The Financial Times has launched its fastFT service on the Samsung Gear S in its first venture into the wearables space.
The publisher has teamed up with technology provider Spritz to create the app, which will deliver a written content stream to users at a speed of their choosing. It’s the first deal with a publisher for Spritz, and the app will be available on Samsung’s freshly unveiled Samsung Gear S smartwatch.
John Riding, FT chief executive, said: “Streaming fastFT through Spritz on wearables gives our readers the opportunity to be first to try an innovative new method of reading.
