Yahoo Finance unveils redesigned app

Robby Stein, director of product management at Yahoo, writes about its redesigned application for Yahoo FInance.

Stein writes:

For Android devices, our team rebuilt the app from the ground up, bringing you a new home experience organized around your stock quotes and company news. The new app also delivers push notifications about relevant breaking news and provides enhanced interactive charts for any quote.
