Show RSS feed in PowerApps
First, we will create a canvas app from the PowerApps.com site.
If you are new to PowerApps Canvas App, check out the below URLs:

Here create an app and you may choose Phone layout or Tablet layout.
Then add one controls in your screen: DataTable1 from Power Apps input controls.
The PowerApps screen looks like below:
Next, go to the dataSource and search RSSFeed and double click on it to add in dataTable.
Next go to the Items property in the dataTable and set the property like:
"RSS.ListFeedItems ("http://feeds.bbci.co.uk/news/world/rss.xml")"
Once connection gets success, it will by default create a Title column in the dataTable and bind all feeds in the table.
If you want to add more columns in the table, then click on Add Field in the right side of the windows and check the field name which you want.
Below is the list of property that is available in the RSSFeed. You can add or remove it, as per your requirement.
Properties:
