Have a tablet or a smartphone? Then you need to check out "App Central."

"App Central" is a new 30-minute co-production that will air weekly on BNN and CP24, the first of its kind to exclusively cover apps and app development. The series will be co-hosted by Amber MacArthur and Michael Hainsworth, with reporter Kris Abel interviewing the movers and shakers in the industry.

Starting today, view the trailer at www.appcentral.ca, followed by the BNN broadcast premiere on Tuesday, March 29 at 8 p.m. ET on BNN and April 3 at 10:30 a.m. ET on CP24.

Amber MacArthur, or as she's known online, "AmberMac," is a popular face on tech TV, and is widely known for her show "Webnation," and her bestselling book "Power Friending." Michael Hainsworth is also well known across CTV, from his regular appearances on "The Business News," "The Close," and network newscasts across the country. Kris Abel is one of the leading tech journalists in Canada, covering internet-related subjects since 2002 on CTV's Canada AM.

The series will feature the hosts getting their hands on the latest mobile gear, while also interviewing industry luminaries within Toronto's rapidly emerging tech scene. There will also be "streeters" to find out what's on the public's smartphones, as well as an inside look at celebs' favourite apps.

MacArthur will be looking at things from the social media angle, while Hainsworth (taking his tie off) will be looking for the "gee-whiz" factor. Beyond just showing apps, the hosts also promise that they'll be giving viewers the tools to build their own apps, or apps for teaching or entertaining children.

"It's a fun and adventurous look at the world of apps. You name it, there's an app for it. We like to think apps are the key for us to explore the world," says Abel.

"There's so many apps out there, how are you going to know which ones you want to check out? That's where the show comes into play… we wade through the noise. Do you really want to check out all 42 different fart apps to find out which one is the best one? We'll make sure you know which one is the best one" says Hainsworth.

"I think we also touch on mobile lifestyle as well, so beyond apps we'll talk about accessories, and everything from cases to trench coats where you can stash your gadgets," says MacArthur.

"Kris has the unique ability to find the coolest gadgets, and so we'll be able to take a look at them, and in the process not kill him. Some of them are crazy!" adds Hainsworth.

So what is an app anyways?

"It's not just software of course, that has to be powered by cool hardware and technology. A lot of what we're looking at is change. It's exciting and really compelling. A big part of that change is that relationship between what's happening with smartphones and tablets, but also the change of what people are expressing through apps," says Abel.

"We'll talk about mobile apps and Facebook apps, and small software downloads that allow you to do something interesting or something unique," says MacArthur.

"The joy of this program, is that we're talking about something that is growing, and will redefine itself in two to three years. What is an ‘app' at the launch of the show might be something completely different in four or five years," says Abel.

"I like to think apps represent a kind of magic, or super powers. Being able to download the ability to be invisible or fly, these are the things you can do with the smartphone," says Abel.

"We can't guarantee we'll find an app that makes you fly," chimes in MacArthur.

As for favourite apps, Abel picks the new "Garageband" app for the iPad as his ultimate app, MacArthur admits to being addicted to "Groupon," and Hainsworth is a self-described "nosey-bugger" who wouldn't bother with a mobile device that didn't have Facebook on it.
