Nextgen Reader is one of our favorite Windows Phone apps. The fast, clean, and beautiful apps for Windows 8 and Windows Phone offer a great RSS reader experience. The Windows Phone app is free in the Windows Phone Store today as part of the ‘App of the Day’ campaign by DVLUP, Nokia’s developer rewards program.
Also, as part of Microsoft’s Red Strip Deals promo for the holiday season, the Windows 8 app is available at $1.49 only through rest of the year. That’s 50% of the regular price!
Both Windows Phone and Windows 8 apps have ad-free, fully functional trials, which is very generous of the developer. However, it’s a good time to convert those trials to full products to save yourself from future feature limitations or ads.
Want more? We're told that new updates and features are coming in the first half of January, for both versions. Stay tuned!
Download Nextgen Reader from the Windows Phone Store for Windows Phone 7.x and 8 devices and from Windows Store for Windows 8.

Deal Alert: Nextgen Reader goes free for Windows Phone, and 50% off for Windows 8
Sorry - Weave is better: No Google account required and has SkyDrive sync between Win8.1 and WinPhone :) I'll consider this app once it adds that functionality.
Yes, doesn't seem free in the uk! :(
Yes, deal is over but please go ahead and try the trial version (no limitations or ads for the moment).
Live tiles not working for me...just showing blank tile with title of subscriptions, no "live" with tile. I reinstated, change everything in settings, but.....WP7.8
Please try the steps mentioned here: http://nextmatters.com/help/#tab-windows-phone
tnx...working :-)
It's not free now.
Has the deal expired already?
I keep trying other newsreaders and own quite a few other, but always seems to migrate back to NextGen Reader on both WP and W8. Just smooth and reliable. Have yet to find an alternative that works as well.
Yeah its not free. Thanks for the thought though, better late than never?
So the article is posted approx 1150 pm, it is 3 am now, and feedly still cots regular pric, so was that a deal for yesterday? Why post this article with thirteen minutes before the end of promotion?
hey guys, which of these readers is the best?
• Weave
• Nextgen reader
• Pouch
• Squirrel
• Readit
• Phonly
Nextgen Reader, especially on Windows 8.
I use Phonly, the free version, and from what i've tried is the coolest app. Simply to use + nice interface
Definitely Weave. It's the only reader app that has SkyDrive sync between the Windows 8 and Windows Phone apps. No Google account required!
Great, upgraded both WP and W8 version, using them daily, basically best RSS reader out there.
if i have the trial installed, will it automagically be upgraded to the "paid" version?
Just uninstall current version download this to be safe.
Yes, trials are simply "unlocked" to full version. I've never had a problem with any apps or games and you don't need to reinstall anything.
Heck of a deal. This is one of those apps that feel like part of the OS. Quick, simple, reliable. It's been my newsreader for more than a year!
I second that, just love the app. Use it every day on my phone and on my Windows 8 PC, since i own a Windows Phone.
Wondering if wpcentral app could also be free :)
Thank goodness u would hav started an argument here:P
The trial is free and full-featured. If you don't like ads then pay a measly buck for it
Google account requirement sucks, weave is better in this regard.
Downloaded it, it's my favourite reader until flipboard will come out
I believe the trial was unlimited, nice to get rid of ads though
Does anybody know about stuff are going to happen for the next days or in the early of 2014 year?????????????????????
Yes, many things
My favorite "news spot" on my Lumia 920 and for free! I got the app a couple of months ago and it's one of the apps I use every single day. Go get it!
Nextgen Reader is amazing for Feedly users. No-brainer, I use it constantly.
Is this better than Weave??
Best RSS app on any platform. For FREE it is a no brainer, but I paid for it long ago. You won't be disappointed, grab it now.
Flipmag might edge this one out.
I live by Flux but have nextgen reader just in case.
Damn i already have it for free!!! Now I can't get that satisfaction of getting a free app.
Free again,. Nice
Isnt it always been free?
"Hasn't"
Must be always free for me then because I was a beta tester?
Won't it always been free
Grammar Check.
Good news
NOW It's free?! Thanks a lot... -_-
I feel dumb but what's a RSS reader.

Thanks for the heads up. :) Feedly users will be ecstatic. :D
On the other hand I don't really use anything Google related. I downloaded just in case they ever change their model.
How is Nextgen Reader 'Google related'?
Google login required... which is also a deal breaker for me.
Same here. I don't plan on ever getting a Google account again.
I don't use any Google service except YouTube, but use lot of services which use Google account for authentication. I'm cool like that. ;)
Nothing is worth getting a google account
Same here nothing scroogle ever again!
Same here, but I'm thinking about dropping Youtube too once a good alternative comes along
Seconded. Even try to avoid YouTube, by using Dailymotion and Vimeo.
Same here.
