Dear Developer,
I’d love to suggest three quality-of-life improvements that would greatly enhance the reading experience for power users and daily RSS readers:
Full Article Sharing
Currently, sharing often only sends the article link/title. It would be extremely useful to have an option to share the full fetched article content (including text and images). This would make the app much more valuable for research, archiving, collaboration, and offline reading workflows.
Larger Image Display Option
Many feeds are highly visual, but thumbnail-sized images reduce readability and engagement. A setting to display larger preview images (or even full-width images) in the feed list would significantly improve browsing, especially for news and magazine-style feeds.
Adjustable Preview Line Count
The current 2-line preview limit feels too restrictive for quickly evaluating articles.
Please consider adding a customizable preview length setting, allowing users to choose how many lines of text appear in the feed view.
Ideally, an adjustable range up to 10 lines would greatly improve scanning efficiency and reduce unnecessary article opens.
Thank you for your time and effort for the app, all the best

Research direction
Treat the request as three separate feature investigations: full-article sharing, larger feed images, and configurable preview lines up to 10. Start by locating the Android feed-view, sharing, and settings entry points, then define the scope and acceptance criteria for each behavior. Done should be verified separately for sharing full content, image sizing, and selectable preview lengths.
