Reader is one of the most popular RSS clients out there for Apple devices. It’s available on OS X and iOS, and up until now it has mainly been used in conjunction with Google Reader. Now that Google has announced its plans to kill Google Reader in the coming months, many are starting to look to alternative RSS aggregators.

Today the maker of the app Reeder, Silvio Rizzi, announced that Feedbin support will be added soon to the iPhone version. Feedbin is a simple, clean-looking Google Reader replacement with an API that third-party clients can utilize.

The Mac and iPad versions of Reeder will get Feedbin support when version 2.0 of Rizzi’s app launches later down the road. The 2.0 Reeder update has been in the works for several months already.

Reeder also currently supports Fever, a service that acts like Google Reader but also curates feeds to find the hottest articles.

Feedbin is like Google Reader, but it costs $2 per month. It will be interesting to see what other kinds of Google Reader alternatives gain prominence in the coming months.
