The 8 best alternatives to Google Reader for iOS and Android
Share:
Google Reader is dying, but that doesn't mean you are going to be cut off from the world. There are dozens of Google Reader apps and not all of them are going to simply disappear when Google shuts down Reader. Instead, there is likely to be something of a renaissance in the world of RSS readers, because there is a lot of competition about to happen. With that in mind, here are the 8 best alternatives to Google Reader.
We'll break it down into 3 categories to make it a bit easier. For the hardcore news junkies, the clear choice is NewsBlur, although Taptu is also a good option. For those looking for a more casual way to pull things together and may not necessarily need RSS options, there is Feedly, Google Currents, Flipboard, and Pulse News. And, for those who want news, but don't necessarily need a dedicated app, there's Twitter and Google+.
Let's go a bit more in-depth on the choices:

I would like suggest another alternatives to google reader.
Unlike ordinary RSS-readers, LikeHack.com adds links from your Facebook and Twitter feeds, and also provides two kinds of custom filters to eliminate whole topics by keywords and exclude instagram photos and other media from your feed. It makes also all links you shared searchable.
We have launched recently and glad to invite you to test!

Best of all, NewsBlur is open source and has an amazingly robust API, so even though the apps are limited right now, that could very well change if enough users migrate over. NewsBlur is a somewhat small product right now, but there are already plans to add servers to make up for the expected growth (so try back soon, because the site may be overloaded as of this writing).
Newsblur offers a free tier, which gives you access to 64 feeds, and a paid tier which gives you unlimited feeds and faster syncing for $1 per month.
