Coronavirus crisis affects the news industry. People are demanding accurate information. The growing importance of local journalism is a fact. But how does news publishers can come closer to readers with accurate information?
According to the Facebook announcement the news industry is working under extraordinary conditions to keep people informed during the COVID-19 pandemic.
Hi guys, due to the current global economic situation, PressPad decided to create a special offer of digital distribution for affected publishers. If you know anyone who would benefit from reducing their fixed cost of physical distribution please share this offer with them.
The point is that PressPad does not require any long term commitments so once the situation will be back to normal it is easy to restart print while stoping digital service.
— But wait! Is it okay to invest during a global economy slow down? — You may ask.
News apps improve the experience of blog or web magazine on the mobile devices.
They help publishers increase mobile retention to their content and keep readers updated about the latest articles with real-time notifications. That’s more natural and neutral way of communicating to mobile users than sending email newsletters.

Two months ago we have been announcing big news — our WordPress to app platform for has started to support Android users on Google Play. Now, we have another upgrade of our WordPress–to–app platform.
This time we would like to announce that PressPad News has just started to support Kindle Fire on its native Amazon Appstore for Android.
Our behind the scenes discussion about Kindle Fire support hot or not, was very — let’s say — engaging for the whole team.
Since the launch of PressPad News for iOS, we were continuously flooded with questions about Android support.
Almost every second registered user told us about their need to be able to put their publishing brand to Google Play via PressPad News.
I am not saying this was something we were expecting. As a digital publishing veterans (PressPad is on that market since 2011 building mobile apps for traditional magazine publishers) we get used to the fact that traditional publishers with paid content prefer App Store over Google Play.
— This time was different.
We often think about content as something that is a natural part of our digital life. It’s present all around the digital world and you just have to tap on it, and poof, you got it.
Someone, however, has to create it. Write it, draw it, compile it from the useless chunks of bits into something useful, beautiful, something that generates emotions just like cartoons do.
In this article, I am talking with Dan Rosandich, a magazine’s cartoonist with lifelong experience. His passion to draw and tips for publishers on working with cartoonists.
In our day to day job at PressPad, we answer lots of questions directed by magazine publishers. Most of them are about mobile technology, mobile magazine apps, onboarding print subscribers onto digital magazines and so on. Magazine apps marketing is also among the top subjects.

Children’s publishing is demanding, and still represented by the fraction of digital publications —children apps — available online.
We’re always happy to put our 2 cents into this fabulous area of digital publishing.
As a father of two I know how hard it might be to learn kids identifying opportunities among the ocean of online threats.
In this case, apps for kids appear to be the great solution for parents to sleep well when kids are on tablets. That’s true not only about magazine apps but all sort of apps of various industries for kids including digital publishing for children.
