As previously promised at their Google I/O developer conference, Google has just released an updated version of their Google+ app for iOS, adding full support for the iPad! The update also adds the new Google+ Events feature, Hangouts (with full AirPlay support), the ability to instantly upload photos to posts, and more!
From the Official Google Blog:
A hands-on iPad experience
The Google+ app for iPad was designed with the device in mind. Your stream styles content based on popularity, type and orientation. We’ve also added unique ways to interact with the app—lean back and try these out:
- Pinch and expand posts right in your stream to add your comments
- Use two fingers to drag a post from your stream to easily re-share it
- Start a Hangout from your iPad and stream it to your TV using AirPlay
The update marks the second major update to the Google+ iOS app, and is available now for both iPhone and iPad from the App Store (free, App Store link).
