More and more people are accessing this site via mobile, so pardon the latest heads-up from our network hosts, where the developers have been working day and night: The SB Nation iPhone app v1.1 is now available in the App Store.

It incorporates several features from your feedback and suggestions, including the much-requested feature to direct your phone to do an entire orbit of the offensive zone. (Note: COZO feature applies only if you're a right-handed shot playing LW.)

This version (it's free) still gives you the latest from Lighthouse Hockey and 300+ SB Nation blogs, but adds more features. A similar app for Android will be out by the holidays -- which means Androids will be able to virtually scream about the Islanders' December swoon just like iPhone users.

Only having used the sit-at-my-desk version of this site since forever, some of the new features sound pretty essential:

  • Faster loading comments
  • Vastly improved comment experience including the ability to jump to the next unread comment, mark comments as read and reply in-line
  • FanPosts
  • Blog colors
  • An in-app browser
  • Compatibility with iOS 5

If you have any questions, feedback, issues, leave them in this thread. The SBN developers will be surfing around to see what we're saying and incorporate it into future updates.
