The free-to-download app, which was launched on October 2, has already been downloaded 1,000 times, according to an MEN report.
MEN, which has a mobile site, will tap into smartphone users with the app and also encourage users to share news items on Twitter and Facebook.
A short video of the app, which was developed by Spreed Inc – who also created Canadian newspaper the Globe and Mail’s iPhone app, can be seen below:
