I'm about to go on vacation outside Europe where data roaming charges are sky rocket high. I intend to use a RSS reader that supports offline caching so I can just connect to wifi on a starbucks or whatever and sync my feeds and then reader them later.
I do use Google Reader but I have a ton of subscriptions. I always have 1000+ unread items 😀 So I don't want the iPhone RSS app to sync *all* my feeds for offline viewing - and I don't want to manually go through items while I'm connected to "download for offline viewing" on every one of them.
Is there an app that either:
1) Syncs with Google Reader but allows me to store content for offline viewing based on certain folders (or tags), ie. I can opt to only store "tech news"-related feeds (either based on folders or tags) and not the hundreds of blogs I'm subscribed to.
Or...
2) One that doesn't sync with Google Reader but where I manually have to add each feed (once) that I want to sync so each time I launch the app, it will store all feeds for offline viewing?
I don't mind paying for an app but I already paid for Reeder and that doesn't seem to fully cut it (unless I missed something) and I also tried out MobileRSS - both of them seems to sync *all* my Google Reader subscriptions including tons of blogs that I don't need to read on my vacation.
Thanks 😀
EDIT: So far the best option I've found is Byline (free ad-supported version available too). It allows for offline caching of just one Google Reader folder. So I could just add my feeds to a new "offline" folder and then it should work. Unfortunatley Byline cannot add new RSS feeds - it has to be done through Google Reader - but that shouldn't become an issue either.
