Feed Reader on Windows Phone Even After Last Update

Feed Reader on Windows Phone unable to connect to NewsBlur… again. Last time it was because it wasn’t submitting a User-Agent, but I’m not sure what the issue is now. I cannot connect.

It’s been unfortunately banned due to its behavior. It was sending hundreds of bogus requests. I’ve spoken to the developer and am planning to unban its user agent as soon as the hundreds of bogus requests per minute stop.

Thanks for the update Samuel. Does this apply to the Windows 8 / RT version as well, or just the phone?

Both. I’ve had to ban the string “Feed Reader” as a user agent. Ugh.

Dang. I thought I was all set.
