Time Out London 3.0 gets new design, features

Time Out London was an app that at one point almost every Londoner had on his or her iPhone. It was first introduced in 2008, but as the years went by it never received any design or major feature upgrades. It also integrated less and less with Time Out's massive things to do database and became more and more bug-ridden. But that's all changed as of today with the release of Time Out London 3.0.

The app has been completely redesigned with a new, flatter -- and more fluid -- interface, a new navigation system, and even a new icon to signify the breadth of the changes to the app. The UI design cues are heavily influenced by Time Out London's iPad app, which was released last summer right before the Olympics, but it works very well on the smaller screen. The flat design will also fit perfectly in the new flat world that is iOS 7.

For a complete rundown of all the changes, check out the release notes below. Time Out London is a free download.
