Excellent Full RSS Reader
By far the best RSS reader Ive used. It can however use just a few minor adjustments.
After getting fed up with just partial articles showing up in my feeds, I went on the search to find a full RSS converter that didnt take long to convert my feeds. In my search I found lire and it is infinitely better than any RSS converter can be. Syncs with my Feedly account and instantly converts partial feeds to full feeds. Admittedly this doesnt work on every site, but thats due to how some sites format their articles making it difficult for the feed to be properly converted. This issue happens with many converters, so I do not count that as a fault against lire. Regardless, because of this feature I have found myself reading more articles than I had previously and subscribing to more feeds knowing that I can read them how *I* want to read them.
I would like to see just a few things added to the app to make it even better.
01. A confirmation pop up before "Delete all articles" Due to a slip of my thumb, I accidentally ended up deleting a few articles from the app when I intended to just mark them as read. A "Are you sure you want to delete? Yes. No." pop up couldve prevented this.
02. A way to mark articles unread when already reading them. Sometimes I start to read an article only to see that its much longer than I have time to give it attention. It would be much quicker and much more convenient and intuitive to mark it unread from within the article rather than backing out, going to the "Read" section of the feed, finding the article if its deep down the list, and then long pressing on it to mark it unread.
03. The ability to long press on links or linked images within the article and be able to copy the URL instead of having to go through the in app browser to do it.
These are the only things so far I wish would be included to make lire even better than it is now. Other than that, Im really glad I found this little app and hope for its continued improvement and development.
