AppleInsider introduces new mobile edition designed for iPhone's Safari browser

For the best performance possible, the award-winning design team at digital creative shop Crafted constructed our new mobile site in HTML5 to provide readers with even faster access to the day's breaking stories. From high-resolution images to ease of use, the reworked code is optimized for speed.

Readers who hop over to AppleInsider.com on their iPhones today will also notice a completely revamped user interface that conforms to Apple's latest iOS standards, with a fresh, full-width article timeline and new navigation options for an improved on-the-go reading experience. A new "hamburger" menu button also allows readers to show and hide an interface drawer providing quick access to other popular AppleInsider sections, including new Deals and Reviews listings.

In addition to refined looks, we've added support for rich multimedia content like streaming video, image galleries and interactive documents, and other features normally reserved for desktop viewing environments.

While the design has changed, AppleInsider will continue to provide the most up-to-date, comprehensive coverage of all things Apple, just as it has for the past 19 years.

The mobile-centric site is now live and can be accessed via mobile Safari or any other compatible browser. It's also a great companion to AppleInsider's official iPhone and iPad apps available on Apple's App Store, both of which were also designed and developed by Crafted (who you can follow on Twitter).

Readers should also be aware that a font resize option is in the works will be returning to the mobile site. And for those who prefer to long-press links to open them in new tabs, this functionality works on the new site in iOS 8 (due out in a few days).
