Hello!
It seems simple(like my apps :D), nice and useful(not for me because I
don't really follow websites) except that the RSS addresses must be
somehow hard coded.

P.S.:Is it possible to edit rss-reader.json with a text editor from
KaiOS?

I think KaiOs has no text-editor.


 except that the RSS addresses must be 
somehow hard coded. 

Yes in the json file I use it as a verry simple db, because is a pain to fill out forms with T9 for example urls.

Sorry for silly question but I need which line of coding to edit in rss-reader.json? either *https://rss-source-url/* or both *https://rss-source-url/* and *channel name*??

The first one is necessary and the second one can be anything. however
you should choose a appropriate name for it so that you recognize this
channel from the others. e.g. If your url is BBC's RSS, channel name
might be BBC or something.

put this in your json file:

"channel":"yahoo"
},

{
"limit":"100",
"channel":"Times"
}

]


but the india time is not up-to-date

Please wait, downloading rss feeds. Then white screen. Pressing -- key got black screen with a cursor and a blue line on lower edge and a "back" in the left lower corner if the cursor is near the blue line.

Yes, the file is on the SD card.

Nice app perry. It works well. I took a look at your code and it wasn't hard to adjust it to open most article links in outline.com. This keeps data usage down, speeds up loading and increases readability. Unfortunately outline.com doesn't work with all websites, such as The New Your Times, but perhaps you can find a way around that.

now the user can decide whether to use the app as an rss reader or podcast downloader or to use both functions. should the app become unmanageable with the extended functionalities, I will separate the app.
