I have the same issue. Found that it is some kind of a Chormium web browser based app and that the cache is causing this issue. The RSS feed is always loaded from the cache and will never update.

There's an easy fix/workaround though:

  1. Open Settings > Developer Tools
  2. Go the Network tab and check the Disable Cache checkbox

Now your feeds will check the RSS feed online instead of the local cache.

The setting seems to be permanent so if you close the developer tools / cpod app and check again this Disable Cache checkbox is still checked. But you need to have the developer tools open during the sync process otherwise the cache is not disabled.

Should be implemented in the app by default I guess, or when the caching is used for offline usage it should be implemented differently so that the refresh of the feeds and cover art will work with cache enabled.
