Offline Reading

About Offline Reading

With Offline Reading, you can save news articles into your phone's memory card. Uses include:

  • Read news when you don't have internet access (inside subway or plane)
  • Avoid using expensive data networks (e.g., when you're in roaming area)
  • Quickly read many articles without downloading them one-by-one
(A) Simple Method of Offline Reading

(1) Tap on the download icon next to the feed title


(2) If this is your first time, please configure the offline settings.


(3) DO NOT enable "Sync with 2G/3G net" unless you have unlimited data plan from your wireless carrier.


(4) Choose how many pages you'd like to download, and click OK


(5) When syncing is complete, the title of the saved feed will show the gray icon


(6) The title of a saved article also shows the gray icon


(B) Reading Saved Articles

(1) From NubiNews home page, choose Offline Reading

(C) Syncing Multiple Feeds

(1) To sync multiple feeds at the same time, first use NubiNews to browse to the desired feed.


(2) Press your phone's MENU key, and choose Bookmarks

(5) Select the bookmark(s) that you'd like to download, and then choose Sync Now

(D) About Images

(1) By default, images are not saved during sync operations. If you'd like to save images as well, please press your phone's MENU key, and then choose Settings -> Sync Settings -> Enable Offline Sync -> Image limit per Sync.
