Google Reader update for Kinoma Play now available — speedier, more compatible

June 24th, 2010

One of the apps we use every day is Kinoma Play’s Google Reader app. It’s a fast, easy way to keep up with your favorite sites, and the full-text searching makes it incredibly easy to find posts on the exact topic you want no matter what feed or folder they’re in.

The reason we keep the word “Beta” painted on is that Google hasn’t quite settled on its “API”, which is what software developers like Kinoma use to access your Google Reader feeds. That means that they can change it anytime without notice.

That’s exactly what just happened, and so today we have a shiny new update of the Google Reader app for you!

Cool! Anything else?

Yes! In a word, speed. The app now opens instantly, and you can start using it even while it’s syncing with the Google Reader service.

How to update Kinoma Play’s Google Reader app

Go to Kinoma Play’s Home screen, then choose Get Apps > Google Reader and update.

Questions? Comments? Suggestions?

We’d love to hear them. Come talk to us in our community forum.
