Another formally useful format replaced with a junked up page, ipad disaster. If it ain’t broke why try to fix it and fail?
by New.breed
Find new format very difficult to navigate and have no idea when and where updates come in.

Love the Packet...hate the new app!

IslandPacketNews for the Island Packet does not open all the time. It is frustrating to click on the newspaper view and IslandPacketNews does not always open. It just gets hung up and does not download. There are too many adds that run in the background which effects the appearance of the print text-it gets blurred when the adds open. If you click on the close add it just cycles to a new add. When prompted to enter a nick name to submit this Review it says nick name taken. I don’t believe it is taken. The word I chose is too unique. I’ll try again

I’m a subscriber and this is the worst news app I have. App doesn’t open often. Terrible. Please fix!

I can no longer get the packet to read like the newspaper. No the paper version only show up in a small window on the side of the screen and is much too small to read. They need to go back to the old version of IslandPacketNews .

Since the update it is impossible to read the packet on an ipad. I find it so difficult navigate through the pages. While reading the page goes blank or blurs. I am ready to cancel my subscription.

App is no longer refreshing content. Gives error message “Error fetching feeds - pull to refresh” and does not. Have deleted and reloaded numerous times.

The e-Edition app was far better. With its traditional newspaper layout, you knew what you were reading was today’s news. With IslandPacketNews you have to scroll down a lengthy list of articles, no matter the section, to ensure you haven’t missed anything. What not put today’s articles at the top of the list? Duh.

For what that’s worth.
I’d give the newspaper a 5 in coverage of local news. And great to have access to it on line via IslandPacketNews .
IslandPacketNews is haunted on my phone however. Frequently and inconsistently app reverts (flips) to home page from selected story. Happens when just reading as well as when scrolling.
Deleted and reinstalled, cleared cache, contacted help desk, and compared settings with settings of other newspaper apps on phone. Hope other users don’t have this flipping problem.

Would like editorials more frequent and easier to get to

The pages look dark needs to be lightened up

Our family has loved and enjoyed the news coverage which is objective and interesting.
We rely on the internet version on our IPad and iPhone which makes the coverage available to us whenever and wherever. Sometimes we will get a pop-up while we are resting during a long walk on the beach or paths.
It is a great way to keep up on the local news, even while we are traveling to visit our kids in NY - Mass or when we are in our summer house in the Adirondacks

I read the Island Packet daily. It keeps me up to date with what's going on at HHI.

It’s a great way for us to keep up with what is going on at a place we can’t wait to return to.

I love reading the Packet every morning with a cup of coffee here in Asheville NC.
I have lived away from HHI for almost 15 years and the Packet helps me to feel a part of the Island community. I especially love David Lauderdale's human interest stories.

As with many HHI fans, we only live on island, part if the year. The Island Packet app allows us to stay informed about all island occurrences. We can plan activities for when we are lucky enough to be there.
