HKFP has relaunched its Android and Apple mobile apps, allowing for more convenient access to our news updates. And thanks to the Greatfire Appmaker project, we are also launching a special downloadable app which will make HKFP viewable in China, where the site is censored.

Download our apps for AndroidApple iOS, and Windows – free to access wherever you are.

You can also download a special APK installer file for Android devices to be used wherever HKFP is censored. The file can be shared over email, instant messaging, portable drive, or file sharing sites to friends and family inside China’s “great firewall.” The app includes built-in circumvention and will work without a VPN. (Please note that some devices may initially raise a security alert or require settings to be adjusted in order to allow installations from “unknown sources.”)
