The Guardian ICONThe Guardian Anywhere app gives you the acclaimed Guardian newspaper offline and out of network range with this original but official application for UK newspaper of the same name. It provides all the latest stories and galleries from the Guardian and Observer newspapers, downloaded overnight, ready for reading on your “network challenged” commute. You can install this application both on Android Smartphones and Tablets.

Join the conversation: view, recommend, share and submit comments, it is by this reason the Guardian won an award in multimedia content with videos, podcasts and stunning picture galleries.

Customizable, easy to use and containing a useful favorites section, this news app has been a long time coming from a paper who have extensively embraced online news provision. There are additional picture galleries included and the app is regularly updated. A long time coming, but at least worth the wait.

The Guardian UI is great and moving between pages is smooth and, while not perhaps as glossy and buttery as some of the multi-source news aggregation such as Pulse, it’s still nice to use and responsive. The menu option available on these list screens lets you jump to a wider list of sections, making navigation simpler still.
