THE DESCRIPTION:
This app features daily updates from Elle Canada magazine.
THE GOOD:
Check out brief tips, images and articles from Elle’s “Look of the Day,” “Shop the Look,” “Celeb Gossip,” and “Daily Horoscope” sections, all of which are updated daily. Browse products according to the daily look advice, or read the latest news about celebrities. You can customize which sections appear on your home page and bookmark anything you want to save.
THE BAD:
Today, “Michael Jackson insatiable for gay sex” was the top celebrity story available through the application – the celebrity gossip headlines here look a lot like tabloid headlines. You’re also looking at a much diminished version of the magazine content; five sections with around five items each hardly make up the full content of a magazine.
THE BOTTOM LINE:
If you aren’t satisfied by weekly magazines or online celebrity gossip alone, this application may be worth your time. Otherwise, you may find the Elle Canada app unnecessary. The daily updates are nice, but do you really need to know which nail color is best for every day? There aren’t very many magazine-sponsored apps, but try “Celeb Gossip” to focus more on celebrity news or “Style.com” for fashion content.
