For RSS feed readers, there is no better app for Apple devices than Reeder. The best RSS app has gotten even better with Reeder 3 for OS X, which brings a new design and multiple themes, OS X 10.11 El Capitan compatibility and many other new features.
The new app is much faster to launch and use than before. The Yosemite/El Capitan type graphics make it pleasing on the eye. The transparency/blur effects make it seem like a native app rather than a third party one.
Reeder supports almost all popular RSS feed reading apps. Digg is not part of the list.
- Feedbin
- Feedly
- Feed Wrangler
- FeedHQ
- NewsBlur
- The Old Reader
- Inoreader
- Minimal Reader
- BazQux Reader
Self hosted service Fever is also supported.
Following ‘read later’ services are supported. Readability can also be used to read full length articles without opening a browser. Useful for feeds in which websites only show a summary.
- Readability
- Instapaper
The new update also has multiple themes and customization options so you have the option to disable the transparency effects if you don’t like them.
Here is the complete list of updates in Reeder 3:
- Ready for OS X El Capitan - More themes - Updated UI - Support for sharing extensions - Unread and starred counts for smart folders - Hide smart folders in unread/starred view if there are no unread/starred items - Private browsing support (see Settings > Reading) - Display the URL in the status bar when hovering a link in the article viewer or browser - New article viewer display settings: separate font and uppercase options for the title - Fullscreen now also works when in minimized layout mode - New “Archive” folder in “All items” view mode which only shows read items (no unread or starred) - Pull to next/previous article
Fixed: - Inoreader authentication - Incorrect unread/starred counts - Reeder now uses San Francisco as UI font on El Capitan - Full screen split view on El Capitan - Various visual glitches on El Capitan - Adding a Feedly account using Google is now correctly reported as sign in from Mac (not iPhone)
I have been using Reeder 3 through out the beta with my Feedly account and love the app. Reeder 3 is available in the Mac App Store for $9.99 and is worth every cent. For existing Reeder 2 users, the new version is a free update.
Highly recommended!
