Good idea. Thanks.

I just went to Google Reader online. It has an "Mark all as read -- items older than two weeks". I'll see if that helps as well. (The thing is I haven't used feeds for a while, so I was backed up with thousands of posts...)

Thanks again.

Any chance of custom fonts? Prefer serif fonts over sans serif ones :)

Really like Droid Reader's article view.

New theme looks great btw ;)
[Android Apps and Games] jman2020:
Agreed!!!!
[Android Apps and Games] enacu:
ock, I'll have a look at Droid Reader.

And yes, custom fonts (included in Android) will be added soon. (Thanks for the suggestion!)

jman2020, finally decided to implement widget. But I'm going to vacation. Will try to implement beta till 22nd, but not sure

Thanks for suggestions anyway!
[Android Apps and Games] E_man5112:
New release looks great. The new theme was excellent, and the new icon set is great as well.

Also, have you managed to figure out why it won't preload all my pictures?
[Android Apps and Games] enacu:
E_man5112, thanks!

not yet :( Right now working on issues.

As something arises - I'll upload it
[Android Apps and Games] enacu:
E_man5112, hey!

Probably, I found a problem with my images loading feature.

Did you set to download images in Feed custom settings? Or for the whole account/system?

Found that Feed settings don't work for Images downloading.

Will be fixed soon

new beta: optimizations and fixes

Hi!

Here is new beta version:

what's new:

- added some more information using icons:

blue icon means downloaded to device

red icon means error occured while loading data

also, new menu item "Retry load" to clear all downloading statuses (to retry load all resources)

- fixed some bugs

- optimized new posts loading while sync

results for this are rather impressive: 2000 posts loaded 80 sec before. After optimization: 40sec

- optimized UI a little bit
[Android Apps and Games] dan13l:
Beta definitely seems to update faster. Nice work. Loving this app. Best reader app I've used.
[Android Apps and Games] enacu:
Thanks :)

If you find any bugs or any suggestions feel free to write here
[Android Apps and Games] enacu:
1.2.1 version is in Android Market

Hi!

today I uploaded new 1.2.1 version to the Android Market

- added some more information using icons:

blue icon means “downloaded to device”

red icon means “error occured while loading data”

also, new menu item “Retry load” to clear all downloading statuses (to retry load all resources)

-fixed some bugs

-optimized new posts loading while sync

results for this are rather impressive: 2000 posts loaded 80 sec before. After optimization: 40sec

-optimized UI a little bit

-optimized services usage (no more services running after sync completes)

Please, if you like JustReader rate it in the Android Market.

This can really help us!
[Android Apps and Games] ock:
Downloaded it last night, it's the fastest

in syncing among the few readers I had installed. The notification icon looks a bit too large on Gingerbread but that's a minor complaint.

Any chance of Tasker support? :)

Thanks for the frequent updates.

[Android Apps and Games] enacu:
Hi!

Thanks for using JustReader!

Yes, sync time is optimized much in last versions. But I really don't think is much better than other readers. I think it's almost the same for one very popular reader :) But I think mine reader has greater UI and some unique UI features. I hope so :) And I hope users like it

Integration with tasker is a good thing, but currently have much work to do.

I think I can implement it only in some months.

Also widget is not ready now ( , but I'll release new fix version with a small present in some days.

Today did a small video review. Here it is:

[YOUTUBE]8ebRw_SnuOs[/YOUTUBE]
[Android Apps and Games] E_man5112:
Well, I just got back from a out of town trip. I spent most of it back at newsrob since it could for sure download files for later. However, the new update of Just Reader now works great, I can download in the background no problem. I wasn't using any "per feed" subscriptions before to download pictures before, so whatever other thing you fixed works great.

1 bug. There are times I get a red icon for error loading data, but the data loaded great. In fact, most of the red icons have the data downloaded fine. Hardly a big issue, but just in case.
[Android Apps and Games] enacu:
I hope you can now use JustReader )

Also, regarding a bug.

This is not a bug, I think. Red icon means JustReader couldn't download all images.

So, It was able to download almost everything and shows the page correctly.

But, for example, it couldn't download one image (probably, there is a broken link on pages of specific site)
[Android Apps and Games] enacu:
Hi everybody!

Here is new updated version

Fixes some bugs

+ now you get full offline support even in free version

Here is an apk
[Android Apps and Games] ock:
Thanks, using it now, no problems as always. :)
[Android Apps and Games] tczhang:
Hi, this is by far the best Google Reader app I ever used. After several days trial, I have removed all other Google Reader apps.

However, today I met a strange issue. When I sync, it always reminds me of "Network error" and can't fetch anything.

Could you please check what is wrong with the app? I tried again by gReader and it worked well...

Thanks.
[Android Apps and Games] enacu:
Hi everybody!

Thanks for using JustReader

Currently I am on holidays. I'll be back on may 10h. Then I'll check all your issues.

Now you can try just to delete and install app again.
[Android Apps and Games] ock:
Enjoy your holiday! No serious bugs for me so far. :)

Just bought this for the individual feed preferences and ad-free reading. Great work so far!

Sent from my GT-I9000
[Android Apps and Games] enacu:
So, I'm back home.

Ready to fix issues. Does JustReader still show the same error for you?
[Android Apps and Games] tczhang:
Hope you enjoyed your holidays.

Actually it gets even worse... Whenever I sync feeds now, it just stopped at "loading articles..." and shows "Network error". In fact, my network connection is okay and gReader (I have to re-install it due to JustReader's issue...) works at same time. In some occasions, it syncs feeds but still shows "Network error" and the unread counts displays zero.

I have tried uninstall and re-install but it doesn't help.

To be honest, from my experience of all Google reader apps, your app is really great although there are bugs. I love the display style, ability to change article fonts and podcast download...

I realize the way you manage downloaded podcast is to put them to different folders named by numbers. It is hard to handle when I want to download and listen. Is it possible to put them into one folder defined by user? That would be great for some users I believe.

Again, thanks for your great work on this app. I hope it will get better and better.
[Android Apps and Games] enacu:
tczhang, thanks for the answer and for using JustReader

Your suggestion about downloading podcasts is not unique, so I already have it in my ToDo list, but currently have much work to do and will be implementing it after some time

And yes, I enjoyed my holidays very much :)

Sent a PM to you to sort out the problem
[Android Apps and Games] enacu:
Here is new version of JustReader.

This time with scrollable widget (works only in some launchers e.g. LauncherPro, ADW Launcher)

Unfortunately, didn't fix all bugs received while I was on holidays, but fixed many bugs, so this version should be much more stable.

So, check out new 1.2.3-beta3 with scrollable widget

BUG report

hi,

the BEST RSS reader, I switched to this for good.

When in an article, in portrait mode, the thumbnail of any video is perfectly there, plays well. BUT when I decide to rotate my screen, to landscape, it goes full screen that's ok, but the video stops. And I cannot start it either.

IF I have the article already in landscape and start the video like that, it is fine. (I have some pause/continue problems though)

I have a Desire Z, unrooted, official HTC firmware, 2.2.1
[Android Apps and Games] K900:
Tried all the other aps out there. Nothing can beat this one.
[Android Apps and Games] enacu:
moolash, K900, thanks for the support! :)

And about video and screen rotation: yes, currently rotation works not as good as I want. Also, it resets reading position to the start. I'll be implementing this in the newer versions.

Also, did you try widget? How does it works?
[Android Apps and Games] ock:
Widget working fine here, shall let you know if I find any bugs :)

I will check but I don't use widgets so much.
[Android Apps and Games] sunwee:
Just found Justreader after using others for a while.

so far quite like it, theme X is nice, but is it possible to have a dark version of theme X? the current theme X is kind of bright and makes reading in bed a bit too uncomfortable. thanks.
[Android Apps and Games] ock:
I would love to see this too :)

Another minor request: is it possible to use a smaller, grey notification icon on gingerbread? Thanks!

Sent from my GT-I9000
[Android Apps and Games] enacu:
Yeah, I would like to get dark theme too )

My friend (designer) got much work to do, so we'll implement this when he has some break on his job

And, the same thing with notification icon
[Android Apps and Games] devalian:
make sure to go into market and i would like to use it for sure.. :)
[Android Apps and Games] sunwee:
another feedback is that the swiping to the left and right seems a bit too senstive on my SGS1. sometimes i just want to swipe down to scroll the article, but the app registers it as side swiping and loads the next article.
[Android Apps and Games] enacu:
Hi everybody!

New version is in the Android Market now.

Also, post here!

Included:

- scrollable widget

- bugfixes

Right now working on first version with Honeycomb support!

sunwee, there is an option to change swipe sensitivity.

Check out Behaviour settings!
[Android Apps and Games] ock:
Thanks, looking forward to a honeycomb version.

Sent from my GT-I9000
[Android Apps and Games] enacu:
So, here we go

Here is new JustReader. There are many changes, but they are not visible

- optimized db. it must be faster and should be smaller. (better for many items)

- divided all the functionality into fragments (preparing for Honeycomb version)

- improved screen orientation change on post activity: scroll position is saved now

So, pls, check out the new version and tell me if something goes wrong.

Feedback and bug reports are welcome!
[Android Apps and Games] doug0365:
Wow have to say this rss reader reminds me a bit of Reeder from the Iphone which to me is the best rss reader for IOS. I do have a question though in regards to copying text how does that work? I hit the button but when I go to select text nothings happens or am I not using it right?

Keep up the great work!
[Android Apps and Games] sunwee:
thank you! it's good now. 5 star rating.

just waiting for darker X theme. :)
[Android Apps and Games] enacu:
sunwee, thanks!

doug0365, "copy text" just copies all the text to Clipboard for now

Thanks everybody for support!

Also, here is new beta.

- fixes some db update stuff (now it's ok to upgrade existing JustReader installation)

- fixes widget

Now starting honeycomb version!
[Android Apps and Games] ock:
Thanks for the updates.

Just a report: mark read until this seems to mark more items as read (newer articles as well). No other issues so far. ;)

Clear data, that should fix
[Android Apps and Games] h46it:
I did...I had to go back to 1.2.3 to images to load again. :(
[Android Apps and Games] enacu:

Will fix

ock, will fix it too
[Android Apps and Games] h46it:

[Android Apps and Games] daleski75:
Just brought this superb app and would like to ask if there is any option for adding gzip compression for downloading feeds like feedr etc?
[Android Apps and Games] daleski75:
A darker X theme would be superb
[Android Apps and Games] enacu:
Hey everybody!

Here is 1.3.0-beta1.

There are some honeycomb related changes, but honeycomb version not yet finished.

It works, shows fragments, but you can't even sync items (only through widget)

But, I added dark theme too. Nothing very special, but replaced light background with dark one. I think, it looks nice this way.

Also, there are some other changes:

- changed ui a little bit for better user experience (check out main activity)

- added possibility to share link via long-tap

So, here is new screenshot + apk

Also, bugs related to db conversion should be fixed in this version.

daleski75 I'll try to find out about gzip. I think it should be enabled by default in JustReader.
[Android Apps and Games] daleski75:
Another little feature request from me :)

Can you add the ability to disable the confirmation for "Mark as Read"?
[Android Apps and Games] enacu:
Sure, but not right now. I'll add this feature request to my todo list

Thanks

New dark skin is superb, just what I wished for. :)

Hi everybody, thans for the support!

Here is small preview: http://lockerz.com/s/107244805

[Android Apps and Games] ock:
I've a Asus Transformer, running 3.1. I can do some tests :)

Sent from my GT-I9000
[Android Apps and Games] enacu:
ock, sure. Just have to play a little bit with this version

May be tomorrow
[Android Apps and Games] dan13l:
Well there I was, heading for the forum to ask for bigger touch points for the article count "buttons" (the ones that take you into all articles for a particular folder) and lo and behold, a new beta that does just that! Love the boxed off approach now.

Also love that there are now basically just the two inverted themes, might as well remove the "theme" title completely and just have a day/night toggle. It's a beautifully simplistic design anyway, and if someone wants something fugly they can always go use another reader!

Scrolling seems smoother in this version too - another tweak?

Running on a Galaxy Tab and on an SGS2 and it's awesome.

Great update! Almost tempted to get a Honeycomb tab so I can play with that version too!
[Android Apps and Games] dan13l:
After a day's use, I've only had one crash with the beta. I hit the send feedback button, so hopefully that got to you.

One feature request I'd love to see: let me override the mark all as read confirmation? It'd be great to be able to do that with one tap.
[Android Apps and Games] enacu:
dan13l, yes, change UI a little bit. I hope it's more user friendly now

Also, I think, I'll add old themes. I got some messages from other people saying they want them back.

Tweaked sql queries one more time, so UI should be a little bit faster (you may not even notice it this time)

dan13l, ok! I'll add this as option

Here is one more beta. Now, this beta is with honeycomb support

It's not yet full, but some basic features work.

Give me your suggestions about honeycomb version!

Also, I'll definetely add preview images and text preview. This will surely be nice on Honeycomb. (Also, will be included in regular version)

Here is a list of changes in this version:

- first Honeycomb BETA version

- Chinese translation

- check behaviour settings. there are some new options:

a) what to after checking an item unread

b) option to go back to article list if you reached the end
[Android Apps and Games] daleski75:

[Android Apps and Games] sunwee:
i have a feed that is not updating, but the blog is active. how can i determine if this is JustReader problem or google's problem?

btw, just bought the pro key. really deserve support.

i have a feature request - is it possible to keep articles on a per feed basis rather than have an overall number? the reason is because some feeds are very prolific and dominates the cache. there are certain feeds which are very much less active (eg maybe 1 article per week), but which i would like to keep the articles around for much longer.

edit: yes i know i can keep those articles starred, but rather that individually starring them, i rather have a setting that says "keep the last 30 articles for feed A"
[Android Apps and Games] enacu:
daleski75, thanks )

ock, just uploaded new beta, didn't check start without any data. this version should fix this. Although, there are many unfinished elements, but it at least works )

you can find new beta in the same post as before

sunwee are there any unread articles in Google Reader web interface?

Also, there is one old JustReader bug: if you add subscription to the Google Reader, you'll get only new articles (in JustReader).

I'll be fixing this when finish some other jobs
[Android Apps and Games] sunwee:
IIRC correctly they were marked read in Google reader. Anyway, I unsub and resub it again and it seems to be updating for now. I'll continue to monitor to see if it happens again.

Btw, if i install the betas here, when the official version gets released, will i be notified thru market?
[Android Apps and Games] enacu:
sunwee, ok. contact me if something is wrong

if you install beta, market won't tell you to update.

So, here is much more polished Honeycomb version:

But, there are also some bugfixes related to phone version

Did anyone try Honeycomb version here? what to you think?
[Android Apps and Games] ock:
Nice rc1, was able to login. UI is sleek, would love to see a button for sharing the article via other means. Also perhaps the previous/next buttons can be placed together near the middle of the edge? Sync is fast, shall let u know of any issues, if any :)
[Android Apps and Games] jjsoviet:
I love this reader. Very nice interface, excellent layout in the tablet version. I like how you implemented the swipe gestures for switching through feeds and marking them as favorites.

Pics!

There's a problem though with the widget. It says that scrollable widgets are not supported, and that I should use another launcher. Honeycomb does support scrollable widgets and even app stacks, so I guess this is a bug or a feature not yet fully developed on Honeycomb. That, or I need the Pro version. :)
[Android Apps and Games] enacu:
jjsoviet, thanks for your support )

I'll implement widget in the next version. Today will upload 1.3.0 to Android Market. Seems rather stable.
[Android Apps and Games] enacu:
I've just uploaded new JustReader version to the Android Market

Here it is.

So, here is a change list:

- Honeycomb support!

- new dark theme added

- app directly goes to the article if there is only one article in the list

- added some options to make different actions when article is mark as unread

- “go back to list” option when the end of articles is reached

- saving reading position when screen rotates

- added new swipe sensitivity level: very sensitive

- improved overall performance for people with many articles

- fixed YouTube video size in articles

- fixed other bugs

- added Chinese translation! Thanks to Sheng Mao!
[Android Apps and Games] daleski75:
Superb just downloaded it now and forgot to say I am also a paid up member for this app ;)

The syncing seems faster now with this release so does it now use gzip compression behind the scenes?

Also great to see now we can turn off the mark as read confirmation :D
[Android Apps and Games] enacu:
Thanks for buying )

No, sorry. Forgot about gzipping. Just put in my ToDo list, so will upload the beta version here when is ready
[Android Apps and Games] scottjb:
This is a very nice reader, thanks. It seems to not sync back from my handset to Google at times. Sorry if that was mentioned, I did a quick search and didn't see it. Droid Incredible, CM7, Nightly #98. Keep up the nice work. :-)
[Android Apps and Games] daleski75:
Looking forward to seeing gzip being implemented.
[Android Apps and Games] Loftus:
Really enjoying the 1.3 release, especially the widget. Very happy with the new dark theme and snappy performance. Only thing that is missing now is a search function.
[Android Apps and Games] enacu:
Hi everybody

Thanks for nice comments! Hope you enjoy JustReader!

Today uploaded new release to market. Sorry, can't upload it here right now

GZip implemented and fixed the most common fcs

I also experience some troubles with saving statuses, need some time to find why this happens
[Android Apps and Games] jjsoviet:
Thanks for the update. By the way, is it okay to ask if the Honeycomb version would have its widget as an App Stack in addition to being a standard scrollable widget? That would be cool because it will really make the app differentiate between the phone and tablet versions. That, and it looks freaking sweet. Can't wait for a major update!
[Android Apps and Games] enacu:
jjsoviet, I'll think about this. May be I'll implement this a little bit later.

So, here is one more update:

- old themes are back (2 old dark themes)

- many memory usage optimizations

- posssibility to send memory dump when there is OutOfMemoryError

- added "Reload item" to reading screen menu

- fixed some bugs
[Android Apps and Games] sammyg122:
Hey, love the app, thanks for the work!

Quick question, is there a reason why just reader runs constantly? I don't have auto sync on, but the app keeps opening in the background. thanks.

Edit: running version 1.3 from the market
[Android Apps and Games] Funnnny:
Don't know why but some feed are showing 404 not found error in Mobilized Version, the RSS version works fine

For example arstechnica
[Android Apps and Games] enacu:
sammyg122, I think, it's because of some timers and connection change listeners.

Actually it doesn't do anything even if it shows. I think, this can be seen by battery consumption.

Also, I understand that you may want not to see the app in the list.

Funnnny. Did you try beta? It should be fixed there.

If not, then here is the new beta. (if it's not working for you, write here pls)

I've just checked. it's working for me on the new beta

changes:

- Honeycomb widget

- some small bugfixes
[Android Apps and Games] jjsoviet:
Finally, the default widget now runs on Honeycomb! Thanks sir. :D
[Android Apps and Games] enacu:
jjsoviet, you are welcome

I've just finished it, so didn't have much time to test :)

So, say if you find an error

Thanks!
[Android Apps and Games] jjsoviet:
^ So far, no issues in scrolling or accessing feeds. Looks stable to me. I'll report if there's a snag. :)
[Android Apps and Games] jjsoviet:
Tested the widget thoroughly, here are my results:

- Sometimes when clicking on a news feed, it just launches the app to its most recent state - not straight to the feed itself.

- Above issue can be fixed by manually refreshing the feeds, but this doesn't always work.

- Even at times, the widget does not take me to the JustReader app at all when pressing on a news article.

Everything else though is good. I hope this helps. :)
[Android Apps and Games] enacu:
jjsoviet, thanks! Need to use it by myself, I think )

So, here is new version, yesterday uploaded it to the market

Fixed bugs which found in 1.3.1. Also, optimized memory usage a little bit more.
