What you need to know

The Rarible iPhone and iPad app is available for download from the App Store.
Despite having been available since August, Rarible has kept its app under wraps while working on it.
The app has gained new features including widgets.

Rarible, the NFT marketplace, has a new iPhone and iPad app for users to download. Actually, the app has been around for a few months but it's been in stealth mode — Rarible kept the app quiet despite it being in the App Store, allowing it to work on improvements until today. Now it's ready for prime time.

The new/old Rarible app has a few improvements to the version that's been hanging around for a while now. Those improvements include support for widgets, giving people a look at a random NFT every time they unlock their device.
