The New Yorker Magazine Comes to the iPhone

The New Yorker Magazine iPad app has been updated and it now supports the iPhone natively. It comes with some additional features: 

• A video introduction to The New Yorker app for iPhone, featuring Lena Dunham and Jon Hamm (iPhone only)
• Multimedia, including video, audio, infographics, slide shows, archival articles, and primary source documents
• Sharing on Twitter, Facebook, and via e-mail
• A weekly slide show of all the current issue’s cartoons, plus five archival bonus cartoons per issue
• Entry in the Cartoon Caption Contest directly from the app
• Links to updated web content, for perspectives on the news of the day
• Place-holding within articles
• Multiple navigation tools

Because of the launch of the iPhone version, the August 13 and 20, 2012 issue is free to anyone who downloads the app. Previous issues are not free.

You can download the New Yorker Magazine free as a universal app (iPhone/iPad/iPod Touch) in the App Store [iTunes Link].
