Flipboard for Android gets support for audio, offers SoundCloud connectivity

Flipboard Android Audio

Popular magazine-style social news reader Flipboard is launching an update to its Android app. According to Inside Flipboard, its latest app release lets users add a soundtrack to their flipping.

This update lets Android smartphone and tablet users listen to audio content offered under Flipboards Audio category and its Content Guide. These include sound bites from NPRs Fresh Air and PRIs The World. Additionally, users can connect a SoundCloud account for access to Streams, Likes, Sounds, Sets and Groups.

The audio functionality originally launched on Flipboards iOS app in May this year. Originally an iOS exclusive app, Flipboard launched on Android this June, integrating social streams from various sources like Google+ and YouTube. The app offers a magazine-like user interface, which makes reading content more pleasant, especially when using a tablet. Flipboard intelligently pulls content from your social networks, and the app competes directly with the likes of Google Currents, Zite and Pulse.

Flipboard is a free download from the Google Play store. But Amazon Kindle Fire and Barnes & Noble Nook users need not worry, as Flipboard is also releasing the app update on these app ecosystems soon.
