Check out the new features available on the NZ Herald app!
We've just made it easier for you to access the NZ Herald's very best journalism.
As the NZ Herald celebrates the Triple Crown of journalism at the annual Voyager Media Awards - Website of the Year, Newspaper of the Year and Best News Website/App - its world-class journalism is now accessible on the Herald app.
New Zealand Herald Premium - the Herald's digital subscription service that gives you access to the best journalism locally and internationally - has previously only been available on the app to signed-up subscribers.
Now every app user has access to expanded business, political and investigative journalism, insightful analysis and commentary from our journalists in newsrooms across the country.
In just its first year, more than 46,000 people have signed up to NZ Herald Premium.
You can choose from all the big areas like Premium, latest news, business, politics, sport and lifestyle - and you can add and remove other topics that interest you. These options include sections such as small business to sailing, and from education to the environment.
And you can now receive news alerts by topics of interest – including sport, politics and business - and by locations across New Zealand.
Subscribers can also save stories to read offline.

The additional features further enhance our new app, which launched in February and showcases first-class content across the NZ Herald and wider NZME stable, including our regional titles the Northern Advocate, Bay of Plenty Times, Rotorua Daily Post, Hawke's Bay Today and Whanganui Chronicle.
Our Premium journalism sits proudly alongside a selection of exclusive content from some of the world's rock star publishers - The New York Times, the Financial Times, The Times of London, and the Harvard Business Review.
Premium has never been more vital - at a time when audiences are turning to the Herald in record numbers, the media has never been under greater financial pressure.
"In this time of crisis, we know that you need quality, credible information now more than ever - and we are proud to deliver that," said Herald Premium Content Editor Miriyana Alexander.
"But it is not cheap to fund quality journalism - it takes time, resource and effort to expose the truth, make a difference and fight on behalf of the public.
"Digital subscriptions have opened up a new revenue stream for us to help fund the future of quality journalism, just as our loyal print subscribers have done for the last 150 years. Herald Premium subscribers are helping us tell the stories that matter."
If you're already an NZ Herald Premium subscriber - thank you, your support helps sustain our journalism and is deeply appreciated.
