Readability fans who have been waiting patiently for the highly anticipated iOS application to arrive will be pleased to know the wait is now over. The new iOS Readability app is now available to download from the iTunes App Store.
We mentioned that the new Readability iOS applications were readying for release back in November 2011, but now the finishing touches have been added to the Readability application for its official launch. Watch the video after the jump to see the features and benefits of the new iOS Readability application in action.
What is Readability?
For those of you that haven’t already used Readability, it has been created to provide an easy method of transforming cluttered webpages into a super clean layout, ready for instant reading or to save for reading at a later date. The new Readability iOS applications now add an extra option for users who enjoy using the browser add-on. Offering similar features to Instapaper, a similar style of service, Readability is now available to download for free from the iTunes App Store.
Readability is designed to strip away all the unnecessary elements on a webpage, such as ads, sidebars, and other distractions, leaving only the main content. This makes it easier for users to focus on the text and images that matter most. The app also allows users to save articles for offline reading, making it a great tool for those who want to catch up on their reading during commutes or in areas with limited internet access.
“Readability turns any web page into a clean view for reading now or later on your computer, iPhone or iPad. With the Readability app, you can catch up reading what you’ve saved with the free Readability add-on for your web browser.”
Features and Benefits
The Readability iOS app comes packed with a variety of features designed to enhance the reading experience. One of the standout features is its ability to sync across multiple devices. This means that you can start reading an article on your iPhone and finish it on your iPad or computer without losing your place. The app also supports a variety of customization options, allowing users to adjust the font size, style, and background color to suit their preferences.
Another notable feature is the app’s integration with other popular services. For example, you can easily share articles you’ve saved to Readability with your friends on social media or send them to your Kindle for a more traditional reading experience. The app also supports tagging, making it easier to organize and find articles later.
In addition to these features, the Readability app also offers a distraction-free reading mode. This mode removes all the clutter from the screen, leaving only the text and images you want to see. This can be particularly useful for long-form articles or when you want to focus on reading without any interruptions.
Overall, the Readability iOS app is a powerful tool for anyone who enjoys reading online content. Whether you’re a casual reader or a voracious consumer of online articles, the app’s features and benefits make it a must-have for your digital reading arsenal.
