Flipboard Is 2 Years Old: 20 Million Users & Other Crazy Numbers

Flipboard

Flipboard, the superb iPad news magazine, turned two this summer. The app’s publishers have announced this birthday and shared some of the major accomplishments they’ve worked on over the last year:

This summer, we celebrated our second birthday. Just the last year alone makes our bones hurt: we launched iPhone and smartphone editions; debuted features like Cover Stories, audio and shopping; added seven new social networks; forged partnerships with publishers like The New York Times, and localized into eight languages.

They also shared some crazy numbers for Flipboard at 2 years old. As you can see in the infographic above, these impressive numbers include:

  • 20 million Fliboard users
  • 3 billion flips (roughly equivalent to a page view) per month
  • 1 new user ‘born’ every second
  • 1.5 million daily users

Flipboard has been a fixture on my iPad home screen ever since I first tried it, and was one of our picks for Best iPad Apps of 2011. I’m very proud that iPad Insight is featured in their Science & Tech section. Here’s hoping for many happy returns for the app
