Inkline update: 1.1 launches on iPad
Inkline is now a universal Apple app. One reader, one subscription, iPhone and iPad.
Inkline started as a calm, private reader for people who live in the news. Version 1.1 brings it to the big screen, offering a native iPad experience. This was already in the works, but after a night shift on 14th July (surprise launch day!), it’s now being rolled out.
New on iPad
A Today front page. The iPad opens on your reading at a glance: your on-device brief, top stories by category, what your monitors caught overnight, and your latest notes.
A reading workspace. In landscape, the river of stories sits down one side, the story opens beside it, and your notebook stays alongside. A sidebar holds the journalists and library you follow.
Handwritten notes. Write by hand with Apple Pencil, saved next to your typed text.
Desktop-class input. Keyboard shortcuts, pointer and hover, and drag-and-drop.
New on iPhone and iPad
Improved setup with AI. Describe what you care about, and Inkline builds you categories of real publications, each one checked on the spot, so you never start with dead links. (Needs an Apple Intelligence-capable device. Everything else works without one.)
A refreshed look. As realised the Inkline logo was barely used!
Smoother scrolling and a batch of fixes from real-device testing. (I’m aware further improvements could be made here)
