The new cloud app player has a revamped WebKit-based web browser for in-app link access and a new user interface with streamlined navigation.

Other features include improved sharing features, access to more Internet radio stations and podcasts (including Pandora, SHOUTcast, iheartradio), a new event scheduling service and ability to customized chumby content without a computer.
