NORTH AUGUSTA, S.C.---News 12 recently launched our very own iPhone application. You may have noticed the "iPhone" link in the "12 Anywhere" menu already. You can read the latest news, sports, and weather headlines and get your local forecast. And now you can watch News 12 videos in the iPhone app too.

Videos are presented in a separate "Video" tab in a list. Tap the name of a video and it will load and play similarly to how videos play in your iPhone's YouTube application. If you're on wi-fi, video quality is quite high.

Click here for information on how to download and install our iPhone application.
