( Mashable ) -- The world 's largest professional social network just got a wider reach -- and it wants to be in front of your face for more of the day . LinkedIn launched its long-awaited iPad app late Wednesday , along with revamped versions of its iPhone and Android apps . Redesigned from the ground up , the tablet version looks nothing like the LinkedIn website ; it 's more akin to a social news aggregator . `` This was a chance to go back to the drawing board , '' says Mario Sundar , LinkedIn 's social media manager . `` To design it for how people use the iPad : morning and night infotainment . '' The app 's main screen is a clean , simple interface with just three options : updates , profile and inbox . The latter two are self-explanatory , although it 's worth mentioning that the list of people who 've looked at your profile -- a voyeuristic option hidden deep on the website -- is front and center here . It 's `` updates '' where the app shines , and turns into a kind of socially-enhanced Flipboard . You see stories your friends have shared , beautifully laid out , alongside such nuggets of news as which of your friends have changed their jobs recently . ( Download it in the app store here . ) The app also pulls in details of the day ahead from your Google Calendar or Exchange calendar . LinkedIn expects you 'll use it over breakfast , when you 're torn between work and news , as well as take it to meetings . It 's been a long time coming -- longer even than the much-delayed Facebook iPad app . LinkedIn has 150 million users , and the iPad is the fastest growing device on the network . More than 22 % of LinkedIn traffic comes from mobile devices ; a year ago , that figure was 8 % . What do you make of the LinkedIn iPad app ? Will you use it ? Let us know in the comments .
