Aside from the obvious Kindle support, Lovefilm’s iOS app has been iPad-only for two years, with iPhone and iPod Touch owners only being included from today. On the plus side, the app brings AirPlay and IMdB integration, and Lovefilm has been working hard to rack up more content in the UK — having historically been regarded as stronger than Netflix in terms of its movie library. Meanwhile, there’s still nary a peep of a Lovefilm Android app — something even the most recent streaming contender, Wuaki.tv, has managed to deliver.

Fans of Flipboard’s curated content experience that are running Windows 8.1 have had to go without a native app on their Microsoft-powered machines, until today.

Naturally, this version of Flipboard’s been tailored to take advantage of Win8’s gestures as well, so a swipe up provides buttons to subscribe, refresh, edit and flip things, while pulling down from the top lets you see additional content from contributors or stuff others are reading. And, the app supports Windows’ snap feature, so you can use Flipboard side-by-side with other programs.
