A mobile news application for Google's Android mobile platform. The app was developed by Mercury Intermedia. Similar to the iPhone app, I worked with their creative director, Rusty Mitchell, on the design, user interface and functionality of the application. We worked to port as much of our iPhone app's functionality and style to here after it had proved quite successful on the iPhone. However, the platform's discernible differences required us to rethink some of the layout and functionality of the app, some aspects of which we'll likely be rolling into an update for the iPhone application.
