I am making a very simple app with an RSS reader. The reader works great, but it's only giving me the title, and i want the description too.
I'am very new to android, and I have tried a lot of things, but I can't get it to work.
I've found a lot of parsers but they are to complicated for me to understand, so I was hoping to find a simple solution, since it's only title and description i want.
Can anyone help me?
