Btw yes, huge fan of Call of Duty series. Looking forward to Xbox One release. 🙂

Other improvements

Post to “Facebook Page”.
Updated buffer integration (can also be selected as favorite tool) .
New keyboard shortcuts – C: Clip to OneNote, B: Buffer.
Change default mobilizer directly from drop down menu.
Improved error handling/messages and bug fixes.

In addition, to celebrate Diwali, we’ve dropped price from $2.99 to $1.49 for the next 24 hours (only on Windows store). Since, it’s universal already, so buying the Windows version gives you full access to the Windows Phone app as well.

Nextgen Reader update for Windows Phone 8.1 (universal!)

Categories: Feedly, Nextgen Reader, Windows Phone, WP8.1

Comments: 15

Today we’re launching a major update (v6) for Nextgen Reader. It’s now faster and universal. That is Nextgen Reader now shares the same identity across the Windows Phone Store and the Windows Store, therefore you can login/purchase once and run on multiple devices. We’re also very happy to announce that you can now own Nextgen Reader on Desktop, Tablet, and Windows Phone device for just $2.99 once!

All of your accounts data is roamed securely using Windows Credential Locker. In case you’re not using the Windows 8 app already, you’ll be prompted again for login at start. Please find the screenshots and change-log below:

new tiles

• Brand new logo for universal app.
• Login/purchase once and run on multiple devices (Windows or Windows Phone).
• New live tiles with smaller text size for headlines.
• Easily configure individual tiles i.e. display only unread count, headlines or images.
• Support for large screen devices (Lumia 1520).
• Share articles via OS e.g. save to reading list app.
• Discover new feeds or browse categories via ‘add feeds’ hub.
• Optimized for low memory devices (Lumia 520).
• Redesigned login page and fixed login errors.
• Improved OneNote login (if you use 2-factor authentication).
• Many other changes and improvements.
• Known issue: Save image to phone is not supported in this release (planned).

We’re excited about the new update, and we hope you enjoy it as well. As always, please share your thoughts with us on Twitter/Facebook or just leave a comment below. Happy Reading!

Introducing Buffer and The 5.2 update for Windows Phone 8

Categories: Buffer, Feedly, Nextgen Reader, Windows Phone, WP8

Comments: 13

We here at Next Matters are big fans of Buffer. It is simply a great way to share articles on your social media channels. Here’s a couple of our favorite reasons:

Found a bunch of interesting stories in Nextgen Reader but didn’t really like sharing all at the same time.
Or simply wish you could post an article at particular time on Twitter or Facebook?

Using Buffer, you can simply add links to your queue or schedule them individually. We recommed you head over to bufferapp.com now and find out more about it’s features.

Configuring, adding and scheduling updates is straightforward in Nextgen Reader. Just hit the share button and select “Buffer”. We even added a special ability to send updates to buffer from Internet Explorer. Just open nextmatters.com/addtobuffer on your WP8 device and follow the simple steps.

Find the screenshots below:

Other improvements in 5.2 update

We’ve also added HTTPS support in latest update, as some of you’re not able to sync articles in corporate networks due to proxy issues.Please go to app settings -> synchronization and turn on “HTTPS”. Kudos to Feedly team for making HTTPS free. 🙂
Now you can easily post links to any of your Tumblr blogs via Nextgen Reader. Tap share and select “Post to Tumblr”.
Last but not least, you can open YouTube videos directly in MetroTube from Nextgen Reader (please see the screenshot below).

We hope you enjoy the update.

Thanks a lot!

P.S. We’re adding Buffer support to Windows 8 version in next update (hopefully around Windows 8.1 launch).

The amazing five.one update for WP8 (v5.1)

Categories: Feedly, Nextgen Reader, ngreader, WP8

Fast, clean and beautiful reading is an amazing experience. That’s what Nextgen Reader is for, and today we’re bringing a number of nice enhancements, including a new theme and re-designed article view to make it even better. Let’s take a look.

New article view

Now you can customize font-style, size and text-alignment for a more personalized reading experience. Also, you can jump to “view settings” directly from the app bar menu. Nextgen Reader now preloads your next/previous story (even the full article) for faster reading, so you never have to wait again. In-addition to above improvements, we also added a new “slate theme”. It is beautiful and comfortable for long reading. Just give it a try.

Other improvements

We hear you feedback. Now you can set open method per feed (i.e. summary or full article) on WP8 just like Windows 8 version. We also fixed issues around it like automatically loading summary when application is unable to download full article or if there is no internet connection. These improvements will also be pushed to Windows 8 app in next update (and much more).

Nextgen Reader now remembers your list style for individual feeds or category (e.g. headline or headline + images). This is great, just like the Feedly app on iOS. Last, but not least we’ve also fixed several other issues (e.g. displaying image captions correctly) and worked hard to make sure that the performance is absolutely great.

Welcome to the amazing experience of Reading!

As always, we love your feedback. Please vote for your favorite ideas or suggestions here (for WP8): http://ngreaderwp.uservoice.com/

P.S. We’re very excited about the platform/API improvements in Windows 8.1. More on that soon!
