Traverse City Record Eagle Reviews

I lived in Traverse City 17 years ago and have many friends and acquaintances there. I am not going to subscribe but I do read the obituaries to see if my friends have passed away. The Record Eagle used to allow me several articles before I was cut off, but now it is very limited. I am sorry about that.

The Record-Eagle app doesn’t work as well as it used to. I like to use the split screen feature where the entire page shows up on the left side, and when you tap an article that article shows up on the right. TraverseCityRecordEagle no longer works about half the time. It either does nothing when I tap an article or reverts back to page 1A. It’s become so annoying that I’m using TraverseCityRecordEagle less often.

I travel a lot and enjoy reading what is happening at home. I liked the old app better that allowed me to sent articles to people. Being local i watch the obituaries for my family that is out of town and send info....little harder now. Or keep others who have moved away up to date on happenings. Still a good app.

I love having the Record Eagle app on my phone- I can read the news before I get out of the covers to start my day.

I love being able to get & read the paper from anywhere, any time. It’s also nice to be able to send an interesting article to a friend via email.

Great app! I can “flip” through pages like reading a paper version but I can also zoom in to read better. Very happy.

The Record Eagle has a good reputation for covering local, National and International news objectively which I highly value in this world filled with partisan and often fake news.

The Traverse City Record Eagle’s app is actually one of the better apps that I have used for local newspapers.
It is easy to navigate and is a well maintained, up to the date, news source.

The best daily paper of all the ones I have ever had the enjoyment to read. Thanks for your dedication to objective , through and well written news daily. Starts our day, everyday!

TraverseCityRecordEagle runs smoothly, and the content of the paper timely. I would certainly recommend this paper and site to anyone interested in this area.

I didn’t realize how much I appreciate the Record-Eagle until I began investigating a move downstate to be closer to my daughters. It’s very difficult to find out what’s happening locally. I’m wondering how people know what their commissioners and others who serve the public are doing and hold them accountable. A nice plus about getting the Record-Eagle digitally (and a surprise to me) is you get 7 issues—2 more than the print edition. Thank you Record-Eagle for hanging in there when others have folded.

I loved working at the Record-Eagle. Wonderful people I worked with over the years too. Even tho I started with the Batdorf’s and they sold the paper it remained solid, probably because of the quality staff. From the Press Room to the Publisher always good people. I wonder if the public realizes it is not just a newspaper, it is the people who comprise it. I still love you all even tho I don’t know most of you now. I cannot imagine my home without a newspaper in it.

When we relocated to NW lower Michigan, I missed having a good source for state and local news. We started subscribing to the e-version of the TCRE after following their work in various on-line links. The journalists are truly talented investigators and writers. The on-line app is very user friendly, too.

The elapse is easy to read, and to progress from page to page. You can print the crossword from your laptop, and read the paper on phone.

I’ve gotten used to reading the paper on line. My husband still prefers holding a newspaper in his hands, but I can see the print better because it’s lit up well and I can increase the size. Takes some getting used to but I like it!

I’ve been very happy with the RE on my phone— the format is similar to reading a paper edition and I get my local news with my cup of cofee every morning

I’ve had TraverseCityRecordEagle for many years. Just works so well. On my iPad bible study is so easy, multiple translations available, and the resource center integrates seamlessly with whatever I’m reading. I like having my bible, with highlights and notes, available in my pocket wherever I am.

My digital subscription helps me stay connected and see issues around Northern Michigan more clearly and objectively. I like the in depth reporting and stories about social and cultural dynamics original, worth my subscription. And the obits, community calendar and Outside section on Thursdays always keep me grounded in what living up north is all about.

Seeing the paper online as its written in print is so nice for navigating and quickly understanding the overall content. But, being able to ‘click’ on an article and the having TraverseCityRecordEagle convert to easy reading mode, even on my phone (which I use all the time) makes this the best! Plus, a simple close function and it goes right back to the online version of the print for further navigation. Excellent app!

During these turbulent times of Covid and Politics, it is important to not only know what is going in the world, but also locally. While I may not always agree with printed articles, I do appreciate the opportunity to read them.
