Digital mag retailer Zinio opens Android store

Digital magazine retailer Zinio has launched a new app for tablets and smartphones running Google’s Android operation system.

The retailer offers single issue and subscription purchases for some of the world’s biggest magazines all within a single app.

Available titles include Cosmopolitan, Men’s Fitness and O, The Oprah Magazine.

Zinio has previously launched on Apple’s iOS platform and has sold digital magazines for Windows and Mac PCs and laptops since the early 2000’s.

Android users who download the Zinio app before June 15 will receive 24 free magazines.

“Zinio offers the greatest breadth for magazines today, both in terms of device and platform availability and sheer number of titles globally,” said Rich Maggiotto, Zinio president and CEO.

“We continue to deliver new features and platform availability that allows our users to enjoy their favorite magazines in the most compelling way. In the coming month, we will also be adding other operating systems to the mix to allow Zinio users access to their magazines from all of their devices, as well as introducing new ways to explore and enjoy digital content”
