Web Feeds HD now available for your iPad

Yay! Weeb Feeds HD has just made it’s way to the App Store. Essentially it’s a port of my Web Feeds iPhone app with some additional cool features such as sharing feed posts to all important social media services. The interface is once again modeled as closely to the iPad-native Mail-app, as I found that this approach works extremely well for consuming RSS feeds and doesn’t require the user to learn anything new. You also have to option to browse through all of your feeds in full Web-mode, where you skip the RSS summary and are taken straight to source of the post. This works fantastic with the Google News feeds, as they are linking directly to the original source. Essentially have a quick way to read through the most important news of the day.

Check it out on the Store, and give it try. It’s only $1.99, way less than the competition.

  • Thank you for the Weeb Feeds HD, it’s great! But I have noticed some problems:
    1. FaceBook sharing is not working. I cannot type in my FB info. The username/ID section doesnot show the letters I typed;
    2. After I read some feeds in Weeb Feeds HD, the feeds I had read were not marked as read in NetNewsWire on Mac or in Reeder on iPad. If I read the feeds in Reeder on iPad, it showed as read in NetNewsWire on Mac (or if I read the feeds in NetNewsWire on Mac, it showed as read in Reeder on iPad), but did NOT show as read in Weeb Feeds HD either way. So, I have go to through and figure out what I had read and mark it as read again.

  • I forgot to mention: Weeb Feeds HD, Reeder and NetNewsWire are all synched with my Google Reader account.

  • Weeb Feeds HD is slower than Reeder when it comes to the speed of downloading feeds. Again, it’s all synched with my Google Reader account.

  • Really great little app. Thank you!

    One further addition would be welcome: filtering the posts by inputting key words or phrases.
