Frequently Asked Questions
What is The Front 5?
The Front 5 is the first page to greet you on the iPhone app and contains the most relevant local news, events, and editor tweets.
What is the Favorites feature?
We have baked in a feature that lets users cache any Patch content for offline viewing (in airports, subways, etc.). It’s a pretty neat interface!
