The Financial Times has announced that it will not implement Apple's In-App Subscriptions and has released a new web app tailored for iOS users.

We have launched a new, faster, more complete app for the iPad and iPhone which is available via your browser rather than from an app store. We're encouraging our readers to switch immediately to the new FT web app, as many new features and sections will be added over the coming weeks. Make sure you don't miss out on these updates.

A better, faster app
Using the new app has a number of benefits:
● Web browser access – No download needed
● Automatic enhancements – No need to visit an app store for the latest version
● Reading offline – The latest edition is automatically stored for offline access
● Speed – Improved performance on most connections
● Greater range of content – Including video on iPhone

Go to app.ft.com on your iDevice to access the new application.
