Thanks again for your feedbacks!
We'll definitely implement the horizontal swipe between articles, email sharing and a lot of other features. We are doing our best to push big updates in the following weeks, stay tuned! You can easily get all our updates following us on Twitter https://twitter.com/collectorwp

Re: Collector for Windows Phone (Flipboard alternative)
Okay, one feature request; it would be nifty to be able to rearrange the collections by tapping, holding and dragging - just like with tiles. When you add many the favorites should be on top..

We're designing a new horizontal dashboard, and you're be able to rearrange the collections (probably in the same way that you do on your home screen).
Unfortunately I don't have any live date about this feature (as it will be pretty huge), but it will be before the end of April. ;)

Love this app. I was the first reviewer. There is a lot of potential. I can't wait to see how it continues to develop.

Re: Collector for Windows Phone (Flipboard alternative)
First of all, I would like to say that I think this is a fantastic initiative and an instant buy for me, but I do have some thoughts on a few things in the app:

I would also perhaps see some more alternatives for live tiles (showing images etc.), but other than that, I feel that this is already a very solid news reader with a really nice design.
Keep up the great work, and I'm eager to see what improvements may come in the future!

Re: Collector for Windows Phone (Flipboard alternative)
I need to change region to finally see this. Can you publish this worldwide?

Thanks for your feedbacks, I just forwarded the mockup to our design team.
About the live tiles, our second update (v1.2) will feature a lot of improvements for the live tiles so stay tuned!

Re: Collector for Windows Phone (Flipboard alternative)
Great start!! Good idea with Google Now like card view. I like the UI.
I've a personal nitpick. In the article reading mode can you try disabling the article moving around(pan around) when trying to scroll down? I like pages which doesn't move sideways when trying to scroll down.

Looking forward to it being available in Indonesia market (since this is a paid app)

Re: Collector for Windows Phone (Flipboard alternative)
How's about making it free for 24-48 hours, so we can see it fully working? I like the app, but cannot warrant spending the ££ until i have seen it working with more than one interest.

There's no need to make it free, you can check by yourself all the features of the app with just the two-collections limit. You can also remove any collection that you've created, and add a new one (up to two collections in the trial version).
Edit: You can also watch a video review of the app here

There is plenty to see without paying, I don't get your point? It's hardly expensive too, think about the effort put in.

Re: Collector for Windows Phone (Flipboard alternative)
I saw this thread literally minutes after buying the paid version of Fuse. Collector looks good enough I might not even use Fuse after the next couple Collector updates come out.
Actually, with my obsessive use of news apps, I'll probably keep both. Bottom line: good work on this app.
