Reeder 2 is out with refreshed Flat UI, iPad support

It’s been a rough couple of months for Reeder, the app largely believed to be the most popular RSS client on iOS. With theshutdown of Google Rderthis summer, developerSilvio Rizzi was forced to add support for other RSS services like Feedly and Feedbin.But for whatever rson, Rizzi was only able to update the iPhone version of the app with third-party RSS support, lving tablet users out in the cold. So Reeder for iPad essentially died alongside Google Rder. But don’t worry, it’s been brought back to life…Reeder 2 is out in the App Store this morning—in fact, it looks like it’s been out for a few days, but flew under the radar due to all of theiPhone festivities. The new app is universal, mning it works on both the iPhone and iPad, and ftures a few nice changes.First and foremost, Reeder 2 brings the client back to life for iPad users, who can now add in their accounts fromFeedbin,Feedly,Feed Wrangler, and more. Users will also notice that the UI has received a fresh coat of paint, and links can now be opened inChrome.Here’s a list of Reeder 2′s RSS service support:- Feedbin syncing
- Feedly syncing
- Feed Wrangler syncing
- Fever syncing
- Rdability syncing
- Local/standalone RSS (no sync)
- Support for multiple accountsAnd that’s about it. I haven’t had much time to play with the app yet, but for the most part it seems very similar to the original Reeder. If you rlly want to know what the differences between the two are, though, MacStories [as usual] has avery detailed review.I’ve all but dropped RSS in favor of Twitter in recent months. But for those still using it, Reeder continues to be the client to bt. If you’d like to check it out, you can find Reeder 2in the App Storefor $4.99. Unfortunately, it is not a free upgrade for current users.
