As we continue to bring you the latest from across Scotland on our website and social media platforms, you can now find out what’s going on in the country through another app you likely already have installed.

Our WhatsApp Community will bring you the latest news including breaking news, weather updates, travel disruptions and more directly to your phone’s home screen. The popular app is already used by millions in the UK, and we have now launched a news initiative to help you keep in the know.

WhatsApp Communities is a one-way communication method by which we are able to send these stories as WhatsApp messages - so they’ll flag up on your phone just like other messages you receive through the app.

If you have WhatsApp downloaded on your phone, you can join the The Scotsman’s WhatsApp community here.

And don’t worry, no one else in the community who isn’t already in your contacts won’t be able to see any of your details and you will only receive messages from us - the community admins. And we won’t be spamming you with endless messages either. Just the latest and best from across Scotland.

In order to join, you just need to click this link and you should be redirected to our WhatsApp Community. You won’t be able to call us through the phone number used on WhatsApp, so to get in touch you’ll need to email [email protected]

If for any reason you decide that you wish to leave the Community, you can do so by clicking on the name at the top of your screen and clicking 'Exit Group'. You can read our Privacy Notice here.

By subscribing to this WhatsApp Community Group, you agree that National World will process your personal data for the purpose of sending you communications via the WhatsApp Community group. Your personal data will not be visible to or shared with other subscribers, except for subscribers which are already saved to your contacts on the device you used to subscribe.
