As loyal readers of The Canberra Times, you told us you wanted a news app. You wanted a better mobile reading experience. A live news feed. A better digital version of Today's Paper.
We listened. And after more than six months of development and testing we are delighted to be launching our brand new app with all these features, and more.
The Canberra Times news app is now officially live on both iOS and Android devices. It is available for download in the Apple Store and Google Play.
In line with your feedback, the app also provides readers with faster-loading articles and live feeds for your favourite content sections.
To make the user experience even better, the app allows for offline reading, which means you can download the headlines or Today's Paper at home and then read them wherever you are, whether that is on your morning commute, at the coffee shop or while you are enjoying your summer break at the beach.
An improved puzzles section now includes a medium and hard sudoku, a codeword, a splitword, a cryptic crossword and a regular crossword. Jigsaws are coming soon too. For readers who enjoy playing our existing selection of online puzzles, these will still be available to access on our website using mobile or desktop devices.
Canberra Times managing editor John-Paul Moloney said today's app launch would deliver even better value for subscribers.
"Our readers have been asking for a new app for The Canberra Times for a long time and we are delighted that we can now finally provide subscribers with a faster and cleaner reader experience. It means readers can stay up to date with Canberra news wherever they are."
The Canberra Times app is available to our digital subscribers only. New subscribers can sign up in the app or direct on our website.
Puzzles and Today's Paper are available to premium subscribers only. Basic subscribers can upgrade to a premium subscription by signing into My Account on our website and select the option "Change subscription plan".
We will be monitoring reader feedback during the coming weeks and months and will continue to listen to feedback from our readers.
Please email feedback@canberratimes.com.au with any thoughts or suggestions. Of course, if you love the new app please give us a five-star rating in the App Store and let your friends know about it.
Thanks for reading The Canberra Times. We love our new app, and we think you will too.
Download the app now on your iOS device or on your Android device.
