Description
The only app linked to by DrudgeReport.com. Brought to you by the iDrudgeReport.com and DrudgeReportArchives.com team.
Version 2.1 of the Official Drudge Report iPhone App.
Better, faster, leaner and fully customizable. Optimized for iOS4. Most of the development effort focused on improving performance and enhancing user experience. iPhone3 is no longer supported, iOS3 is.
Just some of the positive emails for v2.1:
Just downloaded the new update, and it's a damn good one I must say! Love the Instapaper, and how you can control and change around and resize the tool bar! Also love the fullscreen access in shaking and to be able to put it on the tool bar at bottom!
###
Faster, no false moves, can't crash (yet-- I am trying to make it crash without success) quicker response, better backspace icon position, etc., etc.
BIG STEP UP
GREAT JOB
###
It is exactly what I wanted, an option to turn off all of the bells and whistles. I've got it stripped down like a race car and it handles good in the curves !
###
Looks great so far. Auto sizing is working much better. Nice changes!
###
Just emailed a story and happy to report that it not just doing a copy and paste thereby preserving what was already in the buffer from a prior copy and paste.
Haven't spent too much time on the app so I'll report back with my feedback. At first glance I prefer the cleaner interface.
###
I just loaded your new version. Overall, it seems much faster and loads apps quicker. It refreshes page quickly and reloads at top of page. It doesn't seem to get stuck when I scroll through page or when I return to main site.
###
It seems to work really well and us not do buggy. The SMS feature I suggested is great! Thank you!
###
Fantastic improvements!

To those who do not care enough email feedback, and instead attack the app on iTunes with graffiti, it's seen by all for what it is.

Customer Reviews
iAds everywhere in new 2.1 version
Plastering intrusive, large iAds at the bottom of every screen in this 2.1 version of Drudgereport robs the user of valuable screen space.
At the very least, this app should make the iAds retract or disappear after a reasonable amount of time, as so many other quality apps currently do.
Needs to be rewritten
I love Matt and the Drudge Report and in the spirit of truth and honesty this application really needs a facelift. It does not merit a rating beyond one star. That is because the interface might as well be nothing more than a link to the mobile website. And in the iPhone world, user interface is everything.
I suggest farming the development out to a consulting firm who has iPhone development experience. It appears that you are using in-house people who are trying to learn on the fly without the necessary skill sets.
Needs more ads
Crash when you open a article maybe a few more ads will bring it down competly
