If any of you remember The Daily iPad app, then you remember this: the first iOS app to be a true exclusive newspaper of the digital age, and the first to have in-app purchasing. Well, today some stats about The Daily has reached the blogosphere, and it turns out it gathered 800,000 downloads for the first quarter of operations with $10 million in losses in that same period of time. Keep in mind before launch The Daily used $30 million for it’s development. This also doesn’t mean we can’t pass judgement yet, as News Corp. is committed to bringing the app to Android tablets and mentions it’s still a work-in-progress, but as it seems for now, the app’s unperfected design and function may be talking a toll on its possible success.
