In this app, you also have access to two unique features, User Generated Content and Augmented Reality scanning capability.

What is User Generated Content (UGC)? --
You as a consumer can now submit stories and content, including videos, audio, images and GPS locations. You can become a journalist on the go! Your stories will be submitted to a secure dashboard, where the newspaper will monitor and review which content they can use.

What is Augmented Reality (AR)? --
An enhanced version of reality where live direct or indirect views of physical real-world environments are augmented with superimposed computer-generated images over a user’s view of the real-world, thus enhancing one’s current perception of reality.

Look out for images in print with the Augmented Reality logo and scan the image for an exciting digital experience.
