Firstly, merry Christmas to all the users of EasyRSS! This release is a Christmas gift. Have fun!

The only new feature in 0.3.1 is the feature of "mark as unread", which means you can mark an item as unread after long click on that item, and choose "mark as unread" on popup menu.

And some bugs were fixed.

A critical bug of EasyRSS, that may cause memory leak in app was found. The bug had been existed since version 0.1.*, and now, it was fixed.

Some other smaller bugs were fixed as well, like optimizations in syncing and scrolling.

Today, EasyRSS 0.3.0 is released. I'm quite excited to release this version.

The most important feature of this release is that the app supports "swipe turning back", which means you can turn back to the last screen by a simple swipe.

It costs much time to add this feature, for the rendering speed in Android is really low, and I have to optimize.

Finally, the work is done. Simple and elegant user interaction. I love it.

Four changes of EasyRSS are made in 0.2.8,

- Fix encoding bugs on Meizu phones.   (Be sure that this bugfix will be valid only for the newer-loaded items) - Larger font support. - Volume key navigation between items. - Item syncing optimization.

The version of EasyRSS on Amazon is 0.1.12, which is a very old version, with some small bugs, and what's more, since the official Google Reader is updated, 0.1.12 is the version with outdated features!

I've already submitted a new version of EasyRSS (0.2.2), but days passed, the new version is still under review. I'm receiving users' complaints about the bugs, but these bugs have been fixed weeks ago!

I'm quite sure that the new version of the app is more robust and elegant than the old one. You even do not need to review it!

EasyRSS is my first Android app. Since the first try always challenges the most, I decided to make it well. The biggest motivation behind this work is that I want to use it in my daily life. Now, EasyRSS has already became the most frequently used app in my mobile. It's so much pleasant when I start my own app. I love this kind of feelings.

I'm not going to sell this app (no ads in it as well) - since Google Reader is free, I think that the app should be free as well. Being a royal user myself, I'm always work hard to improve the user experience of the app. It will not be a Google Reader app with most features, but will be the most interesting and elegant one. I'm always thinking about to make it simple. Just like its name, EasyRSS. I love simple things.

之前在使用 NewsRob。确实很不错，但是界面不美观，有些写着支持的功能不支持（如 Instapaper）。

前天发现了一个名叫 EasyRss 的客户端，是复旦的一个学生写的（sunzheng.tumblr.com），简洁明快，功能不错，很好用。

EasyRSS used HtmlCleaner as its HTML parser.

One of the greatest feature of EasyRSS is that it can download items (as well as the images in them), keeping news in the reader up-to-date.

To make syncing of items fast and robust, the process of syncing has been adjusted for many times. And now, a brand new feature is added - users can choose whether to sync the states of items immediately after the states are changed. The feature is turned off by default, and it can be turned on by changing corresponding setting.

This feature is introduced due to this reason - sometimes, the users of EasyRSS may need to share the items with their friends, and if the syncing of reading states is processed together with item syncing, too many items may be shared almost at the same time, which may not be agree with the expectation of some users. The feature is specially designed by these users.
