It essentially act as an android emulator runs all the android applications in x86 environment.

Well, there is a tool out there called BlueStacks, that we covered before. The first was the android phone support, last month they finally updated Flipboard to add support for android tablets. Lately Flipboard opens the iOS exclusive gates, and made it available for android devices. The way Flipboard organizes your personal feed made it the BEST reading and consuming contents apps out there. Like I mentioned before this version of Flipboard embraces the Metro-style design of Windows, so it also support Snap view to read stories side-by-side with other apps.Ever since Flipboard first came out for the iPad it has been one of the go-to apps I use day in and day out. Just swipe from the bottom up, and you find commands like subscribe, refresh, or pin to the Start screen. You can “flip” (swipe) your stories like in a magazine, tap items to view them, you can tap “Discover” from the top bar to find even more content, and of course you can add your publications and search stories.įlipboard also has more options, which are easily accessible from the Windows 8.1 App commands. You have your Cover Stories section with content you’re subscribed to, the other sections are populated with content you’re interested in.

Once you’re all set up configuring the app, browsing and discovering new content is as you would expect from Flipboard in iOS or Android. As such this version comes with support for Snap view and Live Tile, so you can pin your favorite sections to the Start screen too. When you first set up the popular content discovery app, you’ll notice that shares a lot of similarities with the Android and iOS version, but this new version of Flipboard has been tailored to match the look and feel of Windows 8.1. Flipboard finally arrives to Windows 8.1 and you can download it today from the Windows Store.
