The Cracked Reader

We created this iPhone app for the popular humor site, Cracked.com to allow their readers to read the latest articles. Articles are loaded dynamically from the Cracked servers, and include multimedia features such as photo slideshows and video.

This application is a great example of a content driven application for a news site or a blog. A native application like this helps keep visitors coming back due to the convenience, performance, and accessibility of a native iOS interface.
