Version 6.3 has the flatter design and color scheme that many iOS apps have adopted since Apple released iOS 7 in September.

The updated Target app has been optimized for in-store shopping, with improvements to the shopping list functions,  store locators, and inventory check. Swipe gestures have also been added to improve usability.

A few beta features available in select locations have also been introduced, including floor plans that’ll help you locate products in-store, as well as the ability to check if a product is available in your closest Target retailer.

With the holiday shopping season quickly approaching, the update is sure to help make Black Friday shopping a bit less hectic.
