To mention the most interesting ones: you can enable offline reading and the automatic download of articles (always or only when connected to Wi-Fi), change auto-update intervals, define cache behavior, or even change the user agent to get the desktop version of sites instead of the mobile version. You can open them from the start screen and continue by picking one of the available preference groups. It should come as no surprise that the general options are plenty as well. You may use it to hide some controls, the zoom buttons for instance, define a double tap action such as toggle staring or saving, or disable the in-app browser so that the system browser is used automatically. The article controls screen which you find listed in the menu as well lists general customization options. Save the page to the device for future access, add tags to it, disable the showing of images, or customize the font type. This too happens near instantly and makes for a great experience.Ī tap on the menu icon at the top opens even more options.

Other controls offered by gReader include adding the article to your favorites or marking it read, increasing or decreasing the view, displaying it in full screen mode, using services like translate, or sharing it. You can add items to a playlist, and have them all read to you in the background afterwards. A tap on the audio icon opens the voice reader which reads the article to you using German, English, Spanish, French or Italian audio packs. You can read the article directly using it, switch to web feed almost instantly to display the native website instead in the viewer and not the feed, or tap on a button to load the website in the default system browser. You may change the sorting order from newest to oldest, disable "rich list" which does away with the first couple of words of an article to only display titles in the listing, or enable mark on scroll to automatically mark articles read when you scroll past them.Ī tap on an article loads it quickly in an integrated browser. The customization does not end there though. The app displays articles in list format by default, but you can change that to grid or card format instead. It does so silently and incredibly fast, and I was surprised the first time it happened that it pulled the articles already from added feeds.Īs far as options are concerned, you can display articles from individual feeds, or a combined feed. Once you have added one or more feeds to the application, it starts to pull articles from those feeds automatically. Search is probably faster than typing feed urls directly, and a quick test revealed that it finds many feeds including ours (yay). The second option is excellent if you are already using a desktop feed reader and want the same feeds in gReader as well.

You use the built-in search or browser to find feeds of interest.

You load an opml file that is stored on your Android device.You type the feed url directly on the "add subscription" screen.I have only tested local feeds in gReader as I don't have a Feedly or The Old Reader account. The application supports the two online services Feedly and The Old Reader, and local feeds. There is a lot to like about the program and I will mention features later on in the review. When it comes to feed readers for Android, gReader is probably the highest rated that you can find on Google Play right now. You may want to check out alternatives such as FeedMe or Palabre. Update: gReader is no longer available and development seems to have stopped completely. While I don't read feeds regularly on my Android mobile, I do it from time to time, especially when I'm traveling as it allows me to sort through the list of articles to find those I'm interesting in.

One of the first programs that I fire up in the morning is QuiteRSS, my Windows feed reader of choice, and it is hundreds of articles on feeds that I have a subscription for that I read after checking emails and moderating comments here on this site. I read a lot of feeds throughout the day, and most of them on my desktop PC.
