Of course I am biased, I write for The Guardian Apps Blog afterall, but this long awaited iPad version is truly magnificent. It’s a free download from the App Store, or at least this app gives you access to 86 issues for free, after that there’s a monthly subscription charge of $13.99 in the US or £9.99 in the UK. There will be six issues available everyweek, The Guardian is not published on Sundays by the way.
Click here to download this app for free.
The app is nicely laid out with thirteen sections to choose from. You don’t have to swipe all over the place with this app, just swipe up to two times to view all the available articles.
Last but not least, The Guardian is part of Newsstand and will automatically download each day. Perfect – now let’s put the kettle on…
