Google's Currents App for iOS Refreshed

Jan 25, 2013, 7:59 AM by Eric M. Zeman

Google recently made an update to its Currents application available to iOS devices. Currents is Google's digital magazine app, and presents articles and other content in a visually appealing fashion (similar to Flipboard and Pulse). The update carries over the fresh design given the Android version of the app. Other new features include an "edition sidebar" for accessing information sorted by categories; fast scan, which provides a quick view of an edition with a vertical swipe; new breaking stories as ranked by Google news; and saved stories that can be retrieved easily. The application is a free download from the iTunes App Store.

It's funny how Google creates better Google apps for Apple than for their Android phones.

I do find this bizarre as well. But it makes sense in that iOS has a HUGE market and Google knows that.

Google likes money too!
