Flipboard: Create your own magazines on your Android smartphone

With the Android app Flipboard you can create your own magazines from interesting articles. We'll show you how it works.

Create your own magazines in Flipboard for Android

In Flipboard you put together an extensive magazine from numerous individual articles. You can then share the posts with friends. For example, if you want to design a recipe collection, simply summarize the appropriate feeds. The option for this is somewhat hidden:

1. Open any article in Flipboard - either via your news streams or via the red bookmark and the different sections under "Discover more".
2. If you have found an article that you want to save in your magazine, tap the plus symbol at the bottom right.
3. In the new window, swipe right once over the note.
4. Now give the new magazine a name. You can also select a category from the drop-down menu. Optionally add a description to your magazine.
5. If you do not want to make your magazine public, remove the tick from the checkbox at the bottom of the pop-up window.
6. Finally, tap "Create" in the top right corner.
7. In the next window you can share your magazine on different social channels or add more articles.

Add more articles to your own magazines

You can find your own magazines under "My Flipboard" above your subscriptions. You can add more articles at any time:

1. Find the item you want and tap the plus symbol at the bottom right of the display.
2. Select the desired magazine in the overview.
3. Then confirm with a touch on "Add" at the top left.
4. Alternatively, you can create a new magazine directly from this window by tapping the empty button next to your existing magazines.

You can also share interesting articles and magazines on social channels.
