User Reviews
Flipboard replaced 5 different news apps for me. The magazine format makes reading news feel less stressful than doom-scrolling social media. I follow niche topics like astrophotography and urban farming, and the content is always relevant and high-quality.
My morning coffee routine is Flipboard on my tablet. The layout is beautiful and the content is always fresh. Creating my own magazines for research topics helps me organize articles better than any bookmark system.
