lire for iPad (Full-text RSS)
Lire for iPad never offered Google Reader sync, so it will not be affected by the closure. In place of sync, lire offers users robust options for reading RSS feeds offline. Specifically, lire for iPad can cache the full text of the first 15 articles of each feed. Users who want more caching can buy unlimited full-text caching of all articles via in-app purchase. Since lire is caching full text feeds, the app is initially slow to load. Once feeds are loaded, lire for iPad’s presentation and interface make up for the wait.

Love RSS feeds? So do we!!
RSS feeds are a great way to follow updates on your favorite website. However, some sites set up their feeds to only show a portion of each entry, you know, to get you to click through to their actual website. We find that really annoying, and we're sure you do too.
Which is why, unlike other RSS feed readers, that either push you into a browser (in-app or otherwise), or depend on third party text parsing services and require you to be online to fetch the full text of one article at a time (which makes it no different from having to click/tap through to a website), in lire, you get your favorite RSS feeds as they should've been. You don't need to click through to any website (though, you do still have the option to, if you really wanted). It takes your favorite partial feeds, does it's magic, and converts them in to full feeds, so you don't have to click/tap on those annoying 'Read more' or 'Continue reading' links.
Once they're cached, you don't even need to be connected to read your full-text feeds.
- Use as a standalone feed reader, or sync with Feedly.
