New mobile Flickr apps make capturing, sharing and discovering photos easier

Today, Flickr released new versions of its iPhone, iPod touch and Android apps to make it faster and easier to capture, share, and discover beautiful photos and videos.

Notable new features include:

• Capture and edit up to 30 seconds of HD video, using the same live filters available for photos, directly in the app.

• Smarter and faster search experience -- it could take up to three seconds per search in the past...now it takes 30 milliseconds.


• Simpler navigation tools and a redesigned photostream that makes it even easier to share to Twitter, Tumblr, and Facebook.

The new Flickr apps are free and available to download for Android in the Play Store, and rolling out for iPhone and iPod touch in the App Store. To learn more, check out Yahoo’s Tumblr post below or the Flickr blog here. Screenshots and videos are available here.
