Pulse by Alphonso Labs Inc is a news, magazine, blog, and social reader for your iOS device.

Most RSS feeds give you boring headlines, whereas Pulse give you streams that include photos to grab your attention. This app may not be suitable for people who follow tons of feeds, but is amazing for those who are interested in a small number.

You can choose the stories, read them, and share them all from one place. You can read from social networks, blogs, and news as well as YouTube, Tumblr, Instagram, Reddit, and Flickr.

With a Pulse account, you can have your sources sync across all your devices if you choose. You can sync your favorite stories to Read Later, Reader, Evernote, or Instapaper.

Once you load the stories to Pulse you can read them anywhere, even if you don’t have Internet. The app is also integrated with Reader, so you can import all of your feeds directly from there into Pulse.

If you choose, you can subscribe to Premium Content where your credit card will be charged once a month through iTunes.

Pulse was updated to Version 3.0.3 on December 11, 2012. The update allows users to access UK content. This version has 444 customer ratings with an average of 4.5 out of five stars.

This is a fantastic app. I like how you can add content from any source and have everything in one place.
