Used to be Good now Trash

Search, notifications and access to relevant NAVADMIN used to be key. Now it’s just easier to go online in safari to figure out what’s going on. It gets the second star because it lets me know to go to safari to check it out. Id take a functional app with ads.

Paywalled & Uninstalling (2023)

I find it quite disheartening that this application, intended to support Sailors and Marines, has implemented a paywall. Despite reading the explanations for this change, I'm yet to be convinced of its necessity. I'm curious whether big Navy is comfortable with their public messages being monetized by a second party.

Was free, and great app. Not now

The app used to be free, and was a great reference tool. Now, a “Subscription “ is needed, that means automatic deletion of the app. I will NOT pay a subscription for any app.

PAYWALL

Title and rating is exactly how I feel. There is no reason for it. Aww but the app expenses to run is minimal for such a basic program. Anyway to make a quick buck.

Once free and useful

I am uninstalling this nonsense since I have to pay 5 dollars in order to view more then the last three na admins that came out. I used to recommend this to sailors to use as a quick guide for info now I tell them to use my navy hr website since that is the only free tool we have now. Shame.

Pay wall seriously?

When I first got this app it was great but now there is a pay wall for NAVADMINs that aren’t the 3 latest. I guess I’ll just go back to the website that has them all for free.

You have to pay now

Why would you pay for something that gets sent to the fleet for free?

Nope

It was a good app but I’m not going to pay money to view messages. Yea yea, I see your comments about supporting development costs. Sure, it costs something for you to do but not what you’re asking. Set up a Patreon and ask for donations or set up a tip jar. But $5 is a joke. It’s only a few more clicks to go to the MyNavyHR site.

Deleted this app.

Poor development

I used to live this application because while on travel, pcs, or as a quick reference it was a quick way to have navadmins at my fingertips for a search or easy review. Limiting review to the most three recent and having to pay $4.99 to see anything older is ridiculous. There are times where 5-7 admins can come out on any given day. Unfortunately I will not longer be utilizing the application for its initial intended purpose.

Older messages behind a paywall.

Considering you can look at every NAVADMIN for free online, the $5 cost to read messages older than the most recent three is unjustified.
