The Raleigh News & Observer Pros

Not easily readableThe previous app simply gave an electronic replica of the newspaper. It was essentially the same as reading the actual paper version. This new app has not been designed with such subscriber readability in mind. Instead of improving the app, the new version is confusing and cumbersome to use. It appears that computer geeks have designed it and N&O newspaper people haven’t applied common sense as to the electronic version being usable by the subscribing public..Zalf303Version: 7.3.0

Grateful,My delivery person is outstanding…… my paper is even double wrapped to keep it dry if rain is expected.I am delighted that the online version is available being routinely upgraded band able to bring news to me more immediately but nothing can beat holding and reading the N&O in your hands!

The Raleigh News & Observer Cons

Recent update killed the experienceI understand the desire for modernization, but the recent redesign has made this unusable. Key things to address: 1) Loading speed on first launch - spinner continues for nearly a minute before the articles load. 2) Links from notifications - rarely open anything, and if they do, the often end up at the main page, rather than the intended article. 3) Random app closures - Often I click on the app, it struggles to load any content and then shuts down 4) Overall UI - There are redundant categories (like “State Politics” and “Under the Dome”). Adding in the large tiles makes it difficult to scan the news for top headlines. Even though it seems visually appealing, you’ve made it more difficult and needing more clicks to get to the articles I want to see. It orders them by section, so I’m always seeing the same sections at the top, even when there is no new content available. Please bring the old design back or do some production level usability testing to repair this..MatthewjgearyVersion: 9.1

New app is a disasterSeems to me a simple check for the digest view is can you see every story and the N and O? Many are left out, like obits and other social columns such as bridge. Haven’t figured out how to enlarge the digest view so that it is more easily readable. I used to enjoy my morning time reading the paper, now it is a fight to just read anything. I will probably cancel my subscription soon...am trying to give them a little time to improve this major step back..Electronic_catVersion: 7.3.0
