Last week, we reported that that Readability, the popular text reflow service, is once again looking to release an iOS app. Well, the app has just gone live in the App Store and can be downloaded as a universal binary for iPhone and iPad for free. Readability for iOS turns any web page into a clean view for reading now or later on your iPhone, iPad or your desktop computer (using the free browser add-on) with seamless syncing of articles across all platforms.
Here is the official blog announcement:
Readability for iOS is the product of a collaboration between the Readability team and the talented designers and builders at Teehan+Lax. It also sports beautiful typography from none other than Hoefler & Frere-Jones.
We wanted to create something that makes it as easy as possible to queue up and take web articles anywhere you go on your iPhone or iPad. Our guiding principle was simple: get out of the reader’s way. We hope you like it.
