As the number of people accessing BBC News via mobile phones and tablet devices continues to grow, I'm pleased to report that we have just launched a new version of the BBC News app specifically aimed at large Android tablets. (There's already an app for iPad and smaller 7 inch Android devices.)

In an average week, the BBC News site and apps are currently visited by about 9.7m users worldwide, or about 26% of the total. There are more details here from our Product Manager for mobiles, Kate Milner.

Steve Herrmann is editor of the BBC News website.
