Google+ for iPhone, the official app of Google’s new social network has just hit the App Store.
Google+ for mobile makes sharing the right things with the right people a lot simpler. Huddle lets you send super-fast messages to the people you care about most. And no matter where you are, the stream lets you stay in the loop about what your friends are sharing and where they’re checking in.
Features:
Google+ is only available for users 13 and older.
Overall the app is clean and crisp, fully in keeping with Google’s new interest in design. The login experience, however, which throws you back to the terrible Google web page, burned my eyes. Hopefully they can fix that in an update. Soon.
It’s very Facebook for iPhone-like, which is good or bad depending on your stance re: consistency vs. innovation, but it works well and moves smoothly for the most part (I wish that hadn’t copied some of the more crashes…). The home screen isn’t full yet, with Stream (which apparently isn’t iOS 5 friendly), Huddle, Photos, Profile (Lion style circled avatar — who thought that was a good idea?), and Circles.
If you’ve tried it out, let me know what you think. And if you want to get plussy with me, you can circle me up here: https://plus.google.com/117367428086027724173/posts
