great tickets for the maiden voyage of a ship called Titanic.

Probably the best rss reader, very nice user interface ! But can someone tell me how am i supposed to delete the old feeds after reading it ?

I wish it could rename subscriptions. Really dislike having to go to Google Reader just for that. Otherwise, been following since beta, and am really pleased with the current price and how consistently great this app is.

BEST RSS Reader by a MILE !!

Great App.Easy to use,nice GUI,very good in every way.

Probably my all-time favorite app. Can't recommend it highly enough. Quick, very nice with the iOS versions, light-weight and beautiful. It's perfect for me, but given the commitment of development I have no doubt it will become even better.

i've been a longtime netnewswire user and this is the first rss reader for mac that's matched it for the features i need/use. so for that alone it gets 5-stars. however, i will deduct 1-star for the following minor niggles (FR=Feature Request): - BUG: moving to next article too quickly will cause articles to not get marked as read. - FR: ability to use custom css - FR: keyboard shortcut to go to next UNREAD item - FR: mark the article in the list as read AFTER it is deselected (when you go to the next article), so if i "Clear Read Items", it doesn't remove the currently selected article. - FR: upon startup immediately go to first unread item or last group viewed - FR: growl notification with # of new items when feed is automatically refreshed - FR: keep selected article near top of pane (with only 1 or 2 read articles above it) so it lines up with the tile on the right preview pane (so eyes don't have to jump from middle left to top right). also make it so that the list rolls up/down and the selection stays in place (similar to date rollers in iOS). - FR: ability to refresh non-G.Reader feeds and sync with G.Reader at the same time. (for the record, every mac rss reader i've seen does one or the other, but not both.) - FR: option to hide broken images - FR: even larger font size in article list pane so while there's still some room for improvement, for me reeder is one of the best rss readers that integrates with Google Reader. (for comparison, i would rate netnewswire 4-stars as well.)

Probably the best RSS reader or rather Google Reader frontend on the Mac right now…! Well worth the price, even though some people may be spoilt by 99 Cent iOS apps by now…!? Only thing missing for me right now is the option to share to Facebook, which is kinda weird since it's available on both the iPhone and the iPad version…

Awesome newsreader : )

Best RSS reader with GReader integration!

Awesome Google Reader client. Own both iPhone and iPad editions. No other Reader client comes even close. Both features and GUI is the best. And the price?? Free of course, at least in the Beta periode. /RasmusJ, rasmusj.com

The GUI is outstanding, but I have written this developer on several occasions to determine whether Reeder will be released in final form as a MAS only with no response. This is important as MAS is currently not an option for me. I have deleted Reeder as I do not wish to keep using an app they might potentially be unavailable to me and therefor waste my time (too bad, as I like Reeder a lot). There seems to be a trend here at MU where some developers are putting their betas out to pubic via MU, but then release as MAS only. Essentially, they are using MU the way people appear to be using Best Buy: go to Best Buy and see whether you like a product; go home and order it from Amazon. MU becomes free PR for MAS developers.

I just replaced Gruml with Reeder, it is really the best Google RSS reader I've come across so far. Now only the features need to be completed...

Insane UI!!! But the lack of Combined-View and Tabs is a deal breaker...

Very Nice app but it's miss Add subscription get it and it will be 5 stars

Nice app. But the meaningful updates are getting few and far between. Reeder is still missing core functionality. For example, one still cannot add feeds via Reeder. Instead, one must log into Google and add them there. That's getting a bit tiresome ...

Please add Growl... where do I pay for this? :)

Goodbye NetNewsWire is all I have to say! Just five minutes with this little gem and all I can say is WOW! My new default newsreader. Where do I pay? :) Can't say about value and stability yet but the rest is definitely five stars for me.

I use Reeder on the iPad and iPhone. The Mac version is just as good. It's not the most fully featured RSS reader, but it's quick, slick, and stable. I'll definitively be buying version 1.

I like it. It’s sleek and snazzy, but one thing really bugs me: there is no scrollbar in the story list. If you don’t have an Apple mouse and don’t use your trackpad, have a third-party mouse with a scroll wheel, or even just prefer having scrollbars (the latter two describe me), then you are SOL, it seems (get to mouse-wheel scrolling if you need to find something farther down the list). The custom scrollbar on the story pane itself is nice. Could we get one of those—or an option for one of those—in the story list, too? This would make me very happy. 8) Good start to what I’m sure will be a very popular app.

Wow - yesterday I dumped NetNewsWire Premium on my iPhone for Reeder. Today, I dumped NetNewsWire for this app - Reeder. Very simple to use and fast. I love it. Try it - it is free after-all! I'd gladly pay for these two apps!

This is a really great application. I've tried out NetNewsWire, Gruml, and Vienna before settling in on Reader. Now Reader is my favorite. What really set the application apart for me was the look and functionality of the user interface. I really appreciate that the develop did something different. It's cleaner looking then the others and comes off simple to use, but maintains essential functionality without overwhelming the user. What that boils down to is an app that doesn't get in your way. Like others have noted, it's hard to believe its beta. While it doesn't have all of its intended features at this stage, it never felt like a beta app. Very usable beta. Really great execution so far. I'm really looking forward to the continued development of this application.

I think this is the BEST feed reader for Mac OS as occurs in iOS. GREAT! And still in beta !!

I'll have to review this again when it reaches a more finished form, but I'm liking what I see so far. I've tried for years to use an RSS reader, and Reeder for iPhone is the only one I've stayed with for any significant amount of time. Reeder for mac has all the simplicity and elegance of the iPhone app, but it's on my Mac! I'm looking forward to being able to use this, but it's too much of an alpha app right now... keep up the good work!

Draft 5 came out today with full integration of the Readability service. You can choose to have Reeder load pages with Readability, rather than in their original form, in the background, you can set clicking on article links to default to the Readability view, and can activate the Readability view with a hotkey. Articles look beautiful with Readability, as the service is integrated directly into the app (rather than Reeder simply loading the article's web page with the Readability modifications applied). They appear on Reeder's lovely old paper brown background with the font you set in the preferences. In fact, they look exactly like articles from full-text feeds do in Reeder (minus any adds that may appear in the full-text feeds). Anyway, for me this is the single greatest feature in the history of RSS readers. I used to go for a similar effect with the Instapaper Mobilizer service in Reeder, but Readability works better with more pages and is tightly integrated into the app. As of today, I'm completely sold on Reeder and won't hesitate to buy it when it comes out of beta.

I'm happy with it so far, but I do wish I could open multiple tabs for different articles (like Netnewswire). Growl Support?

I trashed Socialite in favor of this app. Reeder is beautiful! I can't wait to see what the release version will contain if these are the first alpha builds. I've had no issues with stability nor excessive memory usage.

Very nice--looks extremely promising so far. The interface is beautiful and functional. On the whole I find it provides a much pleasanter RSS experience than Gruml, Vienna, or NetNewsWire (which isn't meant as an insult to any of these excellent apps). I also particularly like the ability to load up articles in the Instapaper Mobilizer view, a beautifully minimal and ad-free way to read articles. Unfortunately, there's currently no way to invoke Mobilizer with a hotkey. Hopefully a future revision will implement this ability, either by allowing configuration of hotkeys for the web-based services, or perhaps by allowing the user to set the Mobilizer article view as the default. I'm looking forward to future development on Reeder!

fast, very clean and usable. Some little bugs (enormous RAM usage the most annoying) but I'm sure they will be fixed soon.

A very good start. Mammoth RAM hit but that'll be dealt with I'm sure.

Requires automatic translation subscriptions to various languages.

Very nice so far. Seems to be doing for Google Reader what Sparrow is doing for Gmail (very similar interface). Thanks!

Buena imagen. Good look. Seria bueno posible pagina traducida a español. Somos muchos millones los usuarios que hablamos castellano. Salud y buena suerte. Gracias por todo. Sois los mejores.

Nice job!

Wow! It sure is fast. Feels a little clunky to operate though, not giving up on NNW just yet.
