How Does It Work
- For the moment Learnist is available for iOS (iPhone only), Android and Web users.
- Go to the App Store on your phone, type Learnist, install or click directly on the icon in this post.
- When the app opens, the first window will ask you to sign up via your Facebook or Twitter accounts.
- 3 main categories will show up – what’s new, Learnist Essentials and Recommended Boards.
- Below there is a list of different topics – I selected Travel & Places, the beautiful interface is easy to use with your finger.
- Pick the article you want to read, then click on the symbol: Add To Reading List and keep browsing.
- You are building your own collection of articles – when you go back to the ‘homepage’ of the app, the same blue symbol (on the top left) is your saved boards. You can save it to read later when you take public transport for work, on the couch or before going to bed 🙂
- The only down point is not (yet) available on the iPad which is better to read articles on, maybe later… but still a great nice and clean app.
