Dear readers,

Newsflash has been retired and no further updates will be published.

We hope you’ll replace Newsflash in your busy day with our improved flagship app, which works on tablet and mobile for iOS and Android.

iOS users, tap here to download it

In an upgraded version of the app to be released in coming days, the app opens with a section called Latest, giving you easy access to big news stories and important analysis during the day.

Just swipe once to read the stories that appeared on Page One of the newspaper and continue swiping for Nation and your other favourite print sections.

The new version will also include Comments for the first time. You’ll be able to have your say, read what subscribers are posting on the same story on the website and mobile site and respond to them without leaving the app.

In the spirit of Newsflash, we will introduce Briefing, a digest of must-read stories prepared by our editors and published three times each weekday. Briefings are designed to keep you informed on the go.

You will receive an alert from us when your Briefing is ready — at 7.30am (AEDT), noon and 5pm.

Finally, thank you for using Newsflash.
