USA Today adds Live Tile and more with v1.1


One of the highest quality 'official' apps we've seen for Windows Phone so far is USA Today. The publication has done a superb job with the app's design, features, and performance. That only gets better with a new update issued today, bumping up the app to v1.1. Here's what's new:

New Features in v1.1:
- Live Tile! A photo mashup based on our latest headlines
- Latest news videos on a dedicated video panel
- Sub-section headlines: hold down any of the section tiles to bring up a list of sub-sections to choose from, i.e. Sports > MLB headlines. Tile will default to that subsection.
- Photo caption and credit for articles
- Recall last league viewed in Scores
- Major League Soccer scores added
- Celsius toggle for weather temps
- Support for international weather locations (limited maps)
- Weather alerts on current conditions screen
- Various bug fixes

Yes, this is yet another app that includes a live tile and we have to admit it could be our favorite one. The tile is split up into a 3x3 grid consisting of photos from all of the top articles, and it compliments Mango's new People tile in that design look very nicely. If you haven't tested out the app for yourself yet, go grab USA Today from the Marketplace for free by clicking on the tile below.
