New Yorkers can now have the city's finest in the palm of their hand with a new app available for iPhones and iPads.

The New York City Police Department's free app is simply called "NYPD" and lets users read breaking news and view the same alerts that are released to the media.

Users can also submit tips, see crime statistics and browse the department's wanted gallery.

The app is currently available on iTunes.

A version for Android should be out later this year.
