Readdle’s native app for iPhone

Ever notice a nagging problem with iPhone? When you open attachments in your email, you can’t store them on the iPhone itself. So if you are offline, you have no access to these documents.

Readdle has just announced plans to address this problem. Last year, Readdle had launched a web based service that let you upload documents or eBooks to your Readdle account and read them conveniently from your iPhone. After the release of the SDK, Readdle has decided to take the native apps route. Plans for a new, more efficient service have just been announced.

The native app will offer all that the web based service does, including free storage space, support for all major document formats and provide the much-needed offline access to documents. The new service will let you forward emails with attachments to a custom Readdle email address--this will in fact send the document to your iPhone, so you can access it offline.

A great combination of reading convenience and storage capability. Take a look at the web app for now.
