FeedEx News Reader is a light, modern, totally free (no ads) and opensource project which keeps you inform by fetching your websites/blogs and displaying them in a mobile-optimized way. It is based on the "Sparse rss" reader and is able to read RSS/Atom feeds.
It DO NOT synchronizes with any online feed reader, but do you really need feeds synchronization now you always have your phone with you?
Features:
- easily add new feeds thanks to the finders or subscribe to a new one from the browser via the share feature
- offline reading including images
- import/export the feed list from OPML
- retrieve the full text of the feed when the content is truncated
- star your favorite entries
- filter your feed by keywords or regular expressions
- custom widget
Feedly users: you can export your feeds to OPML at this address (cloud.feedly.com/#opml) and then import them into FeedEx News Reader.
Any help would be very appreciated!

Here is a link for folk https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=net.fred.feedex
Thanks for your work.
Thanks, I like this
I like the modern design and the dark theme.
A request ... In the widgets, it would be good if the user could choose the number of lines to display per item of news. To clarify, I'd like to see the main news item in bold at a user defined size along with maybe a line or two (as opted by me) of the news details. The headline alone does not allow me to understand if the item is worth opening. To get an idea of the look of the widget I intend, look at Scrollable news widget
Another thing is ... to keep in line with the latest Gmail, remove the refresh button and let the user pull down to refresh.
Cheers
Hi!
Sorry for the late answer, with the holidays I forgot it
Concerning the widget, I agree there is lot of improvements to do. This is not my priority because I would like to add some features to the application before (search, tablet support), but I'll do it and make FeedEx News Reader better and better, I just need time
Great app, thank you for this. I give you five stars in Play Store. Finally i can get rid of annoying feedly.
I have a question, though: how does exclusion filter work? Tried to apply it to some feed, seems not to work or i can't understand something. Let me explain. I read some russian news site called Mignews. The problem with them is that they don't post sport news in separate feed, and i totally uninterested in sport news. Every sport-related entry has a title starting with 'MIGsport:' and the actual title after it, so i thought i can filter these entries out by entering MIGsport: and checking «Apply to title», but these entries are still there. I am doing something wrong or don't understand the purpose of filtering?
Thanks for the stars I'm glad to see that some people really like FeedEx.
Concerning your issue, I think the filter is working but you have to know that it's effective only on futur news. The already downloaded news are kept, even if they match with the filter.
Can you confirm me that?
Well, I understand. Let me check it for couple of hours and I'll report back.

Ok, if it's does not work, then there is chances that there is a bug inside FeedEx
I don't think it's a bug, let's wait and see. I set the app to auto-refresh every 30 minutes. What I'm going to do is to compare my timeline in FeedEx with desktop reader and my girlfriend's one. This way I'll know for sure. Will report my results later today.

OK, tested and filtering works for newly downloaded entries! Thanks a lot!

You're welcome.
I agree it's a little confusing, I should explain this somewhere into the app
Thank you for your application, it is very convenient! Tell me, are there plans to make a list of feeds foldable and add the ability to reduce the font in the "news"? On my Note2 they look very big.
Hi!
Sorry for the late answer
Concerning the possibility to fold the feeds, I was possible before but not today. I remove it to allow to clic on a group and to have more simplicity into the navigation drawer. For my use, the folding feature is still present into the feed edit screen to allow to move them easily into groups.
So I'm sorry but there is currently no plans for adding it again.
And concerning the font size can you post a screenshot or explain where exactly do you find the font too big?
Hi HoloAddict!
Nice program, thanks for your excellent work. By the looks of it, the only developing standalone RSS feed reader with offline mode on the market.
Some feature suggestions for this app:
- would be nice to be able to configure font and font size. I find current font the program uses is a bit inconvenient for my eyes. I would prefer the one used by gReader. But others may like the current font. Would be nice to have it configurable.
- would be nice to have per-channel settings for number of items and item expiration. Would also be nice to be able to prevent unread items from being automatically cleared (but still clear the read ones).
- would be nice to have channel groups collapsing and expanding in the channel list - this would save space in the channel list and optimise it's navigation.
- buttons "Show original text" and "See in browser" in the article reading mode - can you make them smaller or move to the header row? Or at least make this option configurable? For short articles they take half of the screen
- would be nice to have "back" button to return you from article list to channel list, and not quit the program (this might be personal. I just got used to this hierarchy: channel list --> article list --> article).
Apart from that - great app, thanks for your work!

You're the second one who tell me this. I personnally prefer the one use by feedex (otherwise I would not have choose it ), I believe it's less tiring. Do other people think as darsh?
- would be nice to have per-channel settings for number of items and item expiration. Would also be nice to be able to prevent unread items from being automatically cleared (but still clear the read ones).

I do not want the first part (to keep it simple), but the second part is interesting, I think I'll implement it.
- would be nice to have channel groups collapsing and expanding in the channel list - this would save space in the channel list and optimise it's navigation.
Click to expand...

It was like this before, but I changed my mind to keep simplicity (code and UI) and allow some actions like clicking on a group. Moreover I used group collapsing especially for feed sorting, not for reading it everyday.
- buttons "Show original text" and "See in browser" in the article reading mode - can you make them smaller or move to the header row? Or at least make this option configurable? For short articles they take half of the screen
Click to expand...

I do not understood this one... Why the size of these buttons is a problem ? They are always at the bottom of the text.
- would be nice to have "back" button to return you from article list to channel list, and not quit the program (this might be personal. I just got used to this hierarchy: channel list --> article list --> article).

You're not the only one to ask me this. I could do it but this is against the android principle of a navigation drawer. Look at the gmail app, the back button doesn't open the drawer. And if I do like you said, I can't quit the app with the back button... Moreover, the back button should do what it's aimed for: going back, not open a menu.
@HoloAddict: Actually, I wanted to ask for same: to place «Retrieve the full text» and «See in browser» buttons side by side. It looks better and more «polished» and takes less place.
Sent from my GT-I9505 using Tapatalk
Side by side? I agree it would be better but I'm affraid there won't be enought width on lot of phone to be able to do that...
Nice App
@HoloAddict thanks for this App. I´m using youre feed reader now for a week and it´s really nice. Only thing missing for me atm is to switch filter from exclusion to inclusion because there are some feeds where I would prefer to get only news for filtered terms. :good: :good: :good:

Finally out of Beta and available on the Play Store !
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.jv.minimalreader
Hey folks!
I've been hard at work these past weeks to take my Minimal Reader Widgets to the next level. I finally reached a milestone of stability, performance and usability, and I just couldn't help but sharing it with you guys.
I'm proud to introduce Minimal Reader 3.0 - Bringing a full Google Reader experience on your Android device with a brand new APP in addition to the widgets!
The App follows the latest ICS Guidelines and is available from Android 2.2 and above. It's clean, fast and simple to use.
There's a new color system that let's you associate a color to a particular feed, so you can easily spot it when scrolling through lists of news.
App and widgets are completely synchronized, so you can both quick read through your daily feeds on a widget and explore more content in the app when you have time.
The app should be pretty straightforward to use, give it a spin, and if you encounter any issues/bugs, please report them in a detailed comment on this thread.
I'm really looking forward to your feedback, and to make it easy for me, please give me your opinion by simply answering these three questions :
1/ what do you like about the app
2/ what do you miss (compared to other news app maybe)
3/ how would you improve it
Here are some screenshots :
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
gonna test
For me the minimal reader is the best reader/widget. I'm looking forward to test this beta.
First impression: really fast, but I don't have tried the older version (2.6)
What I liked: velocity
What I missed: possiblity to change the mobilizer. Readability Mobilizer is better than the Instapaper One (imho)
Suggestions:
1) after the tap on "mark all as read", the app should refresh the ui to not show again the feed marked as read. If I'm in the "browse" view, under a certain folder, it should prompt me to the upper folder
2) the name of the tabs are too big/long: as you can see from the picture above, the words "reading list (0)" and "favourites (0)" are too close.
I like the look, and feeling a lot. Just like 2.6, but great to have a app with it now
Things I miss: Synchronization interval
Suggestions:
Change the order of my labels, now you would have to add labels 1 by 1 to get the order you want. Would be nice if it could just be added all at once, and be reordered afterwards
Maybe an option to rename the labels in the app (only for the app, so leave the label name as it is in google reader), with the same reason as above poster
Maybe I missed it, but just saw there is no option for adding an individual rss feed. Not a problem for me, but maybe other people still like to add them all manually
This is great stuff guys, exactly the stuff I need to hear to prioritize features.
Keep it coming!

Look forward to testing this, thanks

Another suggestion/missing feature:
Refresh on app startup
Suggestion:
Option to hide read labels (unless all are read/show all is selected) So you wont have to scroll through empty labels to get to the ones you havent read yet
Is it possible to add an export favourite news option? Just a simple html list with the title and link of the news, something like that.
Best news reader ever
Going to test. Just downloaded the beta. Will tell you how it works on both CM9 and CM7.
Cheers!!
I'm actually live coding your suggestions right now
Here's my TODO list atm :
From XDA :
----------------
ADD : Reorder colums in manage screen
ADD : hide columns when no more news (option ?)
ADD : Auto refresh in background option
ADD : Refresh on startup option
FROM ME :
----------------
ADD : sync starred from greader as favorites
ADD : white theme
ADD : tutorial with recommended labels
ADD : Tablet UI
This is great. Thanks guys !
Nice
Loved the widget, but now with the app its even better
I used the application for quite sometime.
Device: Motorola Defy (Rooted + Custom ROM)
ROM: White Rabbit v1.5 - Gingerbread 2.3.7
Pros:
Works Fast even on Edge
Really good looking widget with nice features
Design is good to look at. But I feel the 'carbon' theme is kinda distracting. But its just my feeling.
Changes I Would Love:
The tab texts are quite long. Better if they were smaller and space between was larger. (Already given)
The title text of content is a tad big. A smaller text would be better and feel flush with the total design. Previously given menu choice of 'Small' text makes it too small = Ability to choose a proper text size using a slider with numbers (Higher flexibility?)
The space between the contents in the widget could be slightly more.
FORCE CLOSE
The main app FCs every time I press the hard 'menu' button or the 'more' icon on the top-right corner. You should check that for sure.
It again FCs every time I press a feed in the 'Browse' tab under the reading list. FCs every single time.
Will the beta testers be given free licenses?

Great feedback, thanks.
About the FCs, could you download Sendlog from the play store (free) and send me a log after reproducing both crashes ?
It works fine on my CM7 galaxy S (2.3.7).

That is the dropbox link for you. I didn't know a better way to send it across. Hope you find it useful. If you can't download, just reply. I'll make sure you are able to.

Just installed the beta and I love it for most part. There are a couple things I don't like though and all of them are cosmetic (not too much of a biggie but I like my homescreens looking good):
1. For the widget, I dislike the new size of the "header". The 3 buttons and the counter (also the new MR button) are quite bigger than on 2.6. Much liked the previous size better.
2. Still concerning the widget, the new button that launches the full reader is a bit unsightly. Even though the icon represents MR, maybe a more subtle icon can be used instead that is more inline with the 3 other header icons (simple, single colored icon). If not, then maybe let us specifically hide only this icon (also allow the counter to be moved to the left most if the icon is hidden).
3. Hope you are still working on making the widget look more sightly when there are no items. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=24773750#post24773750
Other than these, I'm pretty content.
Thanks for your hardwork!
Minimal Reader Pro 3.0
Hi Joenrv!!
I heard the latest news by this forum, when I came to see if my eternal "refresh" problem can be solved!
I was very surprised, that a new big update even in beta, but, I was disappointed to know this version only works in 2.2+ android version! Mine is 2.1 and still be for some time!
So please, can you tell me if for my version, no more updates will be released?
Thanks in advance!

Hi Alex, unfortunatly I have no plans on supporting Android 2.1 ... I'm using libraries that work on Android 2.2 and above only ...
But If you're here on this forum, you must know ways to flash a higher version on your phone... I mean what phone today has no custom ROM > 2.2 here on XDA?
Very nice app and widget. I like the clean and simple interface. I was going to suggest white theme (not only for pop-ups), but I see it's already on todo list.
Small remark - can you remove or add option to remove the horizontal padding of the widget - it doesn't expand fully horizontally and visually differs in width compared to other widgets I have (vertically there is no such padding/margin).
Could Minimal Reader use https to connect to google reader? For some reason, I have to use proxy and it only supports https.
Thanks.
META WIDGET
Meta is a unique app that can turn virtually any online content into dynamic, interactive widgets.
Simply browse to a website, pick a column of text, link or image and enjoy this information right on your home screen!
Why is this cool you ask? Because almost anything can be parsed out of a website - images, blogrolls, RSS feeds or entire windows.
Any widget created through Meta can be customized and automatically updated, or updated on user interaction.
Features
★ Create widgets from almost any website element
★ Parse graphs and images
★ Extract statistics and information from authorized sites
★ Configure widgets (background, alignment, etc.)
★ Automatic updates
★ User defined click actions
★ Lots of other cool stuff
Status
The app is currently quite stable, but we still prefer to call it a beta. So please, do write to us with suggestions or bug reports!
Play Store
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=fahrbot.apps.metawidget
The free app has everything but automatic updates. Please buy the Key - that would help us a lot

Widget Maker
We also make a companion app called Widget Maker. It allows you to staple together many widgets, including Meta Widgets:

Hmm... i just tried on three devices (hc, ics, cm9) and the keyboard pops up fine when clicking the login field.
Can you please try another site? Or maybe a reboot? We use the webkit browser and its not flawless so the keyboard hiding we do at first run may be screwing with it.
Lets see if we can fix this for you.
1.0.2.1
Fixed keyboard issue present on some phones
Fixed image cache optimization (much faster now)
Fixed a rendering issue that occurs if data connection is lost
Fixed a few device-specific issues from user feedback
Nice idea, like it. But how do i prevent making a list view from content?

This is awesome. Tried to make some widgets, but i don't have so much ideas. Anyway the keyboard sometimes don't work, i must exit and start again, and sometimes back button doesn't go to previous page but exit the widget config. A possible overall preview would be nice(maybe full screen preview) since i make some changes and don't know how the widget will look. Another thing that i noticed is that when i select an element, in selection section it shows on center and nice aligned on every row, but when i put it on homescreen it's just one row after another. Here it's an e.g:
Selection:
---------
###
---------
**
Homescreen:
-------###------**
Also would be possible to take whole div, not only an element from that? I tried to take a div that contains some text and an image, but only the text was selected. This is a nice piece of work, keep up the good work.

Hi. Thanks. If you like it, please leave a comment on the play store - at this early junction good reviews will help us spend more time making things better
Regarding the preview - its in the works, though it is pretty complex to do. We will use our Prepaid Widget as a template, so you can have a look at that if you want a a preview of how thew preview will look...
Re many elements. ATM its only possible to select one at a time. We are working on an internal launcher which will allow you to move all the elements around. Its slated for release this month.

Review added on market. This would be huge, if you can implement multiple elements. Select one, two ore w/e elements and move them around, awesome!
Just something that i forgot to ask, sometimes it takes up to 150MB RAM, usually 50~60MB isn't a bit much?
Pretty awesome app. I can't for the kufe of me figure out how to set the widget on my desktop. I assume I need the paid app. Most likely user error I'm just dumb lol.

It's a widget. Long press on homescreen, search for MetaWidget and start configure it:
- Enter a website, select an element(click on it then use the arrows from bottom to select between multiple elements)
!!! make sure you have the checkbox from bottom-left ticked !!!
- Click on the plus sign near the ticked box to select that element and go to widget preference screen.
- Configure the text alignment, size, background color, w/e...
- Click OK , select widget size then select OK again, and you'r done.

We will implement multiple elements soon when our widget constructor comes out. Within two weeks the beta will be up.
Re ram - this is because of images. And of course the cache of the webkit browser, which once closed is shunted out of ram.
On modern devices this isnt a problem though...

Click to expand...

Filters are search patterns you can define to perform a specific action on feed items.
Let's say you don't want to read any news containing "CentOS updates" (or "Apple IOS" ) in it's title. So you define a filter which can be applied to a specific feed or label and you set it's action to mark an item as "read" when any of new feed items contain that search phrase in it' title (and/or context).
Another option is to set action to 'watched'. In this case the item with the search phrase will be placed in "Watched" folder (label) and color coded.
Action "watched and notify" also shows notification when matching items arrive.
New version is online!
New v.1.1.197 is online with many new features and improvements!

Looks really good!
Like: filters, configurability
Dislike: all these share icons - should be configurable (e.g., no point in having a G+ button or a Twitter button if I don't use them...)
P.S.
I found a typo in the about dialog (infromation->information).

Whoa, you're quick
More suggestions:
1) Reading Engadget's feed in the eye-with-list mode, the photos are too wide for the screen.
Can they be auto-scaled like in the just-eye mode?
(My problem with the just-eye mode is that it only shows part of the text)
2) The star icon should IMHO be in the same line with the other icons.
3) The icons are beautiful and effective --- once you know what they stand for.
I suggest you add a help button (that can be configured not to show, once you get the hang of it), that will call upon a quick tutorial (e.g., a screenshot of the interface with individual button explanations).

The eye in the circle is a text (simple) only preview, which also includes an image from the feed. The eye with a list is a 'web' or 'original' view mode, that is original feed content in a webview. I can change the original one, but I think it would be even better to modify text preview. Right now i have limited it to displaying only the first 5 lines of a feed item, but that thing will also be configurable.
Regarding the star, you are also right, will add an option to move it to the item's quick action menu (buttons) or keep it where it is now.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=atz-GnEDevk is a quick introduction to using the app
Thank you a lot for your feedback!
Some more ideas and comments (tell me if you're fed up with feedback, I'll understand...)
- only after watching the video I could get some of the buttons (e.g., mark previous as read). But the video is almost 10 minutes long, and people don't have much patience for it. A quick what-buttons-do is imperative, IMHO.
- some buttons have a wide, irreversible effect (e.g., mark all/previous as read). An undo button could prove useful. Or perhaps a confirmation dialog?
- since I tend to read feeds with many small items, the most important button for me is "mark single item as read". The button is rather small, so I can only hit it 80% of the time; in the other 20%, I change the preview mode. Maybe there should be an easier way to mark individual items as read, for instance make it possible to choose which button precedes the item title (where the star currently is), so people like me could put the mark-as-read button there.
- when switching orientation (portrait <-> landscape), it closes the current item and resets the preview mode (to text). Usually the reason for me to rotate the phone is to get more width for a specific item that needs it (e.g., has an html table), so please make it remember
- would it be possible to choose whether text/web preview is the default? I always use web preview
- jreader's icon keeps swinging in the notification bar for hours. Does it mean it's working? completed?
- in the filters activity, I think it's better to have similar icons for backup and restore; maybe a diskette with in/out arrow?
- in the add/edit filter activity, I think it'd be more clear to have some other UI element instead of a checkbox to choose between "title only" and "title and contents", perhaps a push button; also, what does the crosshair button do?
- in the movie it seems to work, but on my device I cannot chose to which label/feed a filter is applied. I only have "any feed" / "any label" in the drop-down boxes.
Thanks again!
Feels great...thanks

Great app
something similar to "Everything" for windows PC
Sent from my falcon using Tapatalk
Thanks, if you have any suggestions please tell me so that I can improve the app in the next updates.
nice
great idea, but here is what I think
- UI should be shrinked (text size of some items in the fragment adapter)
- The ad banner is exactly over the input text field in my device :crying:
- you should also add some specific sections, like music and photo
Short feedback/requests from my side:
1. The quick search works flawlessly. Good job :good:
2. Dividing the search results into three categories is nice, but maybe another categorie ("All") would be useful.
3. A search widget (similar to the Google search bar) would be awesome, so one can easily search for files right from the homescreen without entering the app. Entering the app is quite circumstantial for a quick search. The launcher "EverythingMe" has implemented this in an awesome way (popup with search results, with which you can interact with, for example open the app/contact/file). Would something like this be possible?

Thanks, the 'ALL' section seems nice and maybe if the app gains more users I start a poll for it.
Also about the search widget, I don't think anybody (at least at this moment) is going to replace the 'Google Search' widget with 'Fast Search' widget and I think a constant notification in the notification bar may be more useful. Anyway I try to add them both in the next updates.
Also I haven't tried the 'Everything.Me' but could predict what you mean from popup window. And yes it's possible and I'll try to add it.
Thank you for your notes guys.

I would immediately replace the Google search widget with yours
For the popup in EverythingMe: When you start typing something in the search bar, related apps, contacts and more are shown below as can be seen in the attached picture below. But for EverythingMe, the launcher simply hides the current page with its objects and shows the search results instead. This seems quite cool for a launcher, but for a widget it would be nice if there is some kind of popup right below the search widget which shows the search results (maybe some kind of white material card background, for example).

Crashes all the time
Never showed any results. Note3 Jb 4.3
Thank you all for your comments.
The new version (1.1) has been published now with some changes (You can view them in the second post of this topic).
I think those crashes reported and some non-reported ones are fixed now.
Also added persistent notification that was clearly needed for this type of app.
So in the next version probably I will add the search widget and some other improvements that (maybe) would get suggested

Great update, you should release it on the Play Store
The app is now updated to version 1.2.1 with the support of a 'Google Search' like widget.
You can download it from the attachments of first post in this thread.
The full change list is on the second post of the first page in this thread.
Also I removed the older versions because i saw some people still downloaded previous versions while the newer versions were there!

I'm living in IRAN and Google has currently banned my country in the developer section. So I can't publish the application on the Google Play Store. Sorry that I can't help you

very bad my friend... but I know it's not your fault
Suggestion !!!!
Idea is great and is similar to SAMSUNG S-FINDER, if you can implement such in your app....than it can be very very handy.....s-finder connects all apps having search options....it lets you search everything on your phone
This is a nice app and the main thing is that this is open source. I have tested this app and it shows quick results. It is very useful especially for newbies who face problems in searching for the files.
Nice feature.
Magnesium Launcher is a different kind of launcher that lets you search for almost anything on your device. The launcher features just two screens, a universal feed and an app drawer. Indexed items include a combination of items on your device, email messages, and posts from RSS feeds and social media accounts.

Thanks for the feedback. The features that can be purchased were split up so that the user only has to pay for what they want, so it's not exactly "expensive", so to speak.
I will be adding the pull down to refresh action, and a feed filter in the next release.
needs google calandar support so your events and reminders show on the feed.
and an option for 24 clock, but overall it looks great, will test for a while

Add tasks like Business Calendar from Google Tasks and the option to have the feed as the default page and you'll have my vote. I tired of having to have a widget here, and here, and here. I just want simplicity.

- it gets iconpack support
- it gets the possibility to hide icons from the app drawer

Exactly my feeling.
Magnesium offers a breath of fresh air in the contextual launcher arena - quite lightweight & offers additional features as compared to other contextual launchers like KISS Launcher (or Flow, Aviate, Blur, etc ...) - I really miss Slidescreen
Areas for improvement:
- customizable default screen (drawer or feed)
- searches should be decoupled from screens & should work the same regardless of the screen they're operated in, for example, searches in the app drawer should also go through contacts etc.
- inability to deselect web searches in the free version makes the search feature useless, as web searches swamp the results & are often prioritized as compared to device results
- the search engine should be configurable due to privacy concerns (most common ones should be added: for example duckduckgo, startpage, bing, google, yandex)
- the free/paid model should be revised - as mentioned by @SuperNès90, I have a feeling you're too bent on monetizing the app/features.
Still, keep up the good job! I'm curious how this launcher will mature.

specially the free/paid model should be revised. I think it tends to scare free users to even try your work.
