That's what I expected. Just checking before I start experimenting.

What do you mean?
Nothing bad would happen, i.e. they wouldn't interfere with each other, If
you're following the same feed with both apps though, articles you read
with one app would still show up in the other as unread.

I keep coming back to Feeddler. I try other options and nothing
works as well for me. Here's another interesting scenario I've been
playing with lately.
One of the things that I like about Feeddler is that it parses its
articles through the Instapaper API. What this means is that when
you open an article, a lot of the clutter you see on web pages is
simply eliminated, making it easy to get to the message body.
However, I frequent a forum for IT professionals here in New
Zealand, and the Instapaper API was stripping some of the important
links to participate in the forum. With Feeddler, you can force
specific feeds not to parse content through the Instapaper API and
just open them with the Safari engine. It really is an awesome app.

This is a bit of a late reply. However, for those wanting to
know, one of the key differences in the way Feeddler and Lire work
is with regard to caching. Lire caches full text of RSS articles.
Feeddler does not.
I have moved back to primarily using Feeddler because of its
integration with web-based services such as TheOldreader. I am
not completely satisfied with the way Feeddler works with
Theoldreader, but I do prefer the ability to access my feeds from
a browser.
I became extremely unhappy with the way Lire was working on my
iPhone 5. It was extremely sluggish when updating and caching to
the point where it was unusable. Even after articles were cached,
it would sometimes take 30 seconds or so to open a folder/article.
However, after following a tip posted by someone here, I removed
and reinstalled Lire and most of that sluggishness has been
corrected!
I really love the way Lire works with VoiceOver. I also love the
way Feeddler works with agregators. And Feeddler is not too bad
with VoiceOver either.
I will probably continue to be slightly undecided.

Hello, Jonathan, and thank you for writing.
I too have noticed that it can take a while for multiple feeds to
be
retrieved via Lire. Actually, I think it's the caching that
takes the
most time; the refreshing happens pretty quickly for me. I realize
that the characterization of "pretty quickly" is relative and
subjective. Would you say that the refresh and cache operations
are
considerably faster with Feeddler?
Thank you for your help.

Hi Craig, I agree. The developer of the Lire app is incredible,
and what you
hear with VoiceOver can be customised in great detail.
There are two reasons why I continue to use Feeddler primarily.
First, I find Lire takes a very long time to retrieve new
content, and I
have a large number of feeds.
Second, Feeddler syncs with a bunch of cloud-based services. It
formerly
used Google Reader, and I had apps on my Mac and PC that would
also sync
with it. So if I read an article on one device, it would be
marked as read
on all of them. I've not yet found apps for Mac and Windows that
support any
of the new services Feeddler is supporting, but things are still
shaking
down after the Google Reader shut-down so I'm sure that will all
sort itself
out in time.

Hello, everyone.
I am wondering how Feeddler compares with Lire in terms of
features.
I'm very pleased wit Lire, but being new to the world of iOS RSS
readers, I'm wondering what features Feedler may have that Lire
lacks.
I heartily recommend Lire. Its developer, Kunal Sood, is very
responsive to the needs of VoiceOver users. I don't know of a
single
function that isn't accessible on this ap.
Thank you for your help.
