Fast, feature-packed and easy to use - they’re just some of the features of our popular smartphone and tablet app.
Downloadable from your app store (Android version here and iOS version here) our app bundles our award-winning coverage of news, sport, lifestyle, entertainment, opinion and analysis into a format purpose-built for your mobile phone or tablet.
It’s a great way to read your favourite news stories from our award-winning team of journalists who keep you across the latest local, state, national and international news.
Subscribers get full digital access to all content from Queensland’s leading source of news in a digital format which is easy to consume - and customise.
You can tailor topics around individual preferences - you might like NRL, but aren’t passionate about AFL - and the app allows you to include news from one of those codes and exclude the other.
It’s easy to adjust font size, you can log in using touch ID or even your face via the app’s biometric authentication features (if your mobile devices has those features) and it’s easy to navigate.
The app also has an easy-select option allowing you to sign up to our automated alerts - you can choose from any of the following: breaking news, sport, entertainment, business and lifestyle - or all of them.
It also offers similar functionality for our newsletters - to ensure you don’t miss out on the news of the day.
Users can choose from our Latest News & COVID-19 Update newsletters, our Weekly Lifestyle Update, Community newsletters from our Quest news team (three times a week), our popular NRL Inside Mail, Business Daily, Weekly Editor’s Edition and our Truce Crime Australia newsletter every Friday.
As well as being a great way to keep up with the latest news, the app’s also a great way to spend time on traditional newspaper favourites like crosswords, sudoku and horoscopes.
Just tap on the menu at the bottom right of the home screen, and choose from games, comics and horoscopes.
You’ve got four levels of Sudoku to choose from, a cryptic crossword and a quick crossword for when you’re short on time.
If you’re looking for a laugh your comics include reader favourites like Calvin and Hobbes, Dilbert, and Garfield.
Many of our readers enjoy podcasts and our app includes an easy-to-access podcast section where you can browse our wide selection.
Recent subscriber favourites include On Guard - Stories From Inside Australia’s Toughest Prisons, The Night Driver, The Matty Johns Podcast and our Courier-Mail News Feed which includes our latest headlines.
As well as offering a great reading experience for stories on the app, for a traditional view of our daily newspapers just tap on Today’s Paper at the bottom of the home screen.
You’ll get a full digital replica of today’s newspaper - complete with liftouts and magazines - and the ability to scroll through two weeks of back issues.
You can also download editions and add them to your library to read later.
The app is a great way to read stories written by journalists who understand Queensland through decades of experience: State Affairs Editor Steven Wardill knows politics like no-one else, Michael Madigan, a veteran of the industry, travels around the state highlighting key regional issues, and writers like Frances Whiting and Kylie Lang tell very special stories in special ways.
Sports reporters like Peter Badel and Travis Meyn routinely break the big stories in rugby league, while business writers including Anthony Marx and Glen Norris will keep you across Queensland’s corporate world.
Our crime and courts coverage is unrivalled, with exclusives from veterans Kate Kyriacou and Tom Chamberlin and court stories from Vanda Carson, Kay Dibben, Vanessa Marsh and Patrick Billings.
If you enjoy dining out or follow the food scene, Anooska Tucker-Evans’ restaurant reviews and industry articles are must-reads.
A subscription to couriermail.com.au also provides superb local coverage through our network of Quest reporters - download our app and read their texclusive courts, council, development and crime coverage, while our network of regional mastheads across the state ensure that if something’s happening between Cape York and Coolangatta, we’ve got it covered.
