I'm having problems migrating to Next@13.x because when I import `@prismicio/next` I get the following error

After looking into the code of your next integration it seems that the new version is using the old `useRouter` hook that comes from `next/router`, but it should be using the hooks from `next/navigation` ([Next documentation](https://beta.nextjs.org/docs/routing/linking-and-navigating#userouter-hook)).

Hello @klynger

Thanks for reaching out to us.

Thanks for reaching out,

Next.js 13 is not yet fully supported with Prismic, but you can check this [thread](https://community.prismic.io/t/creating-new-next-js-13-app-and-trying-to-migrate-from-an-existing-next-js-12-app/11463) that might be helpful.

Best,  
Priyanka

Thank you for the answer, Priyanka. I understand that the support is not 100%, but the thing is that in the Prismic documentation it says that we should use the 1.x version of `@prismicio/next` to get the support for Next@13, but it uses the things that wil break in Next@13.x. It seems like a bug and I didn't find a post about it anywhere.

Hello @klynger

Sorry for the late response. I was on vacation.

I need more information:

1. At what step do you get the error?
2. Are you using nextJs 13 with Slice Machine?

I find some resources it might be helpful.  
You can learn more about the decision here:

1. [feat!: support Next 13, drop support for Next 12 by angeloashmore · Pull Request #48 · prismicio/prismic-next · GitHub](https://github.com/prismicio/prismic-next/pull/48)
2. [Next.js 13 and Prismic Slice Machine - YouTube](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Bx5VoBWpCYs)

You can open a ticket in our issue tracker with more details.

I am looking forward to hearing back from you.

Thanks,  
Priyanka

Hey, here’s some more info:

- v1 supports Next.js 13 when using its traditional `pages` directory. `@prismicio/next` does not yet support Next.js 13's beta `app` directory.

Thanks,  
Priyanka
