It features real-time breaking alerts, a digital replica of Today’s Paper, and extensive Australian Rules Football (AFL) reporting.

The app also includes podcasts, videos, and interactive puzzles, catering to a diverse audience of residents and sports enthusiasts. It is compatible with iPhone, iPad, and Apple Watch, requiring iOS 15.0 or later for optimal use.
