Mine didn't update just yet.
I don't know how to get it to read in the store.
I will wait for another set of updates.

> Last week an e-mail was accidentally distributed stating that version 2.0 of
> our app was available for download from the Apple App Store. Today I have

> available in the App Store ready for download. Please read below for further

> We are pleased to announce that NFB-NEWSLINE® Mobile App 2.0 is now in the
> Apple App Store for you to download. We have made several improvements and
> smoothed out some of the bugs that appeared after the iOS 6.0 update was
> released by Apple. Now you should have a better user experience and access
> to some of the other information provided by NFB-NEWSLINE.
> Now you can receive your emergency weather alerts right on your iPhone with
> the NFB-NEWSLINE Mobile App. If there is a weather alert for your area, and
> your address and zip code is up to date on your NFB-NEWSLINE® account, you
> will hear a message saying “weather alert” when you launch your
> NFB-NEWSLINE® Mobile app, and you will feel your iPhone vibrate. Just
> double tap on the weather alert button when you hear the alert, and you can
> read the entire weather alert on your iPhone. Please keep in mind that only
> the iPhone will vibrate, since only the iPhone has the built-in vibration
> motor. Those of you running the NFB-NEWSLINE® Mobile App on an iPad or an
> iPod will only receive the voice alert without the vibration. If you want to
> get just the vibration alert without the voice alert, you can turn off the
> voice alert for weather alerts in the settings menu. If you need to update
> your address and zip code, you can call 1-866-504-7300, or e-mail
> <mailto:nfbnewsline-ios at nfb.org> nfbnewsline-ios at nfb.org.
> We have also added a Messages section, so that you may read the latest
> announcements and information that we post on NFB-NEWSLINE. We put up
> messages from time to time to inform our subscribers about latest
> enhancements and changes to NFB-NEWSLINE, and these can be read from the
> Messages section in the NFB-NEWSLINE® Mobile App. The Messages button will
> appear under the welcome message on your home screen. Please note that
> messages will only appear if you have active Internet service through a
> Wi-Fi connection or your mobile carrier. You can also read more extensively
> about these new changes and enhancements to NFB-NEWSLINE® in the Messages
> section.
> We have made other small improvements and changes to the NFB-NEWSLINE®
> Mobile App that will enhance your user experience. For example, now you can
> update your subscriptions in the subscriptions section without any problems,
> and the jump to channel on-screen keyboard in the TV listings has been
> improved so that now you get the numeric keypad when typing in a channel
> number instead of the full QWERTY keyboard.
> Once again, we would like to remind you that we have added two new
> publications in a new category labeled Breaking News Online. These are the
> Huffington Post, a very well-known online site, and CNN, which is part of
> Turner Broadcasting SystemÂ’s cable news network.
> The Breaking News Online category can be found by first selecting the
> Publications button off the home screen of the app, and then selecting
> Publication Options toward the bottom of the screen. Finally, select the
> Publication Groups button to see a list of available groups including the
> new Breaking News Online category. Optionally, to add the online breaking
> news publications to your favorites list or your subscriptions list on the
> NFB-NEWSLINE® App, just go to Settings, and then select either Manage
> Favorites or Manage Subscriptions, depending on which you want to add it to,
> then select either the Add to Favorites button at the bottom of the screen,
> or the Add to Subscriptions button, and pick the publication that you want
> to add from the list.
> In order to update your NFB-NEWSLINE® App, just go to the App store, then
> to the Updates tab, and you should see NFB-NEWSLINE® Mobile as one of the
> applications listed as ready to update. Select the update button, and it
> should start to download the new version of the app on to your device.
> Please enjoy the new enhancements to the NFB-NEWSLINE® Mobile App, and give
> us your feedback by e-mail at  <mailto:swhite at nfb.org> swhite at nfb.org, or
