Essential local news
Happy to support our local news sources.
New version is not as good for reading
It seems ‘fancier’ or something with more features, but all I want to do is read the daily paper and the previous version of the app was much better suited for that, much easier to navigate through the pages and select articles from the page. This version is definitely a step backwards in that respect.

New style layout not easy
Go back to the old way
New VN app
The new app for reading E-edition is not as user friendly as the previous app. It is very inconsistent when taping on a specific article. Moreover, it does not always work. Too bad VN didn’t test this and work out “kinks” before launching!
Bugs in the app
The new app has the entire paper numbered by page, so it’s difficult to navigate to the jump when reading the e-paper.
JM
They changed the e-paper format. I don’t like it. Probably will not renew.
VN
The new format is Awful! I can’t easily negotiate it. I may have to cancel my digital subscription and go back to delivery paper.
Grateful
Although I no longer live in the Upper Valley, I grew up in Orford and like my daily Valley News to stay abreast of events, people, nature, history in the area. The online version makes it easy to carry in my iPhone. My only complaint is some page cuts or transitions are difficult to maneuver.
Saturday newsworthy news
I like getting to see stories that have not yet been printed and delivered. Especially because there is no Sunday delivery.
Great e-news
The app is easy to use and very convienent!
Favorite Newspaper
We subscribe to six news papers. I always open up the Valley News first. Although, we now live in Arizona, the News keeps us in touch with the “ goings on” around Corinth and the State.
Suggestion
Hiya
Getting tomorrow’s paper online after 10 pm est would be nice

Very adequate for reading the paper.
Only a few minor annoyances. Overall it works very well. I use it mainly on an iPad.
Congrats
Valley News made the Morning Joe headline review with one of its articles this week. Great news paper with solid, broad, interesting reporting. Our friends from the big cities think it better than theirs!
Three-way reading
Thank you, Valley News, for offering three ways to read your paper!
News from everywhere !
Quick editions to look up at fingertips w/o scrolling up & down . Nice set up on the app.
Next Edition Should Start on Page One
I like reading the newspaper on the app, but find it annoying that when I download the newest edition, it opens on the same page as the last one I read on the previous edition. Each new edition should open on page one.
Great News App
Valley News app is the very best news app that I have encountered. Navigation is very easy and the typeface and font size makes for pleasant reading. What I like best is that there is full text content from the newspaper without too many distractions from photos, ads, and videos.
Always great
Thanks for hanging on in t tough news paper world
Great News App
The VNews App is very well designed. In my little rural town many of my neighbors are lamenting the cessation of home delivery to the green plastic VNews box that is co-located with their Mailbox at the end of their driveway. OK Boomer! It is time to let it go!
The days of printing news on dead trees and rushing it to your door every morning are over. One of my sons did that job for about a year and the reality of driving 40-50 miles every morning racing around our rural roads just so you can have a daily “Paper Read’ with your morning coffee is incredibly wasteful. Just get a nice big tablet and enjoy all the advantages of this very well designed App.
I know it is hard to adjust from long-standing habits, and I too, at first, missed the cozy familiarity of a physical Newspaper in one hand and my morning coffee in the other. But the best way we can support Local (and non-local) Journalism is to subscribe to the digital version of your favorite morning reads and move on. My 12” iPad Pro has enough “screen real estate” to give me a reading experience that is effective and (after you get adapted to it) enjoyable. I can jump around the sections - I can quickly share and article with a friend - and a bright backlit screen saves me from reaching for that magnifying glass with the built in light that helps my 71 year old eyes see tiny print on a paper page. Yes, I still read “paper based” books, and I don’t want my books and monthly magazines to be digital only …yet. But I don’t want to see our daily news sources, local and global, to disappear because they fall into bankruptcy trying to hand deliver a bunch of paper pages to your door everyday. Please consider supporting your favorite daily news sources, and especially The Valley News, by subscribing to the online editions. I know you will miss the “Paper Reading” experience… and you will have to find another source of paper for starting the wood stove, lining the litter box and packing those old dishes… but if it keeps quality local journalism alive then I say “Go For It!”
And don’t look to USPS for a delivery solution. The Post Office is not designed to deliver a daily paper to your door.
