The ultimate tablet magazine is ready for your Android.
I’ve tried Android news apps like Pulse orFeedlyand I’ve got to say: I never was impressed.
Feedly, technically still in beta, crashed constantly and mostly just worked with Google Reader.
I stuck to the default Google Reader app.
Until, that is, I found Flipboard.
Sure, the page-flipping thing is gimmicky, but there’s a lot more to this app than that.
Let me give a shot to explain.
Using Flipboard
When you start up Flipboard you’re presented with boxes.
Tap a box and you’ll see content, arranged as though you’re reading a magazine.
It’s intuitive, and really brings the magazine experience to the tablet.
It just works:
Google Reader also works quite well.
Want a box that only shows pictures shared by people you follow on Twitter?
you’re free to do that.
Want a box just for YouTube videos from your favorite channel?
you’re able to do that.
Want a box that only shows status updates from that girl you’re stalking?
you’re free to do that, but don’t.
Talk to her in person like a grown up.
There’s also the social integration, if that’s the sort of thing you care about.
