Guardian launches new BlackBerry app

The Guardian has launched a news app for the new BlackBerry 10 platform.

According to the Guardian blog: “We're pleased to announce that the Guardian will be available to BlackBerry users with the launch of our app for the new BlackBerry Z10 smartphone.

Available to download free of charge from BlackBerry World, the Guardian app will allow users to read the latest news, sport, comment and reviews, watch videos, listen to podcasts and browse stunning picture galleries while on the move.

In addition to the standard features included in the existing Android and iOS Guardian news apps, the new app incorporates BlackBerry-specific functionality such as 'Peek' and 'Flow' and BlackBerry Messenger (BBM) integration for sharing. And for our US users, there is the option to select the US edition of the Guardian. A full list of features and further information is available in the FAQs.

The app has been built by DevelopIQ using the Guardian content API.

Designed by the Guardian Digital Agency, the app for BlackBerry 10 smartphones is a slight departure from the style of the Guardian's existing Android and iOS apps, and more in line with our new responsive mobile site.

We are delighted to be part of the BlackBerry 10 launch.”
