Nextgen Reader is a popular Google reader app (used by yours truly) that has just received a very nice update in the Marketplace. Included in the update is full offline mode, edge swiping between stories, and speed improvements. The full changelog is below.
- New image caching feature i.e. full offline mode (app settings -> synchronization).
- Edge swiping in article view to navigate between articles or just tap on the left/right edges of screen as shown in video.
- Or swipe left/right using the article title at top.
- Tap on title in article view to open IE.
- Display current article position e.g. 7 of 50.
- System tray/clock now visible in article view.
- Faster loading of articles.
- Fixed white flickering in dark theme.
- Many bug fixes and enhancements.
This was already one of the best Google Reader apps and now it’s even better. The app costs $1.99 but that’s only if you want to donate to the dev since the free trial has the exact same functionality.
