Can someone help me with possible Android RSS function

I'm finally converting one of my apps to Android, and one of the main functions of my existing iOS apps is pulling posts from a Wordpress site using the RSS screen. I found this tutorial, which I think looks cool, but was wondering if someone with more experience with HTML/PHP than me could modify it to be a simple RSS puller for a custom HTML screen in BT (Android, specifically, since the RSS doesn't work). http://net.tutsplus.com/tutorials/javascript-ajax/how-to-build-an-rss-reader-with-jquery-mobile-2/ The tutorial goes through making a real nice jquery interface to pull multiple RSS feeds, and all the supporting files are there to download. But I was thinking if someone could find the right amount of code to just pull one RSS feed and display it - that would be all we would need for the Custom HTML screen in BT. Or if anyone has another simple solution, I'm all ears. Thanks!

I've been using this (https://www.rssinclude.com/) for my Android rss feeds until there is a working plugin. Check it out. Works pretty well.

I looked at some RSS readers that are mobile HTML based a few months back. RSSInclude.com comes to mind, but there were a couple of others. I'll second RSSInclude, since I just noticed MgoBlue's attestation. Rob

Hi, For rss reader have you seen my plugin? http://www.buzztouchmods.com/downloads.php?cat_id=1 Use it with the header image plugin and you have the rss-reader option. Best Regards, Danny EDIT: sorry didn't see it was for android. My solution (plugin) works for iPhone.

MGoBlue - Looked at that site but not sure that I understand what I an supposed to do. I'm not a programmer (obviously). Do you mind being a little more specific? Thanks!!!
