Note that Feedbro scans for new articles automatically in the background so "Update all feeds" button shouldn't be really necessary. Also when you open Feedbro first time in the browser session, it will trigger a scan.
However, we have just added the button to the toolbar (available in Feedbro 3.32.4) since some users want to have very long (or none at all) automatic scanning interval and want to manually check for changes. Note also that this approach makes you easily lose updates since if you only check for new articles every 6 hours and feed publishes 20 articles per hour and only keeps the latest 20 in the XML, you lose many articles since they are no longer available in the XML.
Note also that it's quite resource intensive to check all feeds at once (especially if you have hundreds of feeds). But since many people have asked for this - here it is. :)

- Rated 1 out of 5by emaloney, 17 days agoStopped working with eBay a few days ago. No response from Nodetics. Looks like it's dead in the water.
- Rated 4 out of 5by BethNicole, a month agoFirst Impressions are that it's exactly what I was looking for. I haven't found an empty feed option but I can live without thay.
- Rated 3 out of 5by McNamara, a month agoI wanted to get the feed article in full through your help file so that I could read the articles offline.
When only online, it just shows the web page.
After going offline, it searches the content by trying to connect again
Please let me know if you could improve it further. And provides the content offline
Then I don't have to search one which provides such feature

- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 14020785, a month agoThis has been the perfect feed reader for my needs, lots of functionality, except: I miss a way to move my starred articles over to a new browser installation. Is there a way to do this? Some of these articles are a couple of years old.

It would be sensational if the template changed automatically at sunset from light to dark. - Rated 5 out of 5by 远离中共邪教快退出党团队, 2 months ago

- Rated 4 out of 5by Firefox user 16181250, 2 months agoOne of the more advanced feed readers out there.
Can't make it work in private windows in spite of setting it to do so.
Couldn't find a way to give feedback to Nodetics - Rated 3 out of 5by Firefox user 13272506, 2 months agoSo far the best RSS add-on, but it definitely needs an undelete / recycle-bin option!
Edit 2025.03.16: Lately it keeps losing all messages (read/unread) messages after browser restart. Peeping for alternatives... - Rated 5 out of 5by corujo, 2 months agoDoes everything it says on the tin, it's simple and lightweight.
just needs an option to limit/block notifications on startup - Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 11647180, 3 months ago
