The Flipboard app is getting a big expansion today, with local news coverage now available in more than 1,000 cities and towns — compared to just 60 metro areas back in October.

The company behind the combination news aggregation app that also acts as a social magazine said that, starting today, Flipboard users in the US and Canada who update to the latest version of the app will be prompted to enable their location. Once they do, they’ll see up to 15 relevant regional and local topics, and after the user selects cities and topics of interest, Flipboard will add those topics to the “Following” tab. The latest stories from the relevant local news sources will then show up in the user’s “For You” feed.
