power toggles isn't needed, dropbar toggles are highly customizable.
picsay pro is awesome, might also want to consider this new kickstartr called Photoshop, its made by Adobe and is in the market for about the same price.
Desktop Visualizer is built into NOVA
really don't know what's special about MX video player, its less featured than stock, doesn't support. MKV files, and takes sooo much more out of the battery, not to mention uglier interface, no features, and loads super slow. if you want a dinosaur 3rd party video player use QQ, its chinese made so doesn't bother with things like licensing, and it'll play everything, even proprietary formats cause.. china ftw
home switcher is used so rarely, you might as well use the built in home switcher, under settings>apps
dropbox only if you already have it, otherwise use the 1tb dropbox destroyer Samsung included with the s4.
ES File manager .... let me share with you a proper file manager, Solid Explorer. every other file manager is the same except this one, multi pannels, drag and dropping, whole system indexing for instant search results, even includes your cloud drives (dropbox, gdrive, etc) and can drag and drop between them too.. most sophisticated file manager, competes even with windows desktop file manager.
too add to this list let me suggest a great pair;
BetterBatteryStats paired with AutoStart Manager. these two together can customly remove ads, remove battery drainers, mod features, remove trial limitations in apps, stop apps from starting up whenever tthey feel like it which is the reason you're losing 40% instead of 3% to standby throughout the day.
SMS Popup - if samsung doesn't offer option to keep screen off while getting notification, i suggest this. turn off notifications in messenger, and enable SMS Popup, i don't use the popup feature, but rather use it identically as stock, it brings up stock messenger, it only uses SMS Popup to notify (just without waking screen).
Titanium Backup, swiss army knife of android apps.
Thumb Keyboard. if you're not using Swiftkey to text like a maniac without needing to even look at your keyboard, then i suggest Thumb Keyboard. its an extremely comfortable hiiigghhlllly customizable keyboard, with a large split layout, or 13 other custom layouts, that you can tweak, has oh so necessary arrow keys, and test subsidies. to name a few of mine, i subsidize 'tue' for 'the' as built in dictionary will autocorrect it to Tue (short for Tuesday). i also changed 'khz' to '㎑' 'ghz' to '㎓', 'ducking' to '****ing' (lol..), as well as 'f3, f4, f5, and f6 to ( ￣ з￣), ( ´ ⌒`) (༯ ͡ ヮ ͡ ) (╥__ ╥╬)..
..anyways you get the idea.. you can replace any letter or longpress letters, and a zillion other features. just check it out.
QuickPic offers more photoviewing features, but ill admit integration with stock, and it's pretty ui are pretty awesome, so its your call.
same as above goes for poweramp, offers some better features, but ui is hideous compared to stock.
lastly i suggest you actually give the stock apps a chance before tossing them aside for 3rd party.. galaxy has come a long way since s1, at least give it a chance.

Desktop Visualizer , AirDroid and powertoggles are not needed i Think...I think there would be a yet another easy way to transfer files via wifi..Who knows the default filemanager of s4 may support wifi file transfer to devices and pc....As of power toggles they are not really needed the same in the case of desktop visualizer too...

Well, it looks very nice, will try
Thank you very much
Wish it looked like the icon though. Maybe even just the option for white?
Does the widget include settings for transparency?
I just downloaded but when creating the widget, my agenda won't load; stays in "loading" loop. Anyone know why? I'm using Nova launcher.
Looks good, but quite a lot to pay to get all the features, especially when compared to other widgets that offer the same thing. Needs transparency too. Just my 2c...
I have a htc one running 4.2.2 sense 5 (insert coin rom) and Im using Apex launcher.
It looks good but it wont let me scroll the widget up and down with a swipe, it has actually added up and down arrows
how do I get it to work as in the video, swipe up and down?
Thanks
Looks like a paid application

Same on my TF300 CM10.1, data protection disabled at application preference, but nothing displayed.
Unable to suppress that damn FaceBook tab (Am I the only one who's not using FaceBook ?)
Anyway, too much paying options (quite all), IMHO the thread should be moved to "General discussion > Paid Software Announcement and Discussion"

We are going to support skins in future - it is on our road-map - but for now it is semi-transparent grey, which should suit most designs.

That's strange, 'cause our up/down paging buttons are in custom version build for pre 4 Android, which is not you case as I understood. Did you install from Google Play?

Quite a pity that you didn't not find use for the core features that are free. Core idea to gather and show events in place that is visible to the user in a well-designed, space-thifty almost all the times - his desktop - is the primary idea. On the other hand, it is almost pleasant that we could think of features that are supplementary but appear to be so much needed by our users.
What can we say... we had an idea of something that is needed... and give it for free, and then thought once again, what can we propose as additional features, that our user might find useful in combination with core functionality and that will allow us to support and develop the application. And it seems we achieved it rather good - some want both for free
I just downloaded but when creating the widget, my agenda won't load; stays in "loading" loop. Anyone know why? I'm using Nova launcher

Can you please raise it in an e-mail to [email protected] - we will try reproduce and debug your issue. To be honest situation with custom launchers maybe very tricky - we had a couple of them already.
Nice app! I'm going to give it a try. Downloading now.
Yeah I downloaded from google play, and got the up down arrows.

*Edit* same thing, arrows still there!

Because of a nasty mistake your phone gets a "fallback" Android 2.x compatible version. Sorry about that, and please wait for the coming version 1.1 that is going to fix this. Please re-evaluate in a week or so. If you wish to have fixed version right now you can join our alpha community. Just drop an email to support.

Dear All-in-One Agenda users!
It's been ten days since we released All-in-One Agenda to the public. We have passed 1000 of installations (few days ago), we have not only a lot of warm, positive feedback from satisfied users, but also requests for new functionality and features.
As replied by us in support emails and Play comments our focus during this period and upcoming weeks is to support users who find All-in-One Agenda useful by fixing as many bugs as we can (and you report to us). And that is why we released 3 bug-fix updates during these 10 days and one more is coming.
Today I want to announce the coming 1.1 release which is going to be public in few days. It is our active work to achieve our users' satisfaction:
- enable installation to tablet devices
- improved support for large screen phones (like Galaxy S4)
- features that will help us to troubleshoot users' issues
- fixes for the problems that were reported by our users via support e-mail, this community or crash reports in the application
That being said, I'd like to ask you not to hesitate to contact our support e-mail with any problem you might have or use our G+ support community to follow us and ask questions or write your suggestions. We want All-in-One Agenda to be as polished, as possible and serve our users.
One last thing. If you are active and experienced Android user and willing to participate in early access program to help us to test new features, you are welcome to join our Alpha-testing community. Let us know on support e-mail.

Some Android flavors don't allow to set/see birthdays of your contacts even if they are there - for example synced from GMail/contacts.
That is one of the features that All-in-One Agenda can help you with - you will see your contacts' birthdays (if they are set of course), even if your Android's default contact manager does not show them.
Not how to set them - In GMail/contacts you can set birthdays/anniversaries/etc with no problem. Also in some android contact mangers (e.g. some Samsungs, but others can have this as well) you can find "event" when you select to add a field to a contact. This is what you are looking for - after that you can select a "type" for that "event" - e.g. birthday - this will result in your contact having a birthday.

No, not really... Please check the description (that you so explicitly quoted) and a demo video on YouTube. It says very open and straight what is the core idea and free functionality behind it. It is to gather events in your Android device and show them in a convenient, well-designed and space-thrifty widget. Other features are supplementary and don't make much sense without the core idea.
A price of a good coffee is something that we think good idea and piece of software is worth.
Suggestion for new feature: clicking on the calendar tab (or make a new tab) that shows you a calendar instead of an agenda.
Another suggestion: option to put the tab options at the top or bottom instead of to the side. Most phones have more vertical real estate than horizontal real estate.

Browse the manga directory
Bookmark manga

Keep the reading progression
Full screen manga viewer
I hope you like it and if you have suggestions, I'll try to implement them.
Nice! Few Suggestions...
I only read mangas at Mangafox, so this, for me, is awesome! But can you please add:
• Arrange Mangas by Views/Chapters/Latest Updates like on Mangafox's Advance Search View
• Also from Advance Search View: Show each manga series wether it's New, Hot, Updated
• Another one from Advance Search View: Search Genre Combinations (like +Harem +Comedy -Horror -Mecha)
• Ads are annoying. Release of Paid (No-Ads) Application would be nice
But overall, a good start-up of a manga reader app! Will stay tuned for updates and such

Point 1 and 2 should be easy to implement.
Point 3 will be harder, may be I'll implement that for tablet and keep the current search for phone.
Thank you for your feedback.

Bug?
Hey man, can you check this out?
Some chapters don't finish their downloads. What now? Here's a screencast...
Download it here: Dropbox
Sorry if it's low quality. ShootMe is only the app than runs screencast on my phone (LG Optimus L3)...
Going back to the problem... So if you can see on the video, it always stops at page 9. Tried clearing cache, but bug is still there. Tried also two times (see video), but it doesn't work either.
And yes, I have a stable (kinda slow, but still) internet connection (you can see the speed on my status bar).
Can you kindly check it out?

UltimateBrowserProject
This Project has officially been discontinued. The reason is that I don't have time to work on this anymore. It was actually started as a fun project just to learn new stuff about programming in Android and with the overwhelming response, I just went on to learn more. But now, due to little or no time I cannot continue and have decided to discontinue this project for good.
If anyone would like to take over on my behalf, they are free to do so. Just make sure to keep the license intact. It has been a great time learning stuff and I sure have learnt a lot from this thing. To all those who have helped me and this application be a lot better, I'd like to thank you and I appreciate your support.
Those who're looking for a new, bright start, can check out Cornowser, started as a project by fellow developer of UBP.
Also, the source code is still on GitHub, if you'd like to mess around with it.
Now has been licensed as "Beerware", meaning you can do whatever you want with the code. You can also still download the stable & beta versions from the downloads tab of this page.
It has been a fun ride with you all, and I hope we can meet soon with a new project
Regards,
Thunderbottom

FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions -
Where are the settings?
Swipe the address bar upwards to reveal more options, the gear icon is where all the settings are.
It crashes way too often
Can't help much of it, all I request of you is to allow me to collect the crash data (Collected automatically on crash as of v.1.4.6, user option from v.2.0), or provide me the logs if you are rooted.
More features?
Yes, I'd love to add more features to the application, but I'm short of time. Too much real life bugs to deal with. If you are a Dev and would love to contribute, you can do it on the application's GitHub Page.
ETA for Updates?
Can't say anything about updates at this moment, but I try to do my best to code whenever I have time.
Is Beta stable for daily use?
No. Although you can install and use both the beta and the stable version at the same time
My phone got fried. Pls halp.
Can't, you need to be too stupid to think that an application like this has fried your phone.
This application is consuming too much RAM/Battery. Help?
Provide me with all the possible details that you can, else I can't help you. Sorry.
Print functions requires me to sign-in to my google account?
Yep, Google Cloud Print requires this so that you can save it online or print it wirelessly!
Custom user agent? What is it?
You can find about it here.
Can you add "so-so" feature?
Yes, but I can't guarantee a date though.
Where is chrome-like sync?
I don't know how to add it yet, as soon as I understand, I'll add it as well as some other API's
Why is this not on Play Store yet?
I'm a student and I'm broke. Simple as that.
There are rip-offs on Play Store!
Don't install them, they've just changed the app name and icon to something else. You may report them if they are paid or have no license! Thanks
Nice! How can I contribute?
If you are a Dev, you can help me with the project, or else you may buy me coffee! (Bitcoin - 17Lm28deyBPquaz3CBVncFPPPSoPPwA3oQ)

Yeah, if I find more generalized questions that someone might face while using this app, I'll add it here!

UltimateBrowserProject
UltimateBrowserProject is a to-be Open Source browser that aims to do the work unlike any other browser. Currently, it supports the following functions. (And Probably many more!)
Custom home:
When you first log in to the browser, the about:blank page is shown. Use the overflow menu's Add to home to pin webpages.Use the overflow menu's Relayout to customize your homepage.Long press on a card on the homepage, and you can edit the title.
Switch tabs:
You can set tab switcher position at top or bottom of the screen by changing the settings at Setting/Browser/Tab position.Press the address bar and drag it down or up, then the tab switcher will be displayed.Swipe up/down to dismiss a page.
Remember that if the soft keyboard is shown the tab switcher would not display, it's not a bug, but an intended design.
Load in Background:
Set UltimateBrowserProject as your default browser.A Single tap will open links in background, and show a clickable notification in statusbar. Double tapping the link will show a dialog that allows you to open links in foreground.
Volume control:
In Setting/Browser/Volume control you can set the volume keys behavior to:
Switch tabs.
Scroll webpages.
System default. (Works as default volume keys)
AdBlock Whitelist:
Since AdBlock maybe cause some websites to display error, you can add them to Setting/AdBlock/Whitelist
Screenshot:
UltimateBrowserProject can capture entire webpages!
But Unfortunately, that doesn't mean you can screenshot a very long page, which may cause the browser to go Out Of Memory.
Material Design:
UltimateBrowserProject is based on Google's Material Design standards! and is optimized for Android 5.1.
Lightweight:
One of the main purpose of this project is to keep the browser lightweight and NOT RAM hungry.
This Browser was created by having heavy usage in mind, along with the lightweight-ness. So, Maximum possible features have been implemented while keeping the application size as small as possible and as less RAM hungry as possible.
Application Screenshots
Note - The Default tab position is at the bottom, which can be changed to top in the application settings

TODO
Add new features based on people's demands
Splat Bugs (Not Yet)

More to come.

If you're talking about Mobile/desktop user agent for specific websites, yeah, I can try to do that.
EDIT: If you want me to make a "spoof" user agent, I suppose that will be a tougher task, will try though
Regards.
Very slick. I like having the address bar etc at the bottom. Much more accessible on a phone. One query: I believe adblock uses a lot of resources, in fact slowing the loading of pages and heating up the CPU while it does it. Is there a more lightweight option such as bluhell firewall or ublock which could be implemented?

Thanks for replying.
I am talking about being able to set mobile or desktop, but more importantly custom, user agents per site or per domain.
Habit Browser has such functionality, and it's the only browser I am aware of featuring it. Many browser offer a global mobile/desktop user agent toggle and that's pretty much it.
So I am always looking out for lightweight browsers that will have the UA features I've described.
I really love this browser. Its lightweight which is truely match with what you've said about this browser
I just want to check if this browser or my phone is the fault with delay inputs on forms such as textarea, passwordbox, textbox field.
Anyways setted this browser as my default love it.

mhmm I got you there, that would make this application heavier. I can try to store the data on the storage card and check if a website is Mobile or Desktop UA. But then that would make it RAM heavy. Will figure out a better way. Added this problem to my TODO list

Well you're right, but not here. I made a host file containing all the adblock elements which barely takes a KB of space in the application. when you open a website, it just checks out the host file and prevents ads from being generated. Slowing the page is never a problem due to adblock. Plus, for the firewall part, it would take up more space, making it heavy. UBlock is the same thing as adblock, the same script and stuff. So it won't make much of a difference.
Regards.
Just some suggestion if you don't mind it Mr.Developer
Can you just make a shortname of your browser because UltimateBrowserProject is too lengthy so I suggest named it UBP instead.
Add data compression so it would cut off the data usage.
Save page for offline reading- which allows a user to save a page to read it offline like how the youtube offline videos work.
Export page as PDF or any format- makes users dont depend on online services to download the page to their specified formats.
That's my suggestion.
More features plus lightweight and not ram hungry would definitely top on the browser category if this would be uploaded or add in the google play store.

I'll try to answer all your requests one by one
I've thought of compressing the name to UBP, I may do that in the future
Save page for offline reading is currently in my TODO List. By that time you can use the "Screenshot feature" which screenshots the page at high quality.
Export PDF requires a separate library and that would make it heavier I suppose. Definitely not on the list. You can share the page to Adobe PDF app which can convert the Page to a PDF.
Overall I've thought of all the things you have as feature request to be implemented in the application. I hope this helps.
I'll still be trying out the Export PDF for my dry runs and that release won't be soon. Plus, by making it heavy, this app becomes same as G Chrome which I don't want it to be.

Can you add ability to sign into websites using your fingerprint for phones that have a fingerprint sensor? Would be freakn sweet!!!

This app does NOT synchronize with online news feed readers (i.e. Feedly)
This application is free, without ads, open source
Feedback and suggestions are welcome
Amazing! The best of its kind!
Flym Fork is everything I wanted a RSS reader to be. It's interface is very similar to Flym which I was already using when I discovered Flym Fork. I prefer Flym Fork because it is updated regularly (basic Flym hasn't been updated since march 2017).
I can easily filter RSS feeds with keywords. I can customize the RSS lists like I've never been able to before (I can see a picture preview, the title AND a preview of the content).
I'll subscribe to this thread with hopes that this app will grow with even more options!

Hey there, I noticed a strange issue but I'm pretty sure I am doing something wrong. It would be nice if someone can explain what is my issue.
I'll show it with a simple example :
https://www.kijiji.ca/rss-srp-meuble-de-jardin/saint-hyacinthe/jardin-de-ville/k0c686l1700151r20.0
It returned nothing within Flym Fork BUT I can see one entry from it's original http URL :
https://www.kijiji.ca/b-meuble-de-jardin/saint-hyacinthe/jardin-de-ville/k0c686l1700151r20.0
Today, I deleted the feed and entered it again. Now it shows the entry.
I wonder if a "restart" feature would be useful for this sort of scenario. I see many advantages for it :
if I accidentaly deleted entries and I wanted them back, I could hit the restart button on this specific feed and everything would be trashed and loaded back again. Right?
Talking about deleted entries, maybe a trash bin with a custom cache time (like 24 hours) would be useful?
I'm just throwing ideas in. If there is already an option that allows to do what I want, I would be glad to hear how to do it.
Thank you!
Hello !
A RSS-reader is one of the main - and the key apps I use on a daily basis. What I mean by "the key app" is that I highly value being up-to-date with all of things I find interesting and important.
Over the years I've been using several RSS-clients. At some point I've met one particular app which seemed promising - but over the time ads were added and using the app wasn't convenient any more. To make matters worse splash-screen has been introduced - which also slowed the app (in the long run I find very important to be able just to instantly open an app).
So I needed the research again - to find another RSS-reader which could be right for Me. During the research one thing I found strange: several apps looked pretty similar to the one I've described before. Soon I've discovered Flym and its various forks, i.a. FlymFork by Yanus171. I picked a few which seemed most promising and contacted their developers (including the original app), equipped with some insights and key-requests which I've found crucial (like - for example - being able to enlarge text-size or switching articles by volume buttons). Only one person answered - that way I've discovered an app which I use to this day. Moreover, the app is more and more convincing and appealing - because new features are introduced, which also make a big difference in terms of both usability and user-experience as such. This is also why I am interested in this app's development: I'd love to see it growing, being more user-friendly (especially regarding average users, which requires a proper attitude) and a little bit more elegant and flexible. All of that is My dream which I'm brave to have because of how promising the app is now - and its Developer seems to be open-minded, generally responsive to various requests, ideas and loose thoughts.
What I find most useful so far:
User-friendly text size:
You can enlarge both article's - and articles list' text size - separately (which is important). It is crucial for Me because of limited vision/eyesight, I highly need big text and only in FlymFork I've found sufficient level of text size in articles and articles' lists. I guess there are not many users with limited eyesight out there - but that "trivial" tiny thing like enlarging text-size to pretty big may be crucial and final factor allowing some users to just using the app, let alone using it conveniently.
Convenient reading:
switching articles by volume buttons, "tap areas" and remembering the position of reading per article. All those features are fundamental in terms of usability, how easily and fluently You can use the app. I use volume buttons to switch next/prev articles - and combine it with tapping on top or bottom of the screen to scroll it up/downward. This way You can browse/read articles very easily and quickly - especially given that displayed articles are automatically marked as read. I find especially amazing that by tapping the top or bottom area - it scrolls exactly the whole content of the single screen - no matter where I've scrolled it before. Besides it's very convenient to have that ability to scroll the text exactly one page down/up - in case if You use volume buttons not to scroll, but to switch articles. On top of that FlymFork remembers where You've stopped reading all the articles - which is also very helpful.
Killer feature: Important Articles (so far it is known as a filter "mark as starred"). I subscribe several RSS channels and browse them when I have some "spare time" between other - main activities I'm highly into. As I've mentioned before, it's important for Me to be up-to-date with all I find interesting (several matters represented by favorite RSS channels). As far as subscribed channels are concerned, among these You may find information which You consider high-priority (maybe it requires an urgent action/checking out/etc.). One example could be posts on time-limited offers: if You check RSS news only from time to time (like Me, during "spare-time-windows" ) - it's easy to miss any urgent info. But if You'd be notified right after that kind of high-priority info shows up - it could be a game-changer. In other words: regardless of how often You are able to check the (RSS) news - You no longer miss anything important.
Read It Later (so far it is called "starred items"). My approach to RSS is that sometimes I have the time to read something - or just to quickly browse articles to pick up potentially interesting ones to read later. A wonderful thing is that I can put interesting articles "on the buck burner" with the certainty that they won't dissapear - regardless of time span I chose in the app's settings. This is another feature I find crucial in terms of how much this app is really helpful and useful in everyday life, fitting in various lifestyles (more or less time to read).
Kind requests - what I think would be a good idea to implement and make the app growing:
I. Nomenclature - be more user-friendly.
I think there is a lot of room for improvement in terms of how the app communicates with users - especially keeping in mind average users who just want to be up-to-date with all they like/they are interested in. No need to be a computer geek, power user, etc. I'm sure there are many users who don't know what RSS is - but would be definitely interested in being in touch with all which is important to them (via RSS channels). It would be sufficient to supply an app which will communicate with them using non-technical language, this way being more comprehensive, avoiding various potential confusions derived out of "non-technicality". I think this is a good idea to care about average people - not only users with the knowledge, however basic or advanced. I'd like to see the app which I could use without knowing all the technical details - FlymFork would be excellent being that way - and in the same time maintaining more "geeky" features somewhere "under the hood" (like - for example - handling websites with no RSS feed!). As a result both user-bases would be content: power users with their needs - and average users with almost no technical knowledge and nomenclature in mind.
Moreover, by implementing various "touch-ups" within the nomenclature itself the app would become more human = more friendly. And this would be one of key-factor to choose FlymFork instead of any other app.
I would suggests several touch-ups:
Rename "Favorites" as "Read It Later".
I think it would be definitely more precise and understandable than "favorite". Imagine You are an average - non-technical user. Then imagine You see "Read It Later" option in the app: it's very easy to know what that feature is for. But why I (or an average user) could "mark something as favorite"...? I think it would be much more convincing to put it as "Read It Later".
"Articles" instead of "entries" or "posts".
This one is a request of similar mold as previous one. Although there are many users (programmers? ) who are accustomed to name things as "entries"/"items" - there are even more users for whose it would be much more friendly to name things simply as "articles": more human, more understandable, without need to think "Do I really know for sure what does 'the entry' mean?". So I highly suggest to change "entries" into "articles" app-wide, everywhere where a word "entry" (or "entries") is used - to change it into "article/articles". For example, instead of notification message "XX new entries" I would suggest "XX new articles". Moreover, for FlymFork to be more friendly I would love to see it put as "You have XX new articles to browse." . It would be so exciting to use an app which is so friendly - on a daily basis ! Small change, but big impact - I'm sure the angel (not the devil) is in the details .
"Updating (which could take some time), please wait..." instead of "updating" - and "You have XX new articles to browse." instead of "XX new entries".
While updating, FlymFork displays two notifications: one is displayed only temporarily and contained originally only the time of the update - the other informs how many new articles has arrived. Since the temporary one is often displayed even a few minutes - it could be a little bit confusing. Fortunately now it has been changed into "updating" - now I know what is happening and why I'm still seeing this notification on the bar. To make it accordingly more friendly (as I've pointed out earlier) I would suggest to change sole "updating" into "Updating (which could take some time), please wait...". This way there is no place for any confusion or uncertainty on what is happening - moreover, users are now prepared that updating can take some time, and it's not complete yet (and this is important information). When updating is complete, FlymFork displays a notification "XX new entries" - I would suggest to change it into "You have XX new articles to browse." - again, to make it more human/more friendly/more understandable. I think many users would appreciate it.
"Important Articles" instead of "Mark(ed) as starred".
I refer to the 'Important Articles' concept I've mentioned before. Many people would benefit from this feature if it would be clear what is it for. I think what would help is to rename it from "Mark as starred" (in the filter configuration) / "Marked as starred" (in the notification) - to "Notify on Important Articles" (in the filter config.) and "New Important Article" (as notification).
"Full articles instead of excerpts" instead of "retrieve full text" - again: more understandable for average users.
If I will notice another instances where we could have the app communicating with the user in a more friendly way - I'll let You know, but those above are essential because they are most often seen by users while using the app.
II. Multiple fonts.
I think the more flexible an app is - the wider user-base it can reach (because it can meet more individual tastes). Ability to change the article font (as well as the font of articles' list - it may be one setting for all) could make more users smile . For example, I would especially recommend the font "Lato Light" for it resembles widely known "Roboto Light" propagated by Google, but in My opinion is more "fluid" and elegant - or less "edgy", to put it differently. Wherever I can, I use Lato Light - it could be great to have it here ! More information on Lato font You can find here (I recommend to read the 'about' section for those who are interested in typography - You will find interesting information there!): fonts.google.com/specimen/Lato.
III. Progress bar.
With limited sight I could barely notice its existence - but it looks like great idea, to have that subtle progress bar accompanying reading and indicating how much we are engrossed in the content . I think this bar would be, however, a little bit visible - and still subtle (I'd love to be able to set My own color to it!). Now the hour displayed next to it is so tiny... The progress bar being so small has no use for Me - but it does would be useful if a little bit bigger and placed on the background (of the color according to app's theme). BTW, not everybody is interested in being always informed what time is it - so it would be definitely great to be able to turn off displaying the time alongside progress bar somewhere in the options.
IV. FTP synchronization.
Although this is not crucial - I think it would be something making FlymFork considerably standing out, especially if You consider that FlymFork "does NOT synchronize with online news feed readers (i.e. Feedly)". I think it would be much better to be able to synchronize several things over the FTP. I saw that feature in Anki - an Android app to memorizing. On one side it has its own cloud with the synchronization service - but on the other it offers its users an ability to synchronize via their own FTP server (!). I find this feature amazing and - although I'm not a developer - I guess it would be done: to implement synchronization via user-defined FTP server. It should synchronize everything needed for fluent, transparent usage of FlymFork on multiple devices. An ideal effect should be not to feel that anything changed when You grab another device. So we need synchronization:
[*]List of subscribed RSS feeds/channels.
Status of reading (which articles are read, which not yet - and which are marked as starred/Read It Later - plus notification on Important Articles).
Position of reading per article.
Last viewed article (if enabled in settings).
Also FlymFork should notify if any problems with accesing an FTP server occurs - as well as on successful synchronization. Besides, it would be good to be able to choose the synchronization's interval somewhere in settings.
I'm not sure if would it be possible but maybe You could add a Google Drive as another place to synchronize?
V. Localization.
Although I'm all right with using the app communicating in English - I know there are many users who don't know the language, using their own native one. In My case it is Polish - and I would be interested in translating the app into Polish in order for FlymFork to communicate in this language when Polish Android instance is detected. What do You think about it?
Bugs:
Multiple "External link" items on the sidebar.
Using the app over the time there are many "External link" items on the bar - which contain an error message ("Error: attempt to invoke...") and seem to be useless. If I suppose correctly that they are not necessary - it would be definitely great to hide them in order to the sidebar not being littered.
"Setting up automatic marking of articles as read while scrolling the list".
I can't find or observe this option in action - where is exactly located? Is it possible to turn it on/off? If no, would it be (I think it would be a good idea)?
I wanted to cover all topics but I think it would be better to publish it now and add any further remarks at some later point - this way You could make FlymFork better earlier . So I hope You find the ideas described above useful.
Kind regards,
Thomas Leigh
First of all thank you for app reviews. They will infulence the app development.

After you have refreshed the feed the last update time is remembered, and the subsequent refresh will only load the articles after that date|time. There is a Delete all option in artcile list menu which also resets the last feed date time. After that operation, subsequent refresh will load all articles that exist in the feed. But there may be loaded articles in FlymFork, which do not exist in feeds (feed contains only last several articles). Such artciles would NOT be loaded after Delete all operation

Long tap on feed and check Show article text in list. In this mode atricles are makred as read automatically while scrolling (It was a bit hard to realized that feature). This mode is very usefull to with short text articles, like forum post which have RSS. (But now it is possible even without RSS)
Buy the way in the next app release View attachment ru.yanus171.feedexfork_0.7.2_100.apk there will be a new feed setting Load type that allows to load the url not as RSS, but as webpage. So we can load the articles from webpages which do not have RSS In such a case all web page links are loaded as articles, and the url is also loaded as article too (It isritythe first). To reduce the amount of links the filter should be applyed to feed. You'd better temporaly turn on Show articles url setting for that.
It is very handy to filter using regular expressions checkbox. But I realize that requires advanced knowledge. But you can mail me and I will give you required regexp filter for your page.

Thank You for pointing out. Indeed it works - and it works in a gently way: not marking articles as read just after they disappear from the screen, but a little bit later (scrolling-wise).
It is amazing feature and it would be excellent to have it working in the "Unread" list, would it be possible? I mean article text displayed also in the "Unread" list, alongside marking them as read while scrolling.

Yeah, i have about 90 feed sources and receive 1K news to read.
I need something to sort out what i need to read and save what i will read (read later feature will be really useful too)
I'm currently using Aggregator RSS (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.tughi.aggregator)
I recently noticed flym fork. I's really good.
Take a look at Aggregator, maybe you'll find something to implement in flym fork.
I use RSS everyday.
Thanks for your app.

Yes, of course.
Here is a list of point about why I am using Aggregator right now.
It does not want to be a criticism for its own sake, but a list from which to take inspiration.:good:
LONG PRESS on feed list allow me to "mark as read", "create exclusion rule" and "share".
WEBSITE ICON option to view website icon instead on letters/images (Main page) .
SPEED It took about 7 minutes to fetch all feeds, vs 1 minute by Aggregator.
NETWORK USAGE 90MB used vs 3MB used by Aggregator. EDIT: Probably related to images.
GUI I think Aggregator has a better implementation of the material design guidelines (Layout/Icon/Menu/Sidebar) .
Custom refresh interval per feed?
Hello, I still use Flym Fork and I love it! It's that great!
I do have a feature suggestion that would totally change the game for me (and probably other users) : can we set a custom refresh interval per feed? I have some feeds that must be refreshed every 5 minutes while some of my other feeds can be refreshed once a day.
Right now, EVERYTHING is refreshed on the same timer.. It generates a lot of useless refreshes on some of my RSS feeds. It generates data and battery usage that I can avoid.
Thank you!
Flym Fork+TTS
Flym Fork is amazing app. I promised to write something how I use it. So:
I have some RSS sources with interesting articles, but no time to read. But when I travel or do something boring housework, I have time to listen.
So I often use menu option "share all text" and send them to @voice app. (Resp. option @voice add to list".)
I collect list of interesting stories and when I have time I listen it.
If you want use @voice, you need good TTS system with good natural voices. For me is the best option "Vocalizer", where I bought some good voices. (For English I like UK English Serena, for Czech language Iveta.)
I also use it for reading books in FBreader and "Cool reader" apps.
That is all Flym Fork is one of my most useful app.
Best regards
Pavel

Hi guys.
First thanks dev, this app is awesome.
I just experience some trouble with the widget which is not updating. Any idea?
I'm on EMUI Oreo with Lawnchair launcher.
Tried to disable all battery oriented settings for both the launcher and this app without success.
Is there something I'm missing?
Thanks for your help.
Miaou
Did you tick the option to let the app always run in background aside from disabling battery optimization? I had trouble wirh some messengers if that wasn't enabled.

Hello @yanus171,
at first thank you for Flym Fork (Handy News Reader). I did a pull request for the german translation update. Would you send me a beta please to check if all strings are right?
Thank you and happy christmas
