<p>This week brings us a minor, but major, update for <a href="http://www.newsblur.com/ios">the NewsBlur iOS app</a>. Several new features, some due to new APIs in iOS 7, have made it into the app.</p>
<p><img src="https://s3.amazonaws.com/static.newsblur.com/blog/ios3.6.png" alt="" /></p>
<p>Heres whats new:</p>
<ul>
<li>Background updates so NewsBlur can download stories while you sleep</li>
<li>Custom text sizes for feeds and stories</li>
<li>Dynamic text sizes based on your system preferences</li>
<li>The story title is now linked to the original story</li>
<li>New preference to use either the in-app browser, Safari, or Chrome</li>
<li>Major iPad fixes include better transitions, bugs squashed, and improved performance</li>
</ul>
<p>Coming up I have a big ticket feature that is just about ready to launch. Stay tuned for saved story tagging, which will also make its way into the Android and iOS app soon.</p>
<p>Download the latest and free <a href="http://www.newsblur.com/ios">NewsBlur iOS app</a>.</p>
