New filter menu


Got some feedback over the years that indicated that people were having a hard time understanding what the eye-icon in the toolbar was for (toggling between showing read articles or not). Combined with a need to let people view their saved articles in specific feeds/tags I decided to address both with a new button and menu. The menu uses the fairly standard filter icon (it also has a tooltip on long-press) and shows options in plain language.…

Giving OPML import/export some attention


A user emailed me and asked if I could fix the filename of the OPML export from .xml to .opml. This was a quick fix but it lead me down a rabbit hole. See screenshots. OPML import is something many users never do (I think) and the ones that do typically only do it once or twice. Still the app should support opening the files directly in my opinion. Currently you must select “Import from OPML” in the main menu.…

New notification settings coming


Lately I’ve gotten more than one email about notifications not working which turned out to be people not understanding how to enable them. So to reduce confusion I am adding a global notification setting where you can toggle all feeds in one place - and it’s also a logical place to ask for the notification permission. In hindsight it should have been added years ago but you can’t think of everything at all times.…
