NewsBar RSS reader App Reviews

Too old, too slow, too dark. PS For iCloud sync you must turn iCloud Drive on. Or its not work with iOS 9.

Now it fails every time in portrait orientation then I reed a news

Developer, thanks for the prompt addressing the bug! Im enjoying the app again. Its really great to have all RSS feeds synced with my MacBookPro and iPad via iCloud.

The update was stated to add Notification Center support, but I have seen no evidence of that. Newsbar cannot be found in the Notification settings and I have received none despite having keywords set up. Despite the fallacious claim, the app is excellent overall.

Overall design is quite good and well thought out. I do have issues with the fact that too often the original story is not retrievable and refreshment of stories is inconsistent, it best.

Adding new feeds is needlessly complex, or Im too stupid to figure it out. One thing Im absolutely certain of, I know how to touch the screen. Yet for some reason when I roux the settings or back button it takes a few tries to hit just the right spot to get the app to react the way you think it should. Now that Ive spent six (6!) hours tracking down the exact URL for every feed I follow it works fairly well. I just wish it were easier to use.

I really like this app but....its constantly crashing! I have the first IPad mini running iOS 7. I have read there are many problems with apps crashing with ios7. A fix gets it to five stars.

I have this rss feeder for my iMac and love it. I then downloaded it for iPad and love that it syncs for both. But, there is a big bug... when you turn the app in landscape, the app crashes every time. Also, sometimes news links cause the app to crash when the page loads, especially if there is a video. It would be better if the links open the page through Safari, rather than its own page within the app. Other than that. Im very pleased and will continue to use this excellent rss app.

Cant use this as it crashes every time i try to use it

This biggest impression this app leaves on one is that it is balky, scrolling stalls often, after clicking on a story within an individual feeds listing, it oftens fail to load without clicking on another story first, then again on that story. Unlike many other iOS RSS readers, tweeting from the title listing (w summary) that appears on the right after tapping on the listed story results in an "empty" tweet. Issues.

Good app, but needs work .. No notifications! Please fix

Excellent app that keeps improving over time. No accounts needed - syncs your feeds over icloud. Target areas for the buttons seems small or off a bit. Otherwise keep supporting this developer - this is the rss reader app to have on iOS and Mac.

The Mac edition works great but iPhone app still needs work. Notifications missing and sharing options need work.

I have this app on my Mac Book Pro, my iPhone and iPad and love it on all 3. Easy to use.

The synch with iCloud is great but the look and feel is kind of poor.

I had been an NewsBar (Mac App) user for a while and love it. But then, I wanted to have all my content on my iPhone too while on the go. This apps are the best RSS clients ever. No ads, no accounts, its so much better than those other ones. iCloud sync some what works and it could be enhanced and improved for live sync, iCloud sync its the my only concern, everything else is perfect! So "Five Stars" for this App...

This app is very very well designed, and I am a bit picky when it comes to apps. Very intuitive and great features and clean layout that makes it easy and pleasurable to scroll through the news. Wonderful job ladies and gents.

iCloud sync works well and app looks good. But wont use this app without one-touch sending to Pocket. Hope you can add that devs.

No accounts needed, syncs with iCloud, and has a wonderful desktop equivalent. I love this app.

Now on all my devices. Simple, reliable and useful. Responsive developer.
