Google Reader for Android

Google has released an official app for Google Reader for Android phones. We have been waiting for this for years and it has finally arrived. The free app supports all the basic features like subscribing to a feed, sharing, liking, starring, friends, etc. Multiple accounts are also supported by the app. The app can be downloaded from the market.

Reading articles on Google Reader

Send item via third party apps

Highlights

  • Neat interface without ads. Rendering is quite good as well.
  • Multiple accounts.
  • Synced preferences.
  • Search.
  • Ease of sharing. The article can be shared via email, facebook, twitter, etc.

Lowlights

  • Articles can not be synced to your device for offline reading.

I have been using NewsRob to read my Google Reader articles on mobile. I will continue to use that till Google adds support for offline reading.
