Bloomberg today announced that its award-winning Bloomberg Businessweek+ App is now available on the iPhone and iPod touch. Bloomberg also announced that the Bloomberg Businessweek+ App for iPad, launched back in April 2011, has now surpassed 100K subscribers. The app has helped Bloomberg broaden its reach globally with 35 percent of subscribers residing outside of the United States.

“Many of our readers own an iPhone so delivering an optimal experience and lightning fast downloads of magazine issues is critical. With the app, it takes 3 minutes or less on a 3G connection to download an entire issue to the iPhone or iPad.” said Oke Okaro, general manager and global head of Bloomberg mobile.

Each of these apps has won one or more prestigious awards including Bloomberg Radio+ being selected by Apple as the Best Finance App of 2011.”
