NewsFeed Launcher

About this app

NewsFeed Launcher is a full Android launcher with RSS feeds, offline reading, widgets, and extensive customization.
It is built for people who want more control over their home screen, their content, and the way they use their phone.
This is not a widget pack and not a recommendation-based news app. It is a launcher that puts your apps, feeds, and useful information in one place.

Follow your feeds — not algorithms
* Subscribe to RSS and Atom feeds
* Keep track of new videos from your YouTube subscriptions
* Keep your sources in one place
* Import feeds from OPML
No recommendation engine. No endless algorithmic stream. Just the sources you choose.

Read even when you are offline
Save articles and open them later without an internet connection.

Keep everything in one place
NewsFeed Launcher combines multiple functions in a single app:
* launcher
* feed reader
* offline reader
* widgets
This means less switching between apps and faster access to what matters to you.

Customize your home screen your way
* Use color themes
* Adjust the layout
* Use icon packs
* Build a simple setup or show more information at once
You decide what appears on your home screen and how it should look.

Built-in widgets
Integrated widgets include:
* clock
* weather
* calendar
* screen time
All of them are customizable and designed to fit the launcher layout.

Designed for everyday use
* one-hand optimized layout
* dark mode

Privacy-first approach
The app is designed to keep your data on your device and avoid unnecessary data collection.

Ratings and reviews

Excellent!! It works perfectly on my xperia1. If you miss Blinkfeed, this is the app. It can be added some extra design options similar to HTC Blinkfeed (clock, default home page option, different size pictures mode, etc..) but these should be optional in settings. Backround of application page can be changeable, like wallpaper or plain colors. Great work! Thank you...

Kinda meh... I purchased it because I thought it could be implemented into the s22 and s23 galaxy launchers as a news feed widget. I didn't realize it was it's own launcher. Which defeats the purpose of having it. But if your someone who wants your own launcher and newfeed then it's an okay app. Unfortunately I just wanted the newsfeed widget it showed in the pictures on google playstore which was incompatible with the s22 s23 galaxy launchers.

I'm genuinely shocked that this launcher was uploaded to the Play Store in 2017, yet hasn't caught on, and beyond that you're still updating it! I hope this does get more popular, because what it does, it does well :) This just some random (hopefully constructive) feedback: - No way of using the inbuilt icon change rules that certain sets have. - RSS is missing images from Google news. EDIT: Dev has implemented some suggestions. Will update score! And thank you! :) Very nice.
