Redesigned Digg iOS app downloads stories before you leave the house

[![Digg iOS app gets redesigned, downloads stories before you leave the house][1] ][2]

Launching alongside the monochrome hues of Digg's site [redesign][3], its iOS app has been given a similarly-colored treatment. The update is available to download now and adds several mobile-centric features, including offline reading. [Under new ownership][4], Digg's renovated app plays nice with both [Facebook][5] and [Twitter][6], while a new 'Paperboy' feature will detect when you're at home (once calibrated) and help ensure you never leave the front door with old news. However, you'll have to be willing to hook up your Facebook account to bookmark and share between your phone and the standalone homepage. There's also no sign of a corresponding Android version just yet, but you can take the iOS app (and the refreshed site) for a spin at the sources below.
