Description
See what you want, when you want
When you open up the Los Angeles Times for iPhone app, content is made available to you by section. But what if you're not interested in Sports or World News? What if you want Business News shown first? Simply go into the Settings screen and choose ‘Reorder sections.’ Here you can reorder and turn off sections as you wish while always having the option to change them again later.
Keep your favorites, forever
Find a great story that you want to come back to later? See an amazing photo that you want to view again? With the Los Angeles Times for iPhone app, keeping your favorite content easily accessible is a click away. Once your content is saved, it's on your app until you take it off.
Share with your friends and family
The Los Angeles Times for iPhone app has built-in sharing with today’s most popular social media platforms (Facebook and Twitter) and also allows you to access your address book and share content via e-mail.
Take us wherever you go, no connection required
Many apps fail when a network isn’t available. The Los Angeles Times for iPhone app was designed for people who sometimes go where the signal can’t. While you won’t get the latest news when a connection isn’t available, you will have the most recently downloaded information in the app and all your saved items right there with you.
Great photography ahead
One of the greatest things about the Los Angeles Times is our award-winning photojournalism. This app highlights that work in our custom-built Galleries area. You’ll be able to browse photos by section and peek into dozens of collections before launching a slideshow.

Customer Reviews
Don't Buy!
The latest version has been ruined by ads on every story. The ads are not static, they change as you try to read the story. They are VERY distracting. I will delete this version and hopefully I have the last version saved on my computer. LA Times has ruined a great app.
Ads on a paid app?
Since this is a paid app, I find the ads for the print edition of the paper that pop up on every story infuriating.
Finally The LA Times "Gets It"
The old Tribune LA Times app was frankly, as has beeen pointed out. a bit of a joke. As an example of how not to "do" a newspaper app it was probably the shining example. Then the print edition of the Times dragged itself kicking and screaming into the 21st century and finally the app itself. This new app is clear aand concise and can be re-ordered to suit reading prefences. It also enables caching for off-line browsing. At $1.99 it's a steal - at last a copy of the Times I can take with me without transferring the print from the paper to my hands - highly recommended!
