Description
✭ Fully optimized with retina graphics for the new iPad ✭
In 2010 The Early Edition redefined the daily newspaper when it launched alongside the original iPad. Now it's been completely redesigned and engineered exclusively for iOS 5. Watch the video demo at earlyedition2.com
✭ WHAT IS IT?
The Early Edition 2 is a beautiful, up-to-the-minute newspaper that puts you in the editorial seat. RSS feeds are the basis for content and now it can be used either as a standalone app or in sync with a Google Reader account.
✭ DYNAMIC PAGE LAYOUT
Now sporting a gorgeous column-based page layout, The Early Edition 2 uses an algorithm to intelligently position stories based on their content. This means every page is now both beautiful and dynamic.
✭ TURNING PAGES
Page turns can now follow your finger which looks stunning. Or you can simply swipe horizontally or tap the edge of the page.
✭ SHARE
Sharing services include: Twitter, Facebook, Instapaper, Readability, Read It Later, Delicious, Evernote & Pinboard.
✭ LESS CLUTTER, MORE CONTENT
Our intuitive multitouch interface strips back visual clutter so you can focus on the news. The main newspaper view is now completely free of buttons in both orientations which means you can simply enjoy browsing and reading your paper.
✭ GO OFFLINE
All images are now cached on the device so if you go out of network coverage, you still get the full reading experience. Also, you can choose to either load images in real-time while you navigate the paper or set it to preload all images. Preloading images is especially useful for Wifi iPads or use when a 3G network is unavailable such as flights.
✭ IMAGES, IN ALL THEIR GLORY
Tapping any image in the main paper view takes you to a swipeable gallery mode, perfect for photography, design or comic feeds. Swipe vertically to view all the images in a single story or horizontally to view images from the next or previous story.
✭ SEARCH
The entire paper is now searchable. And if there are particular search terms you use frequently, you can save them for one-tap searching anytime in the future.
✭ CLIPPINGS
Sometimes there just isn't time to keep up with the flow of news pouring in. Now you can star stories as you browse, and they get sent straight to your Clippings shoebox for later reading.
✭ FEATURED FEEDS
This is our curated list of suggestions for topics and news sources. From here you can preview and subscribe to interesting feeds that you may not have discovered yet.
✭ GESTURES
We've implemented a lot of gestures to make navigating The Early Edition 2 both quick and amazingly fun to use.

Love it!!
I love this App and use it everyday. I can't comment on the Google import as I don't use it. I have a wifi only new iPad and download everything before I take it to work, so I can continue to read articles (with images!) without having a wifi connection. Keep up the good work!!
Best RSS reader.
If you were a big fan the original early edition, you'll love this one! It's perfect in every way. Just what I'm looking for an RSS reader.
Beautiful interface, works just like a newspaper. Your own personalized newspaper.
Recommend to anyone looking for an RSS reader
Been using this for a while and still love it
I bought the first version of this app some time ago and have been very willing to purchase new versions as they have been released. I am only deducting 1 star because I thought earlier versions were a little easier to customize for feeds/content.
I still love the layout of this app when reading content. The higher resolution graphics are nice on the new iPad and it updates to the latest feeds fairly quickly given the size of my subscription list.
I like comparable apps like Zite and Huffington Post but I seem to always come back to Early Edition. Thanks to the developers for keeping this app going.
