New York Times for Android app updated for tablets

All the news that's fit to print wasn't fitting very well on 10 inch Android tablets. So The New York Times for Android has been updated to offer a better UI for those with the larger sized tablets like the Google Nexus 10. The update allows the image on screen to adjust to different screen sizes. On the 10 inch glass, The New York Times offers a "more compelling layout" with multiple columns, larger images and scaled typography.

The updated New York Times for Android also gives you more control over how you receive Breaking News. A quick look at the Top News will now show you the latest news and features from other sections. And the update also brings some bug fixes and enhancements to the app. This will be version 3.0 for those keep track of such things.

The New York Times for Android is a free download from the Google Play Store.
