UPDATE Nov. 28th 2007: MobileRSS version 2 has support for importing OPML files. Follow the on-screen instructions on how to do so.MobileRSS is an RSS reader meant for the iPhone. You can access your feeds wherever you want and catch up on the latest news. The only shortcoming I’ve found, so far, was the need to type in feeds manually. No more. If you’ve already ‘broken’ your iPhone [and, if you're considering running MobileRSS, I guess we know the answer] then here’s your fix:
- export the feeds from your news reader of choice as a flat OPML file
- download the jarfile for OPML2MRSS1
- run
java -jar OPML2MRSS.jar <your-opml-file> - copy the resulting file [com.google.code.mobile-rss.plist] into
~/Library/Preferences/on your iPhone - load up MobileRSS and watch all your feeds :)
Caveat: It seems MobileRSS doesn’t like too many feeds. You might want to put only the ones you really enjoy, otherwise load times will be quite large and you run the risk of crashing the program.Let me know if you have problems, hopefully with the OPML that gave you those issues. As it is customary, all responsibility for running this code is with you. Armageddon - not my fault.
