Banish that guilt-inducing stack of New Yorkers on your bedside table with one of the best-executed magazine apps out there. Your tower of back issues is now a tidy gallery of thumbnail covers, and with slightly wider columns and shorter pages, the digital version is less intimidating than its print counterpart. Aesthetically, the app stays true to The New Yorker's no-frills layout, signature typefaces, and scattered cartoon surrealism, but there are occasional photo slide shows and bits of audio commentary. Print subscribers get full access, with weekly notifications when the next issue is ready to download. But it's still up to you to read it all.
WIRED Elegant thumbnail navigation for jumping between stories. Full-screen view for cartoons. In-app utility for entering the weekly caption contest.
TIRED Process for linking online account to print subscription — required for full digital access — is a bit muddled.
