VG+ is Norways biggest and most complex iPad project. Together with VG Mobil, Agens have built a whole new publishing- and rendering platform to present digital news in a subtle and tactile manner.

The VG+ solution consists of an ambitious, scalable and flexible news engine- all made available in a handy, lightweight app. Fast downloads, huge galleries, smart ad management, a rich visual presentation with lots of template-based layout variation, smooth interaction and intelligent cache solutions altogether make VG+ a step forward in digital news platform design.

VG Pluss users can store different editions offline, share interesting articles with others and read old editions. It is also possible to adjust text size with the dynamic page rendering engine. The backend of VG Pluss is directly linked to VG’s own publishing suite. The editorial staff also have access to an especially- developed preview application which enables them to see 1:1 how the different articles will look before they get published. VG+ was the first daily news application in the world with a rich and varied template-based presentation for both landscape and portrait mode.

VG+ was awarded with a bronze medal during Gulltaggen 2011 in Norway. It is also nominated in the ”Biggest Innovation” category at Mediedagene 2011.
