The popular iOS application, Boxcar, has recently received a great new update. Now, users of the app can take advantage of the Retina display, a centralized inbox, and a great new look!
If you're not familiar with Boxcar, the idea behind the app is simple. For free, Boxcar gives users push notifications for Twitter, Facebook, email, and a variety of other services. I've been using Boxcar for a while now, and I have to say: it rocks.
And, following Boxcar's latest update (to version 4.0), I now love the app even more. Obviously, Retina-optimized graphics aren't really necessary, since the app's main goal is to add a push notification service to your iDevice. However, it's nice to have a Retina-optimized icon for those times when you actually need to jump into Boxcar's settings.
In addition to Retina-opimization, Boxcar now also supports Google Buzz and Google Voice. Other new features include more alert settings, and bug fixes.
If you're not familiar with Boxcar, you should definitely check it out. After all, the application is free - and it's incredibly handy to at least have push notifications for Twitter. Check it out, and let us know your thoughts in the comments below!
