The best RSS Reader!

I don't know what RSS reader most people use, but I have tried them all. Having done so, I always come back to NewsRob. It has the best UI and features. It is also the only Android-based RSS reader that truly syncs with the Google Reader. Here is a review featured today on Android Tapp:

NewsRob Android App Review by AndroidTapp.com | Android Tapp. Android App Reviews

If you know of a better RSS reader, please share.

I tried Newsrob and didn't like it. It didn't seem to stay in sync with Google at all.

Personally, I just use good old Google Reader on the web. It's simple to use with the phone and shows me my whole list of news articles.

hmmm, mine has always synced well with Google Reader. I've tried some of the others, but I always come back to NewsRob.

The problem I have with the mobile Google Reader is that it doesn't have a feature that allows the user to share via Twitter, Facebook or SMS message. NewsRob does.

I use NewsRob most of the time. I wish Google just manned up and made a quick Android reader app that would look a little cleaner like NewsRob.

NewsRob does the job if I'm just reading. I don't think its great if I want to star or share something. For those, I use GoogleReader on the web.

Yeah, that is a pain in the neck, but their desktop version doesn't appear to have those features either. My guess is they will come eventually and those features will be ported to the mobile version as well...

The desktop version of Google Reader does have a share feature. There is a choice that says "send to". If you select that it will list the places such as Twitter or Facebook where the user can share.

What don't you like about starring something or sharing in NewsRob?
