Feedly has been the go to RSS reader for many of our readers (especially those of you with Google Reader accounts). A few days ago Feedly updated their Android app and brought in a ton of great new features and a cleaner, faster, more fluid experience. The first thing you'll notice when you open the app is that the word “beta” has now been dropped from the splash screen (the background of the splash screen has also been changed to black). Instead of swiping from left to right to browse through your available articles, you swipe from top to bottom. When you get to the bottom of a page of articles, the page you're on swipes away from the top, and the next page appears from underneath it (like a deck of cards). It's a pretty smooth experience. While within an article, swipe left or right to read the next article, or swipe up from the bottom to close the article. If you're wanting to find new content, swipe from the right bezel of the screen to pull up the “store” where you can find new content (all free of charge). Swipe from the left bezel to pull out your “subscribed feeds” list. Feedly has also added a new widget and layouts for the Nexus 7 and Nexus 10. In all, it's a really fluid and high quality experience with some nice eye candy. Best of all it's absolutely free! Download Feedly by using the QR code or download link below.
