I find that highly appealing because it saves me the effort of opening a new tab before sharing a post on Twitter.Īnd last but not least Feedly has added a new way to prioritize feeds.

Speaking of sharing, the Feedly apps have an option in the settings menu where you can enter your bitly, Twitter, Pocket, and other credentials. There is also an improved menu for sharing that adds Google+. They’ve added a title-only view to the Feedly apps, thus enabling me to fit more content on to a single screen. I’m not so interested in discovery, but Feedly has added other features which interest even me. This move isn’t intended to attract Google Reader users (more on this later). Speaking as a former user of Google Reader, my reaction to this news can be summed up as 'whatever', but that doesn’t matter. It builds on and learns from the searches of all Feedly users so that the 'more you use Feedly to search, categorize and follow your favorite feeds, the better our search and discovery will become'. According to their blog, Feedly’s new search algorithm 'is amazingly fast, and brings over 50 million feeds to your fingertips'. I’m not sure I see the differences (not in the Android app, anyway) but that’s not all that Feedly is announcing today.įeedly is also boasting that they’ve improved their discovery and recommendation engine. They’ve released new apps for Android and iOS that have slight changes to the prettified layout as well as what Feedly says is a faster and more intuitive vertical transition and better control over the list, magazine and mosaic views.

In addition to releasing a new browser plug-in last week, today Feedly announced a major redesign of their mobile apps. This service has added over 3 million users in 19 days (500k in the first 48 hours), setting a new record with over 7 million users. It’s been not quite 3 weeks since Google announced the end of Google Reader, and many are already crowning Feedly as the heir apparent.
