Simple Grdr - A Simple Google Reader Client for Android

Simple Grdr is, as its name suggests, a simple and user-friendly Google Reader client for Android. Besides simplicity, it also aims to be lightweight and responsive by utilising a lazy caching mechanism.

When you first run the application, you will be instructed to provide your Google ID and password. This can be done in the Preferences screen (press the Menu button and select Preferences).



Upon going back to the main screen, it will authenticate and load your Google Reader subscriptions.



On the susbcriptions screen, a number of actions can be performed:

1. Click on any tag or subscription to bring up the list of unread articles for that tag or subscription.
2. Click on Unread Articles to bring up the list of all unread articles.
3. Click on Starred Articles to bring up the list of articles that you have previously starred.
4. Long-press on any tag or subscription (or Starred Articles or Unread Articles) to bring up a context menu for that article list.
5. Press on the Menu button to bring up the menu items that will allow you to Refresh the subscription list or to go to the Preferences screen.



On the articles list screen:

1. Click on any article to bring up the article content.
2. Long-press on any article to bring up a context menu for that article.
3. Press on the Menu button for more options.



And finally, on the article content screen, the Menu button brings up a number of options for that article.
