The Sunday Times Launches New Android Tablet App

LONDON, August 30, 2011/PRNewswire/ --

    This week The Sunday Times' award-winning app edition becomes available
for the first time on Android tablet devices. The new Android tablet app is
the latest addition to The Sunday Times' digital portfolio, following the
hugely successful Sunday Times iPad app, which has been voted Newspaper App
of the Year* and the World's No.1 Newspaper and Magazine app**.

    The new Android tablet app includes all 12 sections of Britain's biggest
and best-selling quality newspaper, with exclusive video and stunning
photography, interactive graphics, high definition slideshows plus live and
updated news and sport results.

    Tristan Davies, Executive Editor of The Sunday Times says, 'We are
delighted to launch our full app edition in the Android Marketplace. The
Sunday Times Android tablet edition has all the qualities of design and
interactivity that have made our iPad edition the world's leading newspaper
and magazine app. Now owners of Galaxies, Xooms and other Android Honeycomb
devices can enjoy a fully immersive, page-turning reading experience
designed specifically for touch-screen tablets.'

    The Android tablet app is available via The Times and Sunday Times
newspaper and digital subscription packages. The digital subscription is
