NYTimes for Android updated for tablets, scales for different screen sizes

[![NYTimes for Android updated for tablets, scales for different screen sizes](http://www.blogcdn.com/www.engadget.com/media/2012/12/nytimesandroidtabs.jpg) ](http://www.engadget.com/2012/12/11/nytimes-for-android-update-tablets/)

First [Flipboard](http://www.engadget.com/2012/06/25/the-new-york-times-is-coming-to-flipboard-thursday/), then an [experimental iPad app](http://www.engadget.com/2012/10/02/new-york-times-releases-experimental-html5-ipad-app-puts-twit/), _then _a [Windows 8 app](http://www.engadget.com/2012/10/25/new-york-times-releases-windows-8-app-for-all-the-news-thats-fi/) and now, here comes the [NYTimes](http://i.engadget.com/tag/NyTimes/) optimized for Android tablets. That last bit says it all, as the Grey Lady's digital gurus have re-worked the application allowing _all the news that's fit to print_ to now scale natively for different screen sizes. The update also brings with it a few minor tweaks, giving users greater control over how they receive "Breaking News" alerts, a new, quick preview window from within Top News, as well as delivering a host of the requisite bug fixes and performance enhancements. You can grab it now from the Google Play link at the source below.
