I normally use FeedR; it is the only widget that gives me news headings from one feed on the face of the widget AND the abiility to side-scroll via arrows through different feeds. Since YEARS I have been in search of a better looking widget that offers the same functionality.
I did come across two such widgets: one is Yandex RSS widget, and the other is Sony RSS Small App. Both do not work with Nova Launcher.
All the other RSS widgets I see offer just a single feed, or worse, a mishmash of feeds. Does anyone know of a good looking RSS widget (not reader) that provides this functionality?

hi,
is there a rss widget like google ones for any site i like so i can put them together in coloms?
I'm looking for an RSS Widget that I can sync up with my google news reader. A cross between News Rob and Widget Board would be great. Anybody know of something like this?
+1 looking for something like this also. something as a widget which i can scroll through the feeds
Kox is supposedly working on a Pure RSS widget and will be scrollable much like his Pure Messenger widget.
I use FeedR (paid) which has such widgets. I've read, it also allows Google Reader sync but I do not use it.
Hi,
I hope I'm in the right section.
Before you start shouting at me for asking a question that's been asked a thousand times before, I'll quickly explain what I'm looking for:
- RSS reader with Google Reader integration
- must have a widget similar to Scrollable News Widget
I have been on NewsRob for ages but it annoys me that it doesn't have a proper widget. Today I've tried Feedr and gReader but I don't like the widgets. They're quite impractical and (sorry!) ugly. I've got Scrollable News Widget on my homescreen which I love but it lacks Google Reader integration.
Any help is appreciated!
Thanks,
koni
I believe there is a widget in the market called Atoma RSS. Scrollable widget with Reader integration.
atoma Rss is the best. I've try so many rss reader, first Buzzbox was so good, but now i can't update feed using it.AtomaRss is better, but still have some prob: can't remember google account, only support widget size: 4x2,4x3 and 4x4
Thank you both, atoma looks great. Do you know how I can get rid of the colour bar on the left and if it syncs with Google Reader?

I've been looking for much the same myself. I tried Atoma but wasn't entirely happy with it either. I don't see a way to display just a group of feeds from my Google Reader account. This is important since I use Google Reader for my Listen podcasts as well as other feeds that I simply archive there. It also doesn't sync read articles back to the website.
My search for better scrollable widgets did prompt me to compile a list that I just posted to the Android Themes forum. If you find any other options, please let us know of it there as well.

For now, I'm still searching, confident that one of the more developed RSS readers will eventually add a scrollable widget.
Hello all
I used FeedR Pro. That's the only RSS reader which gives me the option to see a single page of feeds on the widget and scroll through all my feed sources by tapping the arrow keys.
The only problem is, it looks kind of butt ugly.
I have searched through various RSS readers on the Market, most of them are very pretty but don't give me the functionality of FeedR, i.e. having all my feeds on one widget divided between pages.
Does anyone know a better looking RSS widget with all of these features?
There appear to be very few RSS reader widgets with vertical scrolling. In fact, there aren't that many RSS widgets at all. Does anyone know of a decent widget that uses vertical swiping to scroll up and down the top Google Reader RSS news articles?
APW Google Reader is one of the best Google Reader RSS widgets out there. It requires the Google Reader app to be installed first, but other than that, no problems. APW is also skinnable, so feel free to customize the look.
