Original Huffington Post App Gains New Features As It Goes Universal


Way back in March 2009, The Huffington Post released its official iPhone app. Then, in June 2010, it separately launched its official iPad app. Now, in May 2012, it has updated the former to be universal while announcing that it’s set to abandon the the latter, which, for all intents and purposes, is now redundant...................


“This version of the HuffPost iPad app will only be available for a few more months in the app store,” notes the popular news site’s iOS development team in its release notes. “We have a new universal app available with great new features like offline reading, bookmark synching and more international editions. Go download it now!”
Indeed, the original HuffPost app, previously optimized for iPhone and iPod touch only, is now natively compatible with iPad as well.
