- Fixed bug where read and starred statuses could stop syncing once more than 999 of them were queued (Feedbin, Feedly, NewsBlur, Reader API)

7.1.3
Changes since 7.1.2
- Overhauled Feedly syncing to prevent too-many-requests that could get users temporarily banned
- Fixed the Feedly mark-as-read backlog that could grow forever and re-send the same statuses
- Fixed Feedly folder and feed bugs — renaming a folder during a refresh could delete it, restoring a deleted folder restored nothing, a failed move could leave a feed in two folders, same-named folders collapsed into one, and right-to-left and untitled feed names were rewritten every sync
- Fixed bug where a Feedly feed the server no longer knows about could never be deleted
- Made Feedly sign-in and token refresh more robust — canceling on the consent page no longer shows an error, expired tokens refresh reliably, and removing the account always removes its tokens from the Keychain
- Used the published dates Feedly reports for articles, so a newly added feed’s archive is no longer dated all today
- Paused Reader API syncing when the server reports too many requests, honoring its retry time — and Inoreader additionally conserves its API quota by skipping status downloads when near its daily limit
- Sent queued article statuses for Inoreader on every status sync, so read and starred changes no longer wait out the quota throttle
- Fixed folder creation for Reader API accounts (FreshRSS, BazQux, The Old Reader) — new folders no longer disappear before a feed makes them real on the server
- Fixed Reader API article ID encoding that could make article downloads fail
- Used conditional GET for Reader API tag and subscription lists
- Posted real errors to the Error Log from Reader API status syncing, and kept an unread fetch failure from skipping the starred fetch
- Fixed bug where article titles, author names, and feed names from FreshRSS could show full-width versions of & < >
- Fixed NewsBlur folder syncing aborting on a missing folder, applied server-side feed updates, and preserved locally edited feed names
- Checked iCloud account status before syncing — feeds still refresh, without repeated error alerts, while iCloud is unavailable (such as when new Terms and Conditions need accepting, which now shows a clear message), and syncing resumes automatically when iCloud comes back
- Fixed bug where an iCloud feed moved between folders could disappear until the destination folder synced
- Fixed iCloud sync progress leaks that left the Refresh button and menu item wrongly disabled
- Fixed bugs in Feedbin, Feedly, NewsBlur, and Reader API accounts where a status refresh could briefly revert just-made read and starred changes
- Fixed bug where sending an article’s read status could delete its queued starred status
- Made statuses queued when the app was killed get sent at next launch
- Fixed bug where a feed could show a phantom unread count that came back after reading articles in other feeds
- Fixed bug where feeds could lose their names and display as Untitled
- Preserved custom feed titles from imported OPML across refreshes
- Repaired a feed’s stored ID when a sync service reports a different authoritative one
- Allowed accounts with the same username on different servers
- Showed the account name and type in sync error messages, and stopped showing sync decoding errors as theme import errors
- Dropped unhelpful recovery suggestions from error alerts that have no recovery options
- Made feed and sync requests wait for connectivity instead of failing when the network isn't ready, such as right after waking from sleep
- Stopped skipping feeds on the next refresh when the previous attempt failed with a connectivity error
- Stopped caching failed downloads, so retrying a feed right after a timeout tries the network instead of reporting the feed not found
- Fixed bug where a download callback that started a new download of the same URL was silently dropped
- Used a browser user-agent string for image and theme downloads
- Fixed bug where finishing a refresh could wrongly complete unrelated Activity Log activities, such as an in-progress feed subscribe
- Fixed feed discovery bugs caused by slashes in unquoted HTML attribute values
- Added a feed-finding special case for relay.fm/blog
- Simplified the Safari extension — it sends the page URL and NetNewsWire does all feed discovery, and the toolbar button works without reloading the page
- Supported Atom xml:base for resolving relative URLs
- Extracted the article body from feeds that put a full HTML page in an article
- Kept the current article in the timeline, and kept it selected, when the timeline updates and the sidebar selection hasn’t changed
- Fixed bug where feed-list changes could drop read articles from the timeline before it was time to drop them
- Updated smart feed unread counts on app activation and at the day change
- Skipped expanded folders when going to the next unread, matching iOS
- Removed punctuation and symbols when indexing search text, so words in curly quotes (for instance) are findable
- Cleared undo stacks on all windows after dragging feeds in the sidebar, so a stale undo can’t misfire
- Fixed sidebar cells laid out with a stale width
- Improved contrast for the star icon in the smart feeds list
- Fixed bug where an article updated during a refresh could reload the article view and reset the scroll position
- Stopped scrolling from carrying over to the next article when switching articles mid-scroll
- Fixed text selection in a footnote within a footnote
- Fixed mailto links that were already percent-encoded showing a literal %20 in the subject line
- Removed the system-generated Back and Forward commands from the article view contextual menu
- Preserved the aspect ratio of fixed-size iframes when the article width shrinks them
- Hid Mailchimp newsletter social icon walls and social-share icon blocks whose unsized SVG icons rendered at full width

- Passed any selected HTML to MarsEdit and Micro.blog instead of plain text only
- Restored full screen window state across launches
- Made sure the toolbar is showing when moving focus to the search field

- Fixed Handoff showing “No selection” after the source device was locked
- Switched to the current standard Sparkle framework for software updates — fixes the “Updater.app is damaged” error on macOS 27 betas and the “org.sparkle-project.Downloader” warning
7.1.3-7206
This was originally a TestFlight release. It was submitted to the App Store as the 7.1.3 release version on 22 Aug 2026.
Changes since 7.1.2:
- Overhauled Feedly syncing to prevent the request floods that could get users temporarily banned — syncing pauses when Feedly reports rate limiting, fetches only what changed since the last sync, caps article downloads per refresh, and directly refreshes a few feeds each sync to backfill articles missing from Feedly’s aggregate stream
- Fixed the Feedly mark-as-read backlog that could grow forever and re-send the same statuses — sent statuses are recorded as they succeed, and statuses Feedly can no longer accept (articles past its 31-day marker limit) are dropped
- Fixed Feedly folder and feed bugs — renaming a folder during a refresh could delete it, restoring a deleted folder restored nothing, a failed move could leave a feed in two folders, same-named folders collapsed into one, and right-to-left and untitled feed names were rewritten every sync
- Fixed bug where a Feedly feed the server no longer knows about could never be deleted
- Made Feedly sign-in and token refresh more robust — canceling on the consent page no longer shows an error, expired tokens refresh reliably, and removing the account always removes its tokens from the Keychain

- Fixed bug where an iCloud feed moved between folders could disappear until the destination folder synced
- Fixed iCloud sync progress leaks that left refresh wrongly showing as in progress

- Supported Atom xml:base for resolving relative URLs
- Extracted the article body from feeds that put a full HTML page in an article
- Kept the current article when adding a feed — showing the Add Feed sheet no longer clears the selection

- Removed punctuation and symbols when indexing search text, so words in curly quotes (for instance) are findable
- Scrolled the selected timeline item fully into view when it was only partially visible

- Made go-to-feed work when the feed is filtered out of the feeds list

- Kept absolutely positioned feed content from escaping the article body and overlapping the title
- Hid the Slashdot discussion iframe that showed a cookie-consent banner in the article view
- Made tapping an image that’s a link open the link instead of zooming the image — tapping a plain image still zooms it, and tapping the feed icon opens Feed Info
- Fixed blank screen after dismissing a full-screen image
- Fixed bug where a slow image download could open the image viewer after you’d left the article
- Stopped taps on an embedded video’s controls from opening the video URL in a browser

- Fixed bug where subscribing in a Feedly account using a home page URL sometimes failed to find the feed — when Feedly search comes up empty, the app now finds the feed itself and tries again
