A Few More Thoughts on NetNewsWire 2.0

NetNewsWire 2 for iPhone

I ‘ve been continuing to use the new NNW app and wanted to mention just a few more things that are included in the app, some of which we ‘ve been talking about a little in the comments on my first impressions post:

One small but very nice feature I ‘ve noticed is that when you tap to mark all items in an individual feed as read, you automatically slide back to the feeds listing view.  No need to tap a back button or do anything on your part.  A real timesaver.

The in-app browser is pretty good “ I have no complaints with it.

It ‘s easy to launch a feed item in Safari “ this is done via the same action button that ‘s used for sharing (via email and other methods)

Another small thing I ‘ve found I quite like is that within individual feeds, there are clear section dividers showing which day and date item were published.  I find this very helpful.

I still have mixed feelings on this new version, but I am finding it quite comfortable to work with.

    the new version of the app is terribly slow in my opinion – the former version was much faster – gets a little bit faster if I put my phone into flightmode
