Hi,
I've tried a number of them so far and none of them are what I want:
gReader for whatever reason deletes a post as soon as you've read it return to the list of articles it didn't do that until this version and I can't figure out how to turn that off, there's no OPML import or export and it seems to not find a single URL I feed it for any new valid feed.
I've tried others but so far none has done what I need it to do, just download feeds, and images, if associated, have links showing, be customizable in that it can be organized into folders for feeds, not take over the entire device while sycing as gReader now all of a sudden does. it's become a huge CPU hog while syncing.
Any and all suggestiosn would be most appreciated.
NewsRob is what I've been using since I got my first Android phone, sounds like it should do what you're looking for and it can sync with Google Reader as well.

Funny, just installed it. How do you import or export an OPML file using this application though?
I have looked extensively for a good rss reader. I found Newsroom to be the best out of all of them. Personal opinion, but give it a try. Its functional, pretty, and works well.

I appreciate the recommendation, only issue with Newsroom is that it doesn't have gReader support. there is a four-month tech support thread that has the devs at the trileet company saying because the back end of Newsroomis proprietary and google reader isn't, that they would lose major functionality.
If they can't support google feeds then it's just not worth it.
I think gReader works great. I was one of the people who pushed for 2 way syncing and he made it happen. As for the article disappearing after you read it and press back, it's been like that for a while. If you want to save it, mark it as unread or star it. This is exactly the same way it works in Google Reader. I add or subtract rss feeds maybe once a year so I don't care how well gReader does it. I can just wait till I get to a real computer and do it there.
I use Greed (Lite) - free in the market. It integrates nicely with google reader, has the ability to follow links, and filter read/unread. Also has widgets that can be placed on your homescreens. No importing/exporting required... just provide your google account info and it syncs all of your feeds/folders.
Its worth a try... doesnt cost anything
Been using FeedR. It does cost some money, but its a very good reader with Google Reader support. Works fast, and looks great.

I currently use gReader. The problem you're describing about articles disappearing is that the app is set on default too only show new articles. The circle icon toggles between showing new articlesand showing all articles. Just toggle that and it will give you back your read articles. The check mark icon is to mark all articles as read. After I'm done skipping through the articles I don't want too read, I mark off all the remaining articles as read so it doesn't show up anymore
ive been using pulse and feedr. and so far. feedr seems to be the best one ive tried
For all you news aggregation aficionados, now that we have a leaked version of Flipboard. What do you prefer Flipboard, Currents, Pulse, or some other app?
I installed Flipboard and played with it for about 30 minutes and went back to currents, It has a nice look and feel but I just prefer currents.
Sound off...
Minimal Reader Pro (even better with v3.0)

Google Reader for the specific feeds I care for.
Google News to have a quick overview of the current (biased) medias.
Russia Today to have proper journalistic reports on world events.
I use flip board mostly on my ipad hated it on my iPhone and the same as the android phone app. I mostly use pulse

I use Currents!
Google Reader. In my opinion, you just can't beat the simplicity and effectiveness of RSS. I do miss GR's shared items, though -- you could run across some good stuff that way.
Pulse and bacon reader, and twitter
Pulse can also take in any rss feed
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using Tapatalk 2
So I went back and played around with it more, and basically ended up with the following reason why I use Currents over Flipboard.
1. Currents converts anything that has an RSS feed into a reader style, Flipboard on some sites will forward you straight to the webpage when you click on a story, that's Kind of annoying.
2. Flipping to see the next story in Flipboard pretty sweet when reading trends, but I prefer a listing format so I can select what I want without flipping through 10 stories.
3. I prefer the way Currents aggregates the individual sites so you can select categories of content.
4. A big one, is that Currents pulls in the pictures from the original story, I found outside of the main cover pic, Flipboard does not pull in the other pictures.
5. No social networking, I prefer to have social networking apps absent of my aggregator. If I want to share I could use Androids built in sharing link and share or send it SMS, DropBox, Drive, Email, Facebook, Twitter..etc. Well Flipboard only allows you to share by email and with Social networking sites connected through Flipboard's Web API..(I hate when I have to do that).
6. In the end I can get to a story faster in Currents than in Flipboard, andI have way more options. Flipboard is more form over function, I like function.
Love Pulse. Ever since the Vibrant days.

Good topic...I have tried many.
1. Flipboard: Loved it on iPhone and just downloaded/installed on Nexus. A little strangeness with the flip action/twitchy pages especially when trying to navigate. It feels like beta. It is so slick on iPhone.
2. Pulse: really like it. Very smooth, well designed and functional. Love the browsing section and how easy it is to add new sources. Attempting post to FB force closes.
3. Taptu: Different from Pulse but looks very similar. Syncs well across devices. G Reader integration is nice.
4. Currents: The look is nice and love its integration to Google but not sold on it yet. It needs something and not sure what. I need to use it more.
5. Feedly: Really like this one my PC but it does not work well on this phone. It seems choppy and attempting FB post does something weird with FB pop up.
6. NYT app: Decent if you only want to read NYT
I keep coming back to Google Reader, can't put my finger on it, it's just simple and works I guess.
Pulse
I've only tried Flipboard and Pulse and they are both great!
Pulse has good UI with ICS theme and I really like the easy "save for later" button!
It also has good offline reader though lately (might be after I rooted my phones)
the scrolling have been less smooth and very laggy and weird! Also the bottom tab pops up all the time which is really annoying!
Flipboard is made for iPhone, but I love the slide left to right to go back option and it really good though I wish there was a "Add to Pocket" button!
Will try the others that you mentioned!
Is there any Pulse-like news web reader? I can't find any good RSS readers for Chrome/windows/web
Just downloaded Google Currents for the market and its really a great application. If you don't know what it is, it's a news/magazine application with tons of different publishers and a beautiful interface. If you haven't checked it out yet I would definitely recommend it!!!

If only they could truly offer full reader integration
Google currents, visually, offer a better reading view of articles (although on certain blogs, it skips pages), I'm disappointed that it doesn't offer a complete Google experience in terms of it's ability to pull from your Reader account. I use Google Reader for all my reading content and just don't understand why Google would release a product that doesn't do what the other apps do - syncing of read and starred articles because I don't like having to go into the Reader app itself or on the web and click "mark all as read."
Flipboard on the other hand, does have a seamless Reader integration system but, I don't like how it aggregates all of the reader items into one feed. I have a time period set for when I read certain articles (news in the morning, tech news in the mid-afternoon, etc.) it's only effective if you don't have a lot of sources in your reader account. Most of the sites offered by Flip I have in my Reader account so separately adding them is redundant.
If only one of the two can make that happen, I'm stuck with the default Reader app. *Sigh*
But if you don't use Google Reader, then either one is excellent, but I favor Flip because it's tad bit faster in performance compared to Currents and it's better integrated read it later services (I use Pocket).
I've had it pull from my reader since I've had it. Under add subscriptions at the bottom of the categories is Google reader. When you do into that category it shows all your reader feeds. Or it used too. I've used it for a long time and did that when I first installed it.
Edit. Just checked, it's still there.

I have used currents since its inception and love it. When flipboard came out I thought I would see what all the rage was so I got it. I put a lit of the same feeds on it as I get on currents and although it is pretty and all that, I find that flipboard will nor get every story from a site that currents gets. When I check gizmodo or cnet or space.com on both readers, flipboard will be missing several articles that currents picks up.
I have installed on both my Galaxy Tab and phone, it's great.

Ah. I see. So when you read an article in currents it marks it as read in Google reader. Yeah. I can see how that would be annoying. I personally spend more time on my phone then on my PC so I don't have that issue. But not everyone does that.

I'm wondering what RSS reader/google reader type apps you guys are using?
I have gReader Pro, Reader HD, FeedR, and NewsRob Pro. I have already also used the default google reader app and Just Reader and a few others. I still haven't found a google reader app that looks and works great. The main issues I have with the listed reader apps are that most don't display images properly, as in 70% of the screen is for the feed but pictures from flickr rss feeds or tumblr only show up as a small box fitting 10% of the screen; tons of unused space. Would be nice for an RSS reader app that smartly adjusted pictures for optimal screen usage.
Wish they'd make Reeder for android, that rss app is nearly perfect.
gReader Pro. Best interface/everything.
Personally I love Reader HD
to each their own.
Reader HD or the official Reader App for me. Maybe flip board when it gets optimized for tablets.
Sent from my Nexus 7 using xda premium
What don't you like about JustReader? My go to tablet reader. Pictures show up pretty good, though not perfect. As for why an app doesn't do what you want it to do, trust me, it's a stupidly hard thing to do. You'd think it would be built in to android to make that an option, but by the time you are allowed to measure pixel size, all the automatic calls have passed. It takes some rewriting of how views measure themselves. I went through that with my Read It Later app I was working on before I canned it when Pocket came out.
For the apps that overcame that issue (JustReader being one of them) you then have the problem of online pictures being small. A 320x480 picture would be about 2.7" diagonally on a 7" 1280*800 screen. If you look at a feed like The Verge that uses large pictures, you will seem them fill edge to edge (on JustReader). However, other places use much smaller pictures. Then you have the problem that a lot of places send smaller pictures over RSS. For example, LifeHacker uses ~600x400 pictures on their website, but half that size on their RSS page. I will say I wish Just Reader handled images a little better in that it still centered the picture above the text (not hard to do, but I guess that was the devs design choice), but it scales pictures up to, but not past the devices native resolution, but it cannot magically make pictures higher res. None of these can. The alternative is super pixelated larger pictures.
*I don't mean to sound like a JustReader fanboy, it's simply the app I use and have experience with. I'm sure many of the other apps handle this the same way. I also feel that this is the most "Reeder" like app I've used. In fact, I prefer it due to the more customizable swipe gestures.

I mean JustReader (no space, my bad). It claims podcast support in the free version, but I've never done that. Always kept podcasts and rss seperate.
gReaderPro. Best RSS reader available for Android from the functionality point of view, if you subscribe to dozens of feeds like I do it is really the way to go. If your RSS needs are more casual stuff like Flipboard and Currents or Pulse may suffice (prettier to look at).

Hello everyone,
I already know the answer to this but do you think there is a way to hack the google books apk to force it to read ePub files? I am currently using adilko as my ereader and its okay but I just love the page turning animation and smoothness of google books. Adilkos animations don't come close to google books.
Anyone know if this can be done?
Does anyone know of any other readers that have a great page turning animation?
Sent from my HTC Sensation 4G using xda app-developers app
I've looked into it and I'm pretty sure there's no way of importing an epub into the Books app. I'm no expert so I don't know how much XDA hacking sweetness would have to go into making it happen if it's even possible in the first place.
I agree though. The animations and stability of Google Books is sweet. Importing and using books from the cloud would be awesome.
the Nook app is the best ive found. not as smooth as google books is, but the the customization, look, and sideloading make it the one i use the most.
I agree with ianflo. Nook seems to be (one of) the best for sideloaded epub viewing.
Personally I have been using Aldiko for my book reading needs. Works quite well if I do say so myself.

Been using Mantano reader myself, page turning, while not as good as google books, as pretty close to it. Side loading is easy, just browse to whereever you stored the epubs on your device and import.
Its an almost perfect reader, just needs a TOC button.
Two things. First, I need to make sure my favorite epub reader is mentioned, fbreader.
Second, does google books support side-loading any format? If so, calibre may be able to transform epubs to that format. It's a Windows tool for managing ebook libraries.
Calibre is a multiplatform program, runs quite well on Linux btw. http://calibre-ebook.com/download
As for sideloading on google books, nope, the files are stored somewhere, where haven't a clue, in what format, ditto.
So I tried nook' its OK its not all that great. I downloaded one of their free books how do you side load epub files for the nook?
Mantanos free version does not include the page turn effect and the pay is like 6 bucks. A bit pricey if you ask me. I currently use aldiko and fbreader. They are both great but the page turn animation is lacking big time.
There has to be a way to side load these files through Google books no? Even if you convert the file using caliber?
Edit: figured out how to sideload to the nook app.

I just recently switched from aldiko to moon+ reader. I don't use the page turn animation so I'm not sure how smooth it is, but the app as a whole is just fantastic. So much control over every part of the app it's just great.
It also has a nice sync feature using dropbox. I can put my N7 down and when I go out and open the same book on my phone it syncs the page to where I last left off.
I bought the pro version after about 10 minutes of use on the free one.
I have been preaching for a way to load epubs into google books for a long time now. All the other book reader apps have some kind of compromise or niggle that annoys me. I don't understand why google doesn't just open it up to sideloading.

Got my Nexus7 last week and while researching Kindle and Nook book rental options...I found out Google / Google Books is making an effort... See below
“In 2004, The New York Public Library was one of several libraries taking part in this ground-breaking digital venture with Google; others included the libraries at Michigan, Stanford, Harvard, and Oxford Universities. Since 2004, other libraries and institutions have signed partnership agreements including Princeton University, Cornell University, the University of California system, and the Committee for Institutional Cooperation (CIC). They even have a nice list of Google's Library Partners, from around the world too.
Been using Moon+ Reader for a couple months now, tons of features, page turn is like pulling the corner of a page and flipping it as opposed to Googles dragging the middle of the page, page turn works nice, though not quite as pretty as googles, although it is more dynamic in that it is not the same every time you turn a page. If you hold as you slide finger and move finger down as pulling you will see page react accordingly, or just tap side and flip animation. You can import and sort books according to directories which is awesome, I have a different directory for every author and sort works very well. Like the above reader said I used it for a few minutes and purchased the Pro immediately, it just works well.
Also like the person above mentioned the cloud sync is amazing. I have an S3, Galaxy Nexus, and N7, use each of them at different times, and whatever I'm reading is left off in the same spot on the next device I use.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.flyersoft.moonreader&feature=related_apps
Another app worth mentioning for ePub & PDF books is the Kobo app: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.kobobooks.android&hl=en
I have tried nearly every reader out there and the best by far for me was cool reader. The front end is not as nice as some others but the ability to configure is great.

Gotta mention Mantano Premium reader here. The Page turn animation is pretty much the same as the iOS animation, and just as smooth. Feels as smooth as it can possibly be. I've tried dozens of book reader apps and all have been disappointing except for Mantano. It's a little pricey but I consider it a core must have for a tablet so it's definitely worth it. Packed full of other features too.
