  • 6 months ago: New App Version 7.1.2 ☛ 7.3.3
Huge step backwards

Much worse than the original app. Makes you log in with name & password every time for e-edition, can only browse through page by page now instead of by section, random occurrences of no page showing anymore. It probably saved them money though!

What is Thisssssss

From what I can see, this is NOT the APP of former. I want an app that allows me to flow through the Dispatch like a paper and share articles. I could use the e edition for this purpose and forego the app. This version is insulting to your cerebral readers. Ummm no thank you. The edition can be access d through the App or website. Im using that but frustrated. I used to be able to easily share articles with F&F. Now, must enter my email each time for to and from...each and every letter...so far no copy n paste options even available. Its just too much and not user friendly, very disappointed, will be cancelling.

Ok, but graphics heavy and not customizable

The title pretty much sums it up. Large photos/images have been added to each storys headline which means you have to scroll a LOT to glance at the headlines. The weather forecast is prominently featured and cant be moved to the bottom or turned off. I get my weather elsewhere so it is wasted space for me. I also cant re-arrange the tiles (tiles - oh so popular for the moment!) to bring the ones I am interested to the top. So, "eh" pretty much sums it up. I can still read articles but have to work more to do so.

Love the new app

Great pics. Loads quick. Can go to topics of interest quickly.

Graphics wasting valuable screen real estate

I liked the former dispatch app for its simplicity, all the headlines at a glance. Now, each story takes up the entire screen. If I wanted to see the photo, I would be happy to open the article.

I liked the old version much better

Pics take up too much room. Fewer headlines. The weather takes up valuable space. I liked the menu on the left. Now I have to scroll about to find a subject. I dont think this follows the basic idea of a mobile app

Poor layout-ready to delete

This "update" is a step in the wrong direction. It takes too many clicks to find stories. You cant even swipe from subject to subject. I miss the old app that just listed all the stories on one page.
