Flipboard has announced that its popular iPad application is now available as a universal app, which means that Apple iPhone users can now enjoy it. The popular news reader offers users a magazine style view of news feeds, complete with animations and sharing functions, and includes social networking integration as well. Flipboard has redesigned its app to accommodate the much smaller real estate of an iPhone, and has also added a new Cover Stories feature that surfaces popular stories to the front page. Cover Stories is currently available only on the iPhone, but is said to be "coming soon" to the iPad as well.
"The iPad is an amazing device that challenged us to rethink how people discover and share social updates and news. With the iPhone we redesigned Flipboard for those times during the day when you've only got a few minutes to check in, when people want to find the things they care about even faster," said Mike McCue, CEO of Flipboard. "Flipboard for iPhone has been our number one request and now this release finally puts all the power of Flipboard in your pocket."
To get the free Flipboard app, visit iTunes.
