        Hi.
        I love the idea of this app.
        I've tried to add http://irishpost.co.uk/feed and irishpost.co.uk/feed (and a few others). Nothing seems to work. :question_mark:

        headline

          I've also tried these links (they and the link from post #1) all work in QuiteRSS but not in the headline app.

            headline is now on v. 1.0.4 -- I still can't load the 3 feeds. 😕

              I think the best place to comment on this is in the application git, by opening an issue. 😉

              P.S. It may already be open, check beforehand.

                @bolly Hi. I see the headline app has had multiple version updates very recently. I'll try to add the feeds again. I don't really want to have to create a GitHub account.

                  The application is very new, give it time.

                    @bolly Fair enough. 🙂
