National Post Launches Mobile App for Android
The National Post has launched its first Android app, available now for free in the Android Market. National Post Mobile for Android joins a growing suite of mobile news products and delivers the latest content from all of National Post’s core news channels, including the day’s top stories and business news from Financial Post. Android is a software system for mobile devices that includes an operating system, middleware and applications and was recently named the world’s best selling Smartphone platform.
“This is the first Android app from Postmedia, so we are very excited about it,” said Duncan Clark, Vice President of Digital Media, National Post. “Our readers want us to keep up with the latest innovation, so the introduction of this Android app helps us build upon the success of our iOS applications and continues to move us forward in our digital first strategy.”
The new Android app includes the following features:
- All of the award-winning reporting, engaging content and opinion National Post readers have come to rely on – updated throughout the day.
- Sharing – Readers can activate their preferred social media accounts and share stories.
- Offline reading – With a few clicks, readers can curate a custom list of selected stories for later reading or download all available content before hopping on the plane or subway to read later.
The app was designed for and is available on most Android devices. New features are planned for release in the coming months.
