Progress on the new app has been a bit slower than I hoped over the last couple of weeks. It’s not quite beta yet as some parts are still missing or work in progress. However, I’m starting to open up access to the TestFlight builds anyway (limited number of slots, more in the coming weeks). Just don’t expect too much yet.

Join the Reeder. beta

Available on iOS

@rizzi Well, still seams to be inaccessible with VoiceOver :(
@rizzi We like it when you communicate Silvio, we need more engagement from you no matter how small you might think it is. You have a huge following and your apps are amazing. #Reeder
@rizzi Do you plan to retire sync servers?
@rizzi Super excited to use this app and learn how it changes my consumption of the internet at large! Glad I got in the TestFlight!

@rizzi Ah, too late for this TestFlight slot 😢

Hope I’ll do better at the next opportunity…

(Reeder is in my top 3 of most used apps on iPhone/iPad)

@rizzi welp, this might replace my janky YouTube -> podcast setup
@rizzi it’s a great start! Just seeing my Bluesky posts with Mastodon is big.
@rizzi oooh exciting! Looks like I didn’t make it in time but looking forward to the new version!
@rizzi ah too bad for me, it is Apple only. Does anyone know an alternative for droids?
@rizzi oooh, this is exciting. Reeder is one of my favourite apps, and I can't wait to see what you've been working on 🤩
@rizzi Thanks for continuing on this amazing piece. I've been using Reeder since v2.1.2 and it's not replaceable. The beta is full now and I hope to get on it later
@rizzi Is it possible to create my own private rss feed for example in json format and share it via iCloud Drive so I can read it in reeder locally only?

@rizzi I absolutely love it so far. You have an awesome sense for simplicity and design. This will be the new home for Mastodon, RSS and Youtube for me.

My wishlist for making it perfect for me:

- customizing feed names
- customizing feed icons (if missing)
- custom feed folders
- excluding feed folders from home
- import / export opml
- adding bookmarks via share sheet from other apps / websites

Do you share some roadmap of features you're working on?

@rizzi
- pull to refresh
@rizzi I am still hoping that Reeder won’t become move to a subscription plan and will remain a one-time-purchase for iPhone (and another OTP for Mac)
@rizzi wait for the next chance
@rizzi Any chance of getting more TF spots opened? Would love to help with testing.
@rizzi will there be new slots soon?
@santim @rizzi hope there will be new testflight slots soon!🙇🏻‍♂️
@rizzi since the focus seems to be on media including text, video, and audio, for the audio portion, are you considering an Apple Watch app?
