I would like to suggest you to make more size options for the widget. (i know it is "minimal", but a option is always nice) I like the app! Nice job!

Love this app, but it's responsible for a ridiculous 35% of my phone's power consumption! 2 feeds updating every 4 hours, CM7. Optimise please!

Very neat and useful news Google reader

First off, I would like to thank you "Joaquim Vergès" for adding Google Reader feature to the free version in exchange of the Ads. Fair enough, this gives the complete impression on the app, by which I'm very delighted to use for reading my news. However, other widget options with scrollable feature can make the pop-up feature of this app "really standing out". I find it easier to navigate and push the app's pop-up feature forward. BTW, EA+ also have the pop-up feature so this is not the only option.

Annoying crap. Lose your feeds every second day. Don't waste your time on this.

Great widget. One small niggle though... in the 2x1 configuration, the posts are sometimes too large for the background.

Amazing app! Definitely worth downloading. Would be nice with a scroll bar though

spoke too soon with my post below - the scrolling is fine, you just need to scroll the TITLE and not the actual article itself and it works fine. dont know if that was intentional or not. definitely deserves 5 stars now, but please do add faster cycle! thanks
