The app comes with a free starter pack of images, users then have the option of downloading further content via SMS payments.

The one-shot, which hits newsstands on 17th November, is a beautiful 100 page celebration of the girls who grace the pages of Nuts every week. The special collector's edition, printed on a high grade of paper stock to add to its premium feel, has a spectacular cast list. Celebrities featured include Gemma Merna and Jorgie Porter from Hollyoaks, Dancing On Ice's Jennifer Metcalfe and sexy sisters Sam and Billie Faiers from The Only Way Is Essex. They join Lucy Pinder, Sophie Howard and Nuts favourite Rosie Jones to complete a who's who of British modelling talent.

These exciting new brand extensions tap into our audiences' appetite to consume more of our core content in different ways and on different platforms. The app builds on the success of our mobile optimised site for those who like to get Nuts on-the-go, whereas the one-shot gives fans a collectable, premium Nuts experience in print."
