If you just started using Feedly, it might be a little hard at first to get the hang of it. But don't worry; it's pretty straightforward to use. To get you started, here are some basic tips you need to know to get the most out of Feedly.

1. Check Your Recently Read Articles

Feedly is a smart news app that simplifies how you read important news. But if you started reading an article but couldn't finish it, you might want to go back to read it later. However, if you didn't add the article to your Read Later list, it might be hard to find it.

Fortunately, Feedly keeps track of all your recently read articles, so you can continue reading them in a flash.

If you're on Feedly.com, you must click the Navigation menu to open it (it's the three-line button below the Feedly logo near the top left corner). Afterward, you can click Recently Read at the bottom of the menu.

If you're on Android or iPhone, open the Feedly app and tap the Navigation menu button in the bottom left corner of your screen. Then, if you need to, scroll down until you find Recently Read near the bottom.
