Free
Remember printed newspapers? Me neither. Flipboard may be the app that gets you on the digitally-delivered-news bandwagon.
Categories: NEWS_AND_MAGAZINES News Aggregators
Do you miss the sensation of flipping pages?
When there are many of one type of app, a good way to differentiate yourself is visually. Flipboard does this in two ways (that are really one way). First, this news aggregator presents text in a clean, uncluttered interface, and second, it allows you to move through articles by flipping the pages vertically. Now, on the surface you may think this seems unnecessarily showy, but after just one minute with the app, you realize that flipping to the next page feels completely natural, and you'll want to do it with everything. You can customize your feed with a great range of news outlets, so it's on you to decide exactly how long you want to spend staring at your phone's screen, reading articles in this fun new way. If more things flipped, this world would be a happier place. -- Keoni C.
Flipboard brings together world news and social news in a beautiful magazine designed for your Android phone and tablet. Once you pick a few topics, your Flipboard is built and you can instantly start flipping through the pages of news you care about and stories and photos friends are sharing. And with Flipboard 2.0, when you find things that you want to save for later or collect into your own ‘magazine’ on Flipboard, just tap the “plus” + button on any item.
