For WP we have Metroblur (Free, only WP8), Swift Reader (Paid with free trial), feed me (Paid with free trial), NewsSpot (Paid with free trial) and BlurryNews (Free, only WP8). It also has a great web version at It's more apps available that uses Newsblur than it is using Feedly.

That's enough for most people, including me, but if you want the full version its just $2 per month, so its not so much. You can only have 64 feeds in the free version. Newsblur is also a good service, but it's not completely free. I think you should try them both and see witch one you like best. It has almost everything that Nextgen has, but a little bit different UI.

It is free right now, but I think it will get a price with a free trial soon, so grab it right now if you want it. The only downside that I can see with Feedly is that you need a Google account to sign in.ĮDIT: Flux is now updated with Feedly support. It is a really good app with very many settings, Live Tile and Lock screen support (Not WP7 version). I have tried the free version of the app for WP7 and Win8. There are both a free version and a paid version for all platforms. It is available for both WP8, WP7 and Win8. Right now I think that it one app that syncs with Feedly, and that's Nextgen. They have a great web version at They are also working on a official app for both WP8 and Win8:smile: They also have the ability to import your feeds from GR if you sign up before GR close.įeedly is a great free service for syncing your feeds. Unfortunately none of them have official apps for WP or Win8, but fortunately there are unofficial apps for both. There are two big services that syncs your feeds with a server: Feedly and Newsblur.
That's why I will focus most on these readers in this post, and not as much on the stand-alone clients. That is good because if I add a new feed it will add that feed to all of my devices, and when I read a article it will be marked as read on all of my devices. I (and probably most of you too) prefer the once that sync with a server because I get the same feeds on all devices. There are two main categories of RSS readers available, once that sync with a server, and stand-alone clients. Fortunately there are some good options now. You may wonder what this has to do with WP, since it is a Google product? Well, many RSS readers on Windows Phone rely on that service to provide the RSS feeds, and they will stop to work. As you probably know Google reader will shut down on July 1.
