Flipboard for Windows Phone had a false release some few days ago without the flipping action found on other OS. After years of being in development, the news reading app finally made its way to the Windows Phone Store. The app supports Windows 8.1 devices with at least 1GB of RAM, and there’s work in progress for a 512 MB-optimized version of the app. Microsoft’s Joe Belfiore used his Twitter feed to make the announcement, and will come preloaded on the Lumia 830 that’s set to hit the market soon. For those whom their device meets the current requirement, you can grab the app from the Windows Store now. See see a list of the features below for Windows Phone Flipboard below.
