Each version is better and more intuitive, but …

But I have a (I consider) very easy request for the app. You could add an action to the notification of an article to be able to SAVE the article without having to open it. This would be also very useful when you receive a notification in the Apple Watch. Thanks!!

No cross devices sync available

If you use the app in your iPhone and iPad, you won’t be able to sync your read articles between the devices nor the saved articles to be read later.

The rest of the app is ok.

Please, add cross sync between devices.

Excellent app

Well designed, structured and easy to use app with barely malfunction issues. I strongly recommend it.
