RSS Menu for Android

Edit #2 - The 3.1 update restroed the ability to run in the background, and also to disable the Collection folders, which are totally redundant for my uses. The app is again as useful as before. Might not be perfect, but it is the best I've found for how I want to access my feeds. Kudos to the developer for bringing back the prior behavior so quickly! Edit - Will revisit this review after the application update promised in the developer's response is released. Original review - I've been using RSS Menu for years, but do not like the new release, I much prefer the previous background menu. The new app does not work well for how I use my computer. I'd like to revert to version 2.7.4. I tried restoring the old app from backup, but after doing so, RSS Menu does not appear in the menu bar though it is shown to be running. So apparently the new version does something outside the app and its preference file that breaks the previous version. Tried to contact the developer, but the email form on his website never sends, and eventually just times out.

Fast response from the developer and the issue of it crashing on start up in catalina is now fixed with 3.0.1 only problem now is that the app crashes when you select "mark all read"

I've been using RSS Menu since its inception. I love the simple access in the Menu Bar without cluttering up my Dock, but with version 3.0 they are forcing it to be standard app with a Dock icon and window yuo can't get rid of. They've also included some collection folders you can't remove which just clutters up my feeds. Time to look for an alternative.

You can't increase the font size in the drop down menu that shows the rss feed stories. I want tobe able to take a quick glance, to decide what to look at . Well at least it was only a $1.99 lesson.

It somewtimes lags a little but I'm on a beta OS and other things are lagging too.
