In an April blog post, Feedly design cofounder Arthur Bodolec described his team’s watch development process and detailed some of their roadblocks: “It’s really difficult to design an application for a device which has breakthrough use cases, new interactions, but you have never tried,” he wrote. Use the Digital Crown to scroll through the first lines of the story. As you’d expect, the watch app lets you swipe through the eight best stories and Force Touch to save to read later, mark as read to avoid seeing them in your feed again, or tag them with descriptions for easy searching. The Feedly team waited to roll out their watch app until after the device shipped to get a better idea of what the watch was really good for, and how Feedly would translate to a screen on your wrist.
Now you can access your news feed on your wrist with Feedly for Apple Watch. After Google Reader died, Feedly became the go-to RSS reader for following all of your favorite websites.
