Please take a few minutes to read about how FK Construction Funding teamed up with Corporate Capital Direct, LLC to help provide capital to the construction industry following the devastating Hurricane Harvey and Hurricane Irma.
Feedly is the best way to ingest the content you need for work by putting your favorite feeds in an organized newsfeed. Over the past few weeks we have rethought the way you can clean up and reorganize your feedly. I worked with the feedly team to design two different concepts and would love to hear your feedback to help us build the best organized experience possible!
In a recent survey with 5,000 participants, many of you showed us that you like to reorganize your feedly for two main reasons:
Spring cleaning
Every once in a while you need to clean up your feedly to make sure you only follow the feeds that interest you. This involves removing inactive feeds (the ones that have not published in months), removing the feeds you don’t read anymore, and promoting articles to “must-read” publications, so you don’t miss a story.
Reorganization
There are other times when you feel like reorganizing parts or all of your feedly. Maybe you have new interests or you want to split a topic into a few more specific topics, such as splitting your Marketing Collection into SEO and Digital Marketing Collections. All of this involves renaming Collections, moving them around and moving feeds from one Collection to another.
After a few weeks of design work with these two use cases in mind, we came up with two design directions:
The main idea behind this concept is that everything is available in one page with just the crucial information you need to optimize your feedly. Your collections are listed on the right and the selected Collection’s feeds appear at the center of the page. This enables you to move from Collection to Collection without switching context.
You can try out this concept on InVision: https://invis.io/D567GADVZ
View important information at a glance
With this first concept we are showing you the essential information you need when you need it, no less, no more. For instance, when looking at a Collection you will see the feeds that are Must Read and those which are inactive. It’s just enough information for you to take action with no clutter.
Because your Collections are listed on the right side, you can easily navigate from one to the other rapidly.
Take the main actions in one click
Most actions are one click away or one drag away. Hit the cross or the star icon to remove a feed from a Collection or mark a feed as must read, respectively (see below for examples). Use drag and drop gestures to move a feed to the Collection it should belong to and re-order your Collections.

Reordering a Collection
This second concept takes advantage of data tables and the feedly slider. The main page displays all of your Collections. After you select a Collection we use the feedly slider to show all of the feeds it contains.
This concept focuses on showing you as much information as possible in a consistent way so you can easily decide what action to take on each item.

Concept 2: feed list
See all the data you need
Both the Collection list page and the feed list slider are tables displaying all the information you need to quickly undestand where you should take action. Quickly see which Collections have the most inactive feeds and which feeds last posted a long time ago.

Use a consistent popup to edit your feeds
Whether you want to edit the name of a feeds, mark it as read, remove it from a Collection, move to a different one or add it to multiple Collections, a consistent dropdown menu will be there to accomplish all these tasks across the application.

Both of these concepts are available on InVision (here and there). There are a few things you can interact with so you can get a feel for them. Have a look and let us know about what works and what doesn’t. Feel free to leave comments here or within the InVision prototypes.
We are looking forward to listening to your feedback!
Antoine and the feedly Team.
Today, we’re excited to bring you feedly Login, a new way to add a dedicated feedly login to your feedly newsfeed.
This means that you have the freedom to keep your newsfeed separate from your social logins, if you prefer to, and get even more control over your privacy. It is an optional feature: If you are happy with your existing login, you can ignore this post and continue to use your existing login without making any changes.
Adding a feedly Login to your existing login options is easy:
Once you have added a feedly Login to your account, you may choose to remove the previously used social logins. Or you could choose to keep multiple logins for your newsfeed.
You can also use feedly Login on your phone or tablet. To do that, please upgrade to the latest versions feedly for iOS and feedly for Android.
We are happy to cross this highly requested feature off the roadmap we shared with the community last month. Thanks to the feedly Pro funding, the development of new features is accelerating. Thank you for your backing!
We look forward to hearing what you think and answering any questions you may have.

Q: Do I have to use the feedly login?
Nope, you don’t have to. You can keep using your current login credentials and not touch anything, if you wish.
Q: What are the password rules?
Your password must be at least eight characters long. That’s it!
Q: Does my password expire?
No, it doesn’t expire.
Q: I got an email to confirm my feedly email address. Do I have to click on the link?
The short answer is yes. It’s a good idea to confirm your email because it will enable you to reset your password if you forget it.
Q: Can I reset my password?
Yes, if you forgot your password, you can reset it from the login page and we’ll send you instructions. We can only send an email if you have verified your email address (see above).
Update: Nov 21st – This position has been filled. We are excited to have Petr join feedly and lead our customer support group. More in this the first week of January. -Edwin
Hello. We are looking for someone to join the feedly team and lead our customer relationship efforts. This is an important role at feedly because you will be in direct contact with our users and will have a direct impact on how successful they are at using feedly.
Here is a short overview who we are and the qualities we are looking for in a candidate.
If you are interested in exploring this opportunity, please apply to send us some information about yourself.
Our hiring process takes 2-3 weeks. It starts with a 20-minutes Skype introduction where you get to know us and we get to know you. If there is a match, we set up a follow up meeting to learn more about your customer support experience. We finish the process with 3 short meetings where you get to talk to various people in the team – focusing on culture fit.

The new feedly for iOS is available for download in the App Store. This update takes advantage of the enhancements in iOS 9, reduces crashes, and improves battery consumption.
We integrated feedly with the new iOS 9 Safari viewer so that when you open websites you can take advantage of the full power of Safari.
As part of iOS 9, Apple designed a new font called San Francisco which is more readable at small sizes and more beautiful when used for headlines. For those using this new operating system, we transitioned feedly’s fonts from Helvetica to San Francisco to take advantage of those new features. We are also offering you an option to use San Francisco as the default article font, if you prefer a sans serif reading experience.
Your battery is going to love this change.
If you are running iPhone 6s, you can force touch the feedly app icon and quickly jump to your today, your must reads, your saved storied, or the explore section.
There were a few crash reports in the reviews. We hate crashes as much as anybody else, so we took the time to rewrite how webpages are loaded in feedly and optimize what happens when you swipe from one story to another. This should result in fewer crashes.
We are excited to check off one of the items in the roadmap we shared with the community last week.
