Hasn't worked in days. Refuses to update any feeds. Won't load any new articles. When it does work, it's very hit or miss, especially in regards to marking articles as read/unread. If you use the button to mark all articles in a feed as read, even new articles that haven't been loaded will be marked as read, which means you'll totally miss any articles published after the last time the app successfully updated the feed... which could be hours or even days ago.

Log in doesn't work on my phone anymore. Only on my laptop. I've deleted and reinstalled. So depressing not a single rss app out there works nicely. /// Old edit: I'm trying to like this app but when it keeps telling me there's no stories and I have at minimum, 20 news feeds loaded, it's hard. It's an inconsistent reading experience. It either works or doesn't. I don't understand the story loading glitches. Would also like to pay month to month as an option instead of three months or 12.

I've been a user of NewsBlur ever since Google killed Google Reader, and have been mostly happy...until now. Several weeks ago, rendering in the app was broken, and now it's only usable in dark mode. The developer does not seem to have a fix in sight, so for now I cannot recommend it to new users. As a paid subscriber, I expect more, and am extremely disappointed. Am actively seeking alternatives at this point.

This was my go-to RSS reader for years; loved cloud sync, and the interface was intuitive and functional. However, recently every feed I subscribe to stopped rendering correctly; black-on-black text, or paragraphs layered on top of each other, forced me to use the "View Original" button to do anything. Some of my other feeds just showed the headline and nothing else. I can't recommend this until this issue is fixed; for now I've switched to PodcastRepublic to consume RSS blog feeds.

Usually my go-to reader. Now all the feeds, both the full and shortened versions, are gone. Completely useless. And, the email feedback is broken. I can't email support about my issue. No option to select gmail. Can copy text but don't know what email to send to. And, I can't log in to the forum (even though I'm logged into the reader). Password reset emails never show up. Tried 2x, not in the spam folder or anywhere.
