Alloy Gets Peek and Pop, Reads the News
Alloy’s latest update has just hit the App Store, adding new features and functionality that will allow you to automate everyday tasks faster than ever before.
If you’re running Apple’s latest and greatest iPhone hardware, you’ll be happy to know that Alloy supports new 3D Touch actions. You can peek and pop to activate actions, open folders, and access action directory entries. But don’t worry, even if you don’t carry an iPhone 6s in your pocket, Alloy’s latest update has some new tricks for you to try out.
Alloy now features RSS support. It comes pre-installed with new tasks and actions that are able to load feeds, open the news, edit news feeds, and even speak the news. The team also added support for FTP for cloud download and upload tasks, and have created a whole bunch of new actions like the ability to upload videos, create timers, calculate travel time to contacts, speak clipboard content, and a whole bunch more.
