according to the 'wake device' preference.

do you know why the 'wake device' option isnt saving? at default it is off, and i switch to on, but no matter what, it never stays on after i leave the preferences page. it is supposed to stay on right?

please look into this. I would love this app if it told me when there is something new to read without me opening the app

it seems to be the older one of both, but both have the same version and in most a same look.
very strange.
is there any comment in your (hobbyist) app that the original source code is in fact palms source code?

yup - that will be the version where I was testing the web distribution. It got hung up in the publishing process - but is obviously out now.

they're both the same app at slightly different stages.

both give credit to palm in the credits page, and in the description of the app.

Feeds is a Paid For app from the same people who brought us Twee, nothing to do with Hobbyist Software.

would it be possible to get a link to files in enclosure tags? It would be perfect for daily podcast feeds. Thanks.

Is there a way to delete or hide feeds that are already read? Thanks,
