0.9.12

  1. Support Google Reader API and FreshRSS API (#536, @Ashinch)
  2. Use forward and backward transition animation (#540, @JunkFood02)
  3. Provide option to exclude additional information when exporting to OPML file (#567, @Ashinch)
  4. Provide option to gray out starred article items (#547, @MauroGuida)
  5. Fix "swipe to mark as read article" (#520, @aeghn)
  6. Fix empty group not round bottom corner issue (#529, @kid1412621)
  7. Fix refresh view after sync (#531, @kid1412621)
  8. Fix error caused by missing article title (#532, @kid1412621)
  9. Fix orphaned articles during sync in Fever API (#534, @Ashinch)
  10. Many UI improvements and bug fixes (@Ashinch, @JunkFood02)
  11. Translations updates (thanks to everyone who helped out)

Notes

  1. Thanks to the FreshRSS community, especially @Alkarex, for their help with this project.
  2. ReadYou is currently not fully compatible with Inoreader through the Google Reader API.
  3. ReadYou is currently unable to specify a new group when adding a subscription through the Google Reader API.
  4. When syncing with Google Reader API, ReadYou can fetch up to 10k articles per sync. For read articles, only those within the past month will be synced, while unread and starred articles will be fully synced. The sync speed primarily depends on the number of these articles. The initial sync may take some time, depends on the amount of data difference between the local and server. If you have a large number of feeds, it may still feel slow, I can try to optimize this if needed.
  5. We recommend that users who have participated in the testing re-sync or re-add their Google Reader API account after installing version 0.9.12.
  6. Let's look forward to more improvements in detail in the next version.

Notes

It's been quite a week for Read You! This release fixes up most of the rest of the major bugs from release 0.9.9, plus one that's been around for a long while.

My hope is that this will be a solid longer-term build, and we can take a break from releases for a bit while we wait for new improvements to cook from our wonderful community. As always, if you encounter a bug, please report it on Github!

Since some of you may have missed the big changes in 0.9.9, I'll include them again below.

0.9.9

  1. Fever API now properly syncs read/starred metadata across devices (#401) (#406) (@mbestavros)

  2. Add prompt for notification permission when relevant (#422) (@RafhaanShah)

  3. New feature: Swipe to mark read (#455) (@boun, @nvllz)

  4. New option: External link handling (#428) (@S-H-Y-A)

  5. Fetch favicons for feed items (#471) (@Ashinch, @kid1412621)

  6. Various internal refactorings and improvements (@Ashinch)

  7. Translations updates: Hungarian, Turkish, Serbian, German, Indonesian, Persian, and many others (thanks to everyone who helped out!)

0.9.10

0.9.10

  1. This version resolves the authentication issues with Fever API integration. See more changelog for version 0.9.9

Notes

  1. If you encounter synchronization and favicon issues, please try the ReadYou-0.9.10-5d1bdfb.apk file

0.9.9

3 months ago

NOTE: This is now marked as a pre-release due to a regression in the Fever API support!

As detailed in #507, filed just after launch, we've discovered that the release build contains a regression that breaks the app's Fever API support, with any login returning "Unauthorized". While we fix it, I've marked this as a pre-release. Don't use this build if you rely on the Fever API support yet!

Original changelog below:


  1. Fever API now properly syncs read/starred metadata across devices (#401) (#406) (@mbestavros)

  2. Add prompt for notification permission when relevant (#422) (@RafhaanShah)

  3. New feature: Swipe to mark read (#455) (@boun, @nvllz)

  4. New option: External link handling (#428) (@S-H-Y-A)

  5. Fetch favicons for feed items (#471) (@Ashinch, @kid1412621)

  6. Various internal refactorings and improvements (@Ashinch)

  7. Translations updates: Hungarian, Turkish, Serbian, German, Indonesian, Persian (thanks to everyone who helped out!)

Notes

  1. @Ashinch has appointed both @mbestavros and @JunkFood02 as additional Collaborators on Github:

"When I don't have enough free time, I deeply appreciate everyone coming together to contribute to this project. @mbestavros and @JunkFood02 will be added to the list of collaborators for the project, granting you some permissions to manage the project's release plans."

(Source: https://github.com/Ashinch/ReadYou/issues/495#issuecomment-1880344011)

To be absolutely clear: this does not mean that @Ashinch is stepping down from the project! It just means there are more people available to help create new releases. This will help a ton when @Ashinch is busy, and should reduce the time to ship code once it's been merged on Github.

  1. On that note: the 0.9.9 release is managed by @mbestavros! I love @Ashinch's work with ReadYou, and I'm grateful for the opportunity to help out with release management.

There will be a supplemental update in the near future for bug fixes and additional translations.
