UpdatesBadge MNNUpdate

Day 2 (or maybe 2.5) of the iPhone App Store, and I’ve just seen its Updates feature in action for the first time. 

As you’d expect, when there is an update available, it shows you the little red number badge on its home screen icon to indicate that an update is available - as shown in the screenshot above left.  In this case it is the AP’s Mobile News Network that has been updated.

It’s nice to see that you can tap to see the contents of the update (see the screencap on the right) to help decide whether / how quickly you may want to apply the update.

Also good to see Mobile News Network updated so quickly and adding some new news sections.
