To kick off the new year in style, we have launched the Nursing Times app, in recognition that your laptop may not always be in reach, but you are almost certain to have your mobile phone nearby.
By downloading the new Nursing Times app, you will be able to access all the latest news, views and clinical articles, just like you can already on your desktop, laptop or tablet.
These will include daily updates on key nursing issues such as workforce, education, regulation, patient care, policy and leadership, as well as weekly peer-reviewed clinical practice articles.
In addition, you will find opinions and reflections written by nurses, midwives, students and other members of the nursing family across a whole range of themes.
First up, when you open the app, you will be greeted by our highlighted articles, which are a mix of picks chosen specially by our editors and by our AI-powered tools based on your search profile.
This highlights section, which we are especially excited about, is what sets the Nursing Times app apart from most other content apps that you will have encountered before.
As well perusing the day’s highlighted articles, you can use the app explore the rest of our content in familiar list form by using the ‘latest’ tab at the top and bottom of the app screen.
This will give you access to everything else. For example, you can refine your search to scroll through all of our current articles on the ‘home’ screen or, if you prefer, just our ‘clinical’ or ‘news’ articles.
Similarly, you can choose to look at all of our content on a particular ‘topic’ by accessing our topics menu in the top-right corner of the app screen. If you are a student, simply click on the ‘student’ tab.
You can also use the app to find out about upcoming Nursing Times events, such as the 2026 Student Nursing Times Awards, which is currently open for entries until 23 January, or our new Nursing Leaders 2026 conference and expo.
Whether you want a quick update during a shift or deeper reading on your day off, having the Nursing Times app in your pocket will help you stay informed with ease.
Available for iPhone or Android, to download the Nursing Times app, simply head to the App Store or Play Store and search for ‘Nursing Times’. It really is that simple.
Naturally, existing Nursing Times subscribers will have universal access to the app in the same way that they do to the Nursing Times website.
But to celebrate the launch of the Nursing Times app, everyone can access it all for free until 12 January 2026 – why wait, download it now and get exploring.
