CNN has announced the availability of the international version of the CNN App on the App Store. Available free of charge to users outside of the U.S., the international version of the CNN App is purpose-built and designed to provide a visually-driven news experience for iPhone and iPod touch users who demand accessibility and convenience.

Maximising the revolutionary features of iOS 4, the CNN App features push notification; regionalisation and personalisation tools; and more.
