Reeder 4 for macOS Gets a Public Beta
Reeder 4 for macOS Gets a Public Beta
Reeder is one of the most synonymous RSS apps on iOS. It has been around for a long time and is very likely in the first set of apps that most people install on their devices alongside the likes of 1Password and Twitterrific or Tweetbot. Reeder 3, the current stable version of the app, went Free on iOS and Mac last year. Today, Silvio has announced and released a public beta of Reeder 4 — the major rewrite of the app. Some of the new features introduced in the app are:
- Read Later service with iCloud syncing.
- Article list with preview images.
- More layout options.
- Improved article viewer.
- Pull-to-Refresh
According to the developer, the iOS version of Reeder 4 is almost ready, so I’m hoping Reeder 4 will be out later this year. I can’t wait to see how it evolves during the beta.
