New iPhone app Unread makes your RSS feeds look good
Reading RSS feeds on your iPhone should be something you do in style.
A new app for iPhone users launched on Tuesday, giving RSS fans one of the better looking apps to stay up to date on the latest news.
The app, Unread -- An RSS Reader, launched with support for Feedbin, Feedly, and FeedWrangler. Without an account with one of those services, Unread won't be of much use to you.
Unread features the standards of RSS readers we've come to expect, including sharing with normal "read it later" services and social networks, along with background sync.
What's notable about Unread is the user-interface and gestures found in the app. Instead of using traditional buttons for navigation, almost all navigation in the app is done exclusively with gestures. Swipe down to refresh, swipe left to view the menu, or swipe right to go back a screen.
The interface is simple, using design queues from iOS 7 to bring a flat look to the news in your RSS feed, without unnecessary clutter.
Unread is currently available for $2.99, a launch special according to the App Store description.
