TED’s iPad app, now with AirPlay

Version 1.3 of the TED iPad app went live this afternoon, adding a much-requested feature: AirPlay support, so you can wirelessly stream content from the TED iPad app over to an Apple TV. We’d also love to point out a few updates we did in version 1.2 in response to user requests — adding email, Twitter and Facebook sharing of your favorite talks, and removing the limit on Saved Talks. We’ve got some other features in the works, and we’d love to hear your suggestions — either by emailing contact@ted.com or commenting below.

Any chance we’ll see an android/honeycomb compatible version of this AP soon? I’ve looked at the third party apps but they weren’t woking/working well with the xoom.

I played with it. Good stuff! Keep coming up with it. I love it. Oh, I agree subtitles would be nice.

Any idea why the AirPlay selector icon isn’t showing up on my iPad when i view a TED video? Other airplay apps work fine on my iPad1/AppleTV2 setup. Thanks!

  I’d really like to be able to sync content between the TED iPad app and iTunes …

I think the iPad app is great. One enhancement would be being able to log in to my Ted.com account in the app so I can see my Favorites from the web site in the app. Thanks!

Add a “Watch Later” option. I don’t want to designate something as a favorite until I watch it. (I’m making a statement about me with “Favorite”!) And yet, I do want the ability to highlight sessions for watching later. If I’m missing something, please point it out.
