Read the latest news from your favorite sites and blogs, even when you’re offline

Byline (Universal)

Removed from the App Store

PREVIOUSLY DECENT. When Google Reader shuts down, Byline is considering syncing via Feedly or Newsblur, but hasn't yet made any decisions. What sets Byline apart from other apps is its ability to cache all or some of your feeds for offline reading. Offline reading is a very useful feature, but Byline’s implementation slows the entire app down, which is not ideal. More, the ads in the free version are very distracting.

What is it about?

Read the latest news from your favorite sites and blogs, even when you’re offline. Simply use your free Feedly account to subscribe to websites you’d like to keep track of. Byline will automatically stay in sync and bring you new content, putting thousands of RSS and Atom feeds at your fingertips. Even when you have no internet connection (such as on the subway) Byline’s offline browsing feature gives you instant access to complete web pages.
