With today’s release, there’s an exciting new way for people with shared interests to unite on Flipboard: private group magazines. Now you can collect stories together, and comment on them, in a closed setting. The uses for private group magazines are far and wide (and we’re sure we’re not even imagining all the creative ways you’ll use this feature). For example, you may be…
- at a company, where you want to share press coverage and customer feedback among your team
- a teacher who wants to collect articles with your class or fellow faculty
- a bride who wants to share dress ideas with your bridal party
- part of a book club
- someone who wants to share reunion photos and memories with the whole family

In addition, we’ve worked on making the entire experience of using group magazines better and more social (on iOS for now, Android coming soon).

- a new mail icon makes it clearer how to share stories
- topics can now be shared, along with magazines, of course
- your notifications are now grouped together so they’re easier to scan and respond to
