Make your mark.
With Newsie’s marking menu, marking a news item as read or starred is just
a thumb twitch away. Slide an item in the news listing to the right to mark
it with one seamless gesture. You don’t even have to leave the news listing.
Remembers where you are.
Newsie remembers how far you’ve scrolled in your news list, so you don’t
waste time having to search for where you left off, just in case someone
calls or you have to exit the app.
Thoughtfully designed emailing.
Newsie thoughtfully gives you an extra bit of blank space at the top
of the email message, so you can easily insert your own comments without
unnecessary finger gymnastics. It’s little refinements like these that
make Newsie a joy to use.
Bring the Web with you.
When you “star” an item, Newsie automatically
saves the news item’s original web page so you can
read it later. Newsie shows a paperclip for news items that
have been saved. Tap on it to see the saved page,
even if you’re in airplane mode.
Focus on your content.
Sometimes you just want to browse full screen to see as much information
at once, or see an image in its full glory. With Newsie, full-screen
browsing is just a touch away. You can even have Newsie switch to
full-screen browsing for you automatically.
Newsie loves Twitter.
Newsie works with Tweetie and Twitterrific, letting you tweet news
items comfortably from apps tuned for comfortable tweeting. When you
come back, you won’t miss a beat as Newsie remembers exactly where you
left off.
Stay on target.
Get to your news quickly, and without a lot of fumbling
around. Find your feeds quickly, as well as
folders that you created in Google Reader. Navigate to feeds & folders using
the incorporated index, minimizing scrolling.
Load only the news you want.
Other news feed apps make you wait until they've finished “syncing”
before you can read the news you’re really interested in.
What you really want is to read news from a
specific feed without waiting for other news to download first.
Just set a filter—instant gratification!
Line ’em up, knock ’em down.
Perhaps you’re in an elevator and only have a minute or two to hunt
for something worth reading. Perhaps you”re on your back porch swing
with all the time in the world to catch up with the news. Newsie enables
both workflows: hunt for news and “star” them for later reading, then
switch to the “starred” view to read what you’ve gathered.
