The only feature I would love to see added is the ability to share articles via Twitter. I hope to cancel my SCMP subscription this year end as this app have made my HK news browsing a lot easier.

Phase In
The Standard is really surpassing SCMP in innovation. Apart from the classified, getting access to the 1st free English newspaper is easier now with iPad & iPhone apps. I bought an iPad partly because I could read the paper as it's not easy to get the paper in my area.This app is not as accessible as the iPad version but considering the screen limitation, organization is good although it will take a bit of navigation. If you know what you want to read, this is the mobile news app for HK English readers.
