iPhone Apps I Love: Newsie

Posted by: Lorraine Barte Nepomuceno on Mar 13, 2010

What are the first pages you load when you fire up your browser in the morning? For me, it’s Gmail and Google Reader (yes, I am quite dependent on the almighty G). Of course, that’s for mornings when I actually have time to enjoy a cup of coffee in front of my desktop, that is. On mornings that I have to be somewhere, I am extremely grateful for Newsie.

Newsie is a Google Reader client app that:

  • Downloads my Google Reader subscriptions at lightning speed. I’m not kidding, this thing’s fast, because it doesn’t take forever to sync all your feeds (I have over 200!)
  • Supports starred items, and automatically saves the item’s original web page with a virtual “paperclip” so I’ll remember to get back to it later.
  • Works well with Tweetie & Twitterific, letting me tweet interesting posts. Not something I really do, but I like knowing that I can.
  • Is beautifully designed, with a simple user interface and support for full-screen.

If you’re an RSS feed junkie like me, check Newsie out. It’s currently $3.99 at the App Store.
