Help finding a good RSS Feed Reader!

Hello!

I'm looking for an RSS feed reader that supports https and user authentication!

I've tried RSS Bandit, but i keep getting authentication errors even though i'm using the right login information.

any suggestions?

Thanks in advance!

Google has an rss reader that syncs with your Google Reader account. What I like about this app is that you can read your feeds in your web browser or in Google Reader and everything is sync'd for you.

Google Reader - free from the android market.

Thanks ardchoille,


it turns out android doesn't support any kind of authentication other then basic http authentication! so there is no way for me to set it up even browsing to the feed and entering the account information in the popup doesn't send the login credentials properly!

if anyone comes across this in the future, rss demon supports feeds that require basic http auth, but not windows authentication or anything fancy like that.

Have you tried Beyond Pod? I'm not certain but I think it supports authenticated feeds

Have you considered using a service such as FreeMyFeed - Free Your Feed From Authentication

Also, it sounds like DoggCatcher may be able to handle authenticated feeds; I found that in under a minute on Google so I'd be willing to bet it wasn't the only feed reader out there that supports it. I might lose that bet, but I'd still make it.
