The Times Launches Exclusive Royal Wedding Souvenir iPad Edition
LONDON, April 27, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- The Times has today launched an exclusive Royal Wedding Souvenir iPad Edition, which is available to preview free with the full application available on Saturday 30 April.
The Times Royal Wedding Souvenir Edition for the iPad brings together the best of our royal coverage in one collector's item. It puts our finest writing, interactive graphics, live reports and a large selection of photo albums in one sophisticated package.
The iPad app features top Times writers such as Ben Macintyre, Simon Barnes, Lynne Truss and Caitlin Moran, and brings together modern life, royal history and Times reporting in one edition that won't curl at the corners, or age too fast.
Features include: the Create-a-Kate fashion feature; a virtual fly-through of the procession route; Times royal wedding coverage since our first report in 1795; Derwent May's interactive nature guide to birds on the Mall and an animated guide to the lines of royal succession.
The app is free to Times digital subscribers. From today, subscribers can download the Times Royal Wedding Souvenir Edition from iTunes as part of their subscription. Non-subscribers can also download the free preview edition at the iTunes app store.
On April 30 the full edition will be available in all territories, updated with the best of our coverage of the wedding including video, photo galleries and interactive graphics. The full edition is again free for Times digital subscribers. Non-subscribers can purchase the full souvenir edition for 4.99 pounds. Internationally the app is priced at 5.99 Euros or 7.99 US Dollars.
A subscription to The Times and The Sunday Times costs 1 pound for the first 30 days, 2 pounds a week thereafter, and includes access to thetimes.co.uk and thesundaytimes.co.uk as well as The Times and Sunday Times iPad editions.
