Feedly is a news aggregator application for various web browsers and mobile devices running iOS and Android. It is also available as a cloud-based service. It compiles news feeds from a variety of online sources for the user to customize and share with others. Feedly was first released by DevHD in 2008.

History

DevHD's first project, Streets, which aggregates updates from a variety of online sources is the basis of Feedly. Originally called Feeddo, Feedly was first released as a web extension before moving onto mobile platforms. [4]

On March 15, 2013, Feedly announced 500,000 new users in 48 hours due to the closure announcement of Google Reader. [5] By April 2, 2013, the total number of new users was up to 3 million. [6] At the end of May 2013, the total user number was up to 12 million. [7] In 2018, Feedly had 14 million registered users. [8]

Denial of service attacks

On June 11–13, 2014, Feedly suffered denial-of-service attacks that prevented users from accessing their information. The attackers demanded ransom from Feedly, which the company refused to pay. [9] [10] [11]

Mobile app

The Feedly mobile application is available for iOS and Android devices. [12] All versions of the app run on Streets (DevHD's other project), which allows for the application to run on the same code for all devices. [12] Like its web counterpart, the mobile application employs a interface that imitates a magazine spread. However, unlike the browser extension, the Feedly app cannot load an entire article. Instead, it will present a summary and a link to the actual article. [13] The Feedly app does not support offline mode but third-party apps offer the service.
