RSS Follower App Reviews
chicken of tomorrow
En français !
I might be the only one, but I prefer to not have to use another app, in a way of saying. I’d love it if this application should send any RSS articles to the notification center. Therefore allowing me not to really use this application, just let it run in the background feeding my notification center with RSS articles. That said, it’s a nicely built app, very clean and seems to adhere with most of the Apple development and design guidelines, which makes the app feel more native to the operating system. Nice work everyone, though sorry to say that I won’t be using it until tighter notification center integration is added.
Needs a little work.
I cant veiw article is the feed no more, it will not take me to the direct website page, plus sometimes the feed is not on my desktop. it worked better when i first bought it.
OK as a reader but bait and switch on cost
I had used Shrook but when we got a new desktop Shrook wouldn't run. After reading up on RSS readers I chose RSS Follower. It is marketed as "free" but what it doesn't make clear is that the free version is limited to 3 feeds. If you want more it's $4.99. The basic function of reading articles works fine but several features are lacking. I've not been able to figure out how to flag articles and the Help function is usseless on that issue. I also have not figured out how to clean up the feed to remove older articles that I'm not interested in. Again, Help is useless. I don't want to sink a ton of time into trying to figure it out or get a different RSS reader so I guess I'll live with the inconvenience.
If you need a fast and easy RSS reader, congratulations you just found it.
For me, I didn't need anything fancy or super beautiful. I just needed an RSS reader that can load some details from my feeds, update every minute and just be easy to reach. Short and direct to the point. There are so many RSS reader out there, fancy and luxurious; I didn't need any of those. I needed something to load fast, run fast, update fast and just give me the titles. RSS Follower rescued me from months of searching. I'm using the free version and I'm absolutely happy. Highly Recommended.
It works fine, but how to delete feeds?
I receive my news regularly. I works fine. But when I want to delete feeds and feed suppliers it does not clearly show how or where to do it. Now I'm receiving feeds that I'm no longer interested in. Some technical assistance would be most appreciated.
Just Keeps Krashing ;o(
Bummer! looked great at first… but just pinwheels & pinwheels & pinwheels. If you want a pinwheel app or something that just freezes your desktop for a while… this is the app to get ;o( ~ still on the hunt for a great news rss reader… wish I could get my money back since it doesn’t work… $$
Great app, missing folder function
Great smooth app – could you add a folder / category function to divide by topic? Otherwise overwhelming. Also, keyboard shortcut to reveal the RSS tab would be much appreciated. Using mouse is clunky…?
Tighter Notification Center Integration
I might be the only one, but I prefer to not have to use another app, in a way of saying. I’d love it if this application should send any RSS articles to the notification center. Therefore allowing me not to really use this application, just let it run in the background feeding my notification center with RSS articles.
