Do you have suggestions or ideas for RSS Central?

Adam Dawes — Fri, 30 Mar 2012 00:00:00 GMT

I receive a lot of suggestions for things that people would like me to add to RSS Central. In order to help keep track of these and to allow people to suggest things more easily, I have set up an RSS Central UserVoice page. You can find it here: rsscentral.uservoice.com.

If you have suggestions or ideas, please post them. Also please vote on the ideas that are already present. I'll use the page to see which ideas are most in demand, and will consider future development of the app based on these ideas.

Please do get involved and let me know what you would like to see next -- thanks!

Interested in translating RSS Central into another language?

Adam Dawes — Thu, 29 Dec 2011 00:00:00 GMT

Would anyone reading this be interested in helping me translate RSS Central into other languages? I've spent a fairly large amount of time modifying all the code to allow this, and I'm very nearly at the point where I need translators to work their magic.

I've already had offers to translate it into Swedish, Czech and Spanish (Latin American). I've had an offer for German too, but my German translator no longer has a Windows Phone, so if anyone can help there it will make testing much easier.

I'm very interested in any other languages people would be willing to help with. If you would be willing to help, please drop me an email.

Many thanks and I look forward to hopefully hearing from you!
