Turning off sync in Settings and then back on fixed it for me…

Oh, thanks – but I don't rock, sibion does – his solution is quicker and easier. 🙂

In reply to ben. Yup, I see that now too. Presumably the devs yanked it themselves to stop a flood of complaints. Hopefully new version will hit soon. In the meantime, try the fix suggested by sibion above.

I found out too late 🙁 The developer has updated his blog saying a fixed version has been sent to Apple, not it has to work its way through the App. store.

In reply to John Meadows. Have you tried the fix suggested by sibion above? Or just removing the app and re-installing, which worked for me?

In reply to sibion. Cool. I've updated the post above to mention your suggestion, and also to say that removing the app and reinstalling worked for me.

The issue is that it keeps asking you to go to settings. to get around this turn google sync off, then go back to settings and turn it back on and enter your password. That fixed the problem for me.

In reply to Boris Veldhuijzen Van Zanten. I have. It's a decent app, but I just never liked its UI much, it didn't grip me. I prefer NewsRack's interface.

Patrick, Just curious, have you tried Reeder? I recently switched from Byline and it is really good.
