iPhone App: BusinessWeek

October 15th, 2009

starstarstar = 3 stars

Read recent articles from BusinessWeek magazine, plus current business news articles and stock quotes, on your iPhone.

The Good

  • Serves up articles from BusinessWeek magazine. Another section tracks stock quotes and latest news. The UI is pretty bare bones but easy to figure out.
  • Option to share articles via email or Twitter.

The Bad

  • The font for the headlines is a little small. Would be nice to have an option to increase font size.
  • The stock section with latest news section is less successful. The charts are on the very small side with no option to see a larger view, which both Bloomberg and Yahoo! Finance provide.
  • I know business news is generally rather dry, but none of the articles have pictures.

Conclusion

Since this app is free, and is essentially a free subscription to BusinessWeek on your iPhone, it’s hard to find much fault with it. I wouldn’t bother with the stock quote sections however.
