Just got updated in the App Store with iPhone X compatibility. For those hoping for an update, or those searching for an RSS reader that’s not Newsify or Unread, it’s worth trying out!

I had idea this app was still updated.
Same here. I was looking for replacement apps like Newsify and Unread, but saw a Twitter conversation a few days back that confirmed the dev was working on an update.
Good to see that it hasn’t been abandoned.
I might go back to it. I’m not nuts about Newsify, but I do like thumbnails…
What’s the difference between this and Flipboard?
Reeder is a more "classic" style of news feed, where you subscribe to individual feeds using a service like Feedly. Whatever you're subscribed to, that's what you get. Articles are listed for your viewing in list form. Simple and straightforward.
Flipboard presents more of a magazine-type of news feed, with curated content based around topics you like. You can add specific websites' content to your Flipboard feed, but you'll also find other articles that you might enjoy from other sources.
Both are great; I use Reeder for my traditional feed of daily news and Flipboard when I just want something to read and swipe through, based on my topics of interest.
I just checked the sub to see if someone posted this already and sure enough!
The pure black theme looks incredible on iPhone X.
Yes, looks great! Happy to see the dev is actually still working on Reeder. I was skeptical that all development had stopped since he's infamously known for not responding to emails or tweets, but looks like he pulled through here.
Yeah he’s definitely in the running for being one of the most reclusive developers out there. But as long as the app is updated, whatever.
Yep, totally agree. Honestly, the app works as intended; there's not a lot of things that needed to be fixed or added outside of iPhone X support. It just works.
I did have that Feedly issue mentioned in the changelog previously, but just linked my Google account to Feedly and that took care of that.
New theme? I can’t seem to find that option anywhere.
It’s the ellipsis in the right-hand corner in feed view. https://i.imgur.com/TqoLJ82.jpg
