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.
Anyone want to create a scrollable news/rss widget to replace HTC News widget? Any other peeps out there want to see this? I don't want to use Sense and it's my favorite widget. Have tried to no avail to find something similar and nothing comes close. The other I was looking for was a replacement for Friend Stream, and Pure Messenger fit the bill perfectly. But haven't seen a suitable 'News' alternative.
I use Newsroom Pro.

Does it have a scrollable widget that integrates all the feeds not just one? I installed the free one earlier and immediately ditched it because it didn't do this. Maybe pro does?
I love Google's News and Weather app very much, I use it all day. I was wondering if anyone has a build of the news and weather app that has multi touch enabled? I hate how I can't zoom in on articles. I feel like there are any different builds of the news and weather app but they are all over the internet and i can't find the best one.
Hi,
Do you know any weather app that does not have running service?
Yes, weather forecast app that can pull data "manually" ...
No need periodic / interval update ...
Widget is not necessary either ...
Moved to Q&A BW, Fancy widget, and even the default news and weather app has this I believe
Most have these "features" and I don't really like that either. I've noticed that most of them will let you change the frequency that they pull info. Some down to 12 hours.
Fancy widget has lots of refresh options. One of them being to only refresh weather manually.
Thanks for all the suggestions. At the end, I ended up with (again) Beautiful Widget 1x1 (I already bought this when I use HTC Desire).
The reason that I want to find this kind of weather app, because I want to limit the number of running (background) services.
So, I replaced the Beautiful Widget Home widget with "simiClock" because it is simple, elegant and uses black background (save battery life).
simiClock has weather info as well ... But it does not have forecast.
That's why I was looking for weather app which can be activated (launched) when I press the simiClock weather.
But, it seems I cannot find one ... The one with update/interval can be controlled (I am not weather obsessive guy, so manual update is the best for me).
At the end, I am back with Beautiful widget weather 1x1 ... until I found a nice weather forecast app to launch from simiClock
I purchased the Weatherbug Elite. It has the options to turn off the background processing and only grab weather data when you run the app.
it's unfortunate, but i'm running into the same situation
i want to disable the back ground processing of the weather app that i like, but the app doesn't have such a feature/option
the app is supplied directly from The Weather Network, and it's very accurate, all the other apps that i've tried before are not so great
Try WeatherPro, best weather app imo
try Fancy widget... you'll love it! great app
Moxier World is by far the best I've found.
It updates either automatically or manually.
It also shows local time and weather in as many world locations as you need. It has 5 days forecast for each.

Try this out. It has an option to set update interval (or disable update entirely)
What is the best Weather App?

That doesn't show real time weather condition, only forecast for the whole day.
weatherpro app works great for me
Weatherbug, or weatherbug elite are good weather programs.
The Weather Channel.
My app preference is WeatherBug.... But honestly what I use more and more these days is a bookmark shortcut to search "weather" on Google if I'm just looking for basic info since Google's mobile weather site is pretty slick with the sliding bar interface to see how the weather forecast progresses with time.
