Original Release Date for this iPhone App: September 17, 2009
Note: The Fox News web server that provides iPhone-formatted news and videos for this app went off-line at around 10 PM on 12/29/09. The app will function properly as soon as the server is back on line. The problem is not update-related. We are very sorry for the temporary inconvenience.
With over 20,000 satisfied customers, this is the original, the most popular, and the best Fox News Reader.
This reader/viewer is intelligent. It reads the news stories from each of FoxNews.com sub-sites and puts the story titles, images, and timestamp into the scrollable lists preferred by iPhone/iTouch users. It saves this list in memory so it does not have to be re-loaded each time the user returns home.
Users can quickly see the images and scan the story titles in each of the eight sections available on the Fox News web site. Tapping a link opens a full-size window so that the linked news item can be read immediately or after only one double tap to enlarge the print. Thats all - no tap or one tap to select the section, one tap to select the item, and no taps or two taps to begin reading. When you are done reading the story, a single tap brings you quickly back to the scrollable lists of links.
The full-size story window can also be viewed in landscape mode by rotating the iPhone or iTouch.
Fox News videos function in the full-size viewing window so their is no need to exit the application if the linked story includes a video.
Since Fox News continually updates their web site, iFoxNews - Fox NewsReader features a Refresh button to update its list of linked stories.
