Feeds (Version 0.4.1)
Since the last release, Feeds brushed up its language skills and now contains four additional translations. This means you can already enjoy Feeds in a total of seven languages. Many thanks go out to the translators, who are:
Antonio Soler (Spanish)
Kyosuke Takayama (Japanese)
Fabio Mosetti (Italian)
Jerry Lee (Traditional Chinese)
Jay Sun (Chinese)
I also fixed a few things here and there and added a simplistic ‘Star’ button, so you can easily keep track of those special entries that you want to read again on a bigger screen free of finger smudges. This is probably going to be the last update for the next few weeks though, as next week my endterms begin. Damnit, Chloe.
Feeds (Version 0.3.8)
Some people seemed to have issues with Feeds 0.3.6, causing the application not to synchronize at all anymore. I was able to trace back these problems to the altered login function and fixed it in the new release 0.3.8. It should be available on your Installer.app soon. If Feeds still doesn’t work for you, please let me know.
For those who can’t wait and don’t fear scp, I uploaded the archive to my server.
Update 05/15/2008: If it’s not working for you, please let me know:
- What language your iPhone is set to
- Whether it works when you set your iPhone to English
Update 05/16/2008: Feed 0.4.0 is out now.
Feeds (Version 0.3.6)
Due to version 0.3 being delayed by a bug and my misbehaving iPod Touch (magically setting back the date and therefore not accepting newer certificates anymore), Feeds 0.3.6 was released instead. It added three often requested features:
- You can now comfortably browse through all of a feed’s entries by pressing the previous / next buttons.
- Marking all of a feed’s entries as read now is as easy as tapping the “Read all”-button
- The entry list now sports nice summaries which make it a lot more comfortable to skim through a blog
Feeds (Version 0.3)
Update: The release will be delayed a little. Sorry for that 
Three weeks and over 15,000 downloads after its initial public release, it is time for Feeds 0.3! It will be available through the ModMyiFone.com repository in the next few hours days. Although it was planned as a bug fix release, one or two new features still managed to sneak their way in:
Changelist
- Feeds now contains language files for Chinese (thanks to Jay Sun!) and German. If you would like to use the application in your native language and have the impression that you can do better than Babelfish at providing the necessary translations, please contact me.
- Introduced the category view that allows you to filter your feeds by category and to hide items you’ve already read.
- You can manually adjust the font size and padding of table cells to match the strength of your eyes and your fingers’ clumsiness. In the current version a restart is necessary for the changes to take full effect.
- I added a link to the original article in the built-in entry browser. Neither does it look very elegant nor is it nice to navigate, but being an often requested feature, I added it nonetheless. Why do some people only aggregate summaries, anyway?
- A lot of bug fixes: people who are subscribed to a vast number of blogs should no longer experience crashes upon synchronizing; canceled subscriptions don’t haunt you any longer; feeds with GET parameters in the URL work properly; …
Let me know what you think of the new version and, as usual, post bug reports to the project page.
Feeds now available through ModMyiFone.com repository
Yesterday, Kyle from ModMyiFone.com contacted me and offered me to host my iPhone app Feeds for me. This means that you won’t have to add any custom sources to your Installer.app any more in order to download Feeds. I will still keep my old repository but will only use it for test builds, so you might want to stay away from it 
Thanks also to Fabiano, who offered me to put my app on iSpazio and the over 1′000 people who’ve already installed my application.
To keep track of bugs and feature requests, I also set up a project page on Google Code, so it would be great if you could post them there.
