Flipboard debuts a new look for iOS and Android

Flipboard is slowly encroaching into the space that newspapers used to occupy in our lives. The news aggregation app is introducing a new look for iOS and Android and is adding a Daily Edition section. Typography has been improved, a new navigation bar, and full-screen images for magazine covers. Daily Edition is a roundup of the top stories from the thousand of topics (over 30,000!) available on the app. In that section you will also see an audio track of the day and "parting GIF" when you're done going through the news items.
