WASHINGTON — Starting at 9:15 a.m. today, when the White House releases President Barack Obama’s proposed spending plan for fiscal 2013, budget geeks across the country will be able to download it on their iPhones, Androids, BlackBerrys and other smartphones.
The app will give users access to text and images in one of the budget’s four volumes, the 216-page book with the president’s budget message, his priorities and overviews of the spending plans of each federal agency. The rest can be read on mobile devices through online links to the government’s digital data system.
For budget aficionados, the free app is a better deal than the printed page, which costs $218 for a four-volume set.
