But don’t we all? GBR/Cowboys!!! ### 4/5 — Great Job! *2015-09-01, version 3.0.0* Absolutely love this app! I read it daily to keep up on the Huskers from half way across the country. My only complaint with the most recent update is the type face is so much smaller. It's much more difficult to read on my iPad than the previous version. Thanks and Go Big Red! ### 4/5 — Pretty good *2015-07-24, version 2.5.4* I just think the design is rough, but besides that, good app. Check it every day! ### 4/5 — Love this app! *2014-06-25, version 2.5* So happy to have this app as it allows me to keep informed of all the news for my favorite team - the Huskers! ### 4/5 — Husker Review *2014-06-01, version 2.5* Great app. I review this app daily. Love up to the minute reviews. Great open forum ### 3/5 — Kevin *2013-05-11, version 2.2.3* Takes too long to update. I go to opposing school's websites to get updated scores for husker games. ### 4/5 — Ok *2013-04-01, version 2.2.3* Takes too long to update, I get everything off of the regular world herald app before it shows up here. Also I would like a link to team stats for all sports. ### 3/5 — Brian *2013-03-30, version 2.2.3* App is very good, but same info is available at owh app. ### 2/5 — Ok *2013-03-24, version 2.2.3* Doesn't ever seem to update. The OWH app is much better. You can read all about the Huskers there. ### 5/5 — Husker Native & Fan *2013-03-20, version 2.2.3* This App is great for those who don't get Huskers news from a OWH or NE newspaper!! ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Unusable! *2021-06-29, version 8.11* This app could be ok if it even stayed open. Don’t waste any energy on downloading this unsupported garbage app. Starved for Husker info and this isn’t the place to get it. ### 1/5 — Disappointed *2019-09-21, version 4.0* After last up date app only contains news stories. No longer able to see roster, schedule, scores or live updates. This app is now worthless to me. ### 1/5 — No Value *2019-09-14, version 4.0* Since you’ve removed all the valuable information, rosters, schedule, stats, and live play, there’s no useful information that I can’t get elsewhere. ### 1/5 — Disappointed *2019-08-29, version 4.0* Previous versions of this app worked in landscape mode, presented information in a clear fashion, included game schedules. This version does none of that and it uses in really disruptive ads. I would be pleased to pay for a better quality app and I would continue to pay my subscription. ### 1/5 — Not paying *2019-08-25, version 4.0* Not going to pay for something that I will only read 10% of the time. ### 1/5 — Last update was 3 years ago *2018-11-30, version 3.0.9* Annoyed that I have to re-enter my credentials every few weeks. Even more annoyed that it was last updated 3 years ago. We are expected to pay for a subscription for the content but then they don’t support the app. ### 1/5 — No money *2018-03-28, version 3.0.9* Don't waste ur money after 5 articles you gotta pay Other free apps same info Was good til they demand pay ### 1/5 — Expensive for a 2007-like app experience *2018-02-19, version 3.0.9* I used this app for four years when I moved out of the state of Nebraska to keep up with the Huskers. Now they want to charge money to view the content. The videos and links NEVER worked on the app, but it was free so I put up with it. Now you have to pay to subscribe with no upgrades or changes -that equals- a delete and the use of the ‘Husker Extra’ app from the Lincoln Journal Star. ### 1/5 — Promising app is worthless. How to make it work? *2018-01-02, version 3.0.9* After 15 articles, it asks for a password, but there’s no way to sign up and no mention of in app purchases. Developer support asks me to submit a form, but there is no form and no way to contact them. Please replace the Mike Riley version with a Scott Frost update. ### 2/5 — Paywall is ridiculous *2018-02-16, version 3.0.9* I used this app religiously for years, but now the content is behind a paywall after 15 free articles. OWH needs to explore a pay option for just this app if they’re going to insist on making people pay for this content. Right now the only option is $120 a year for a complete digital subscription to the entire paper. Not worth it even for my favorite sportswriters. $25 a year and I would consider it. I am extremely disappointed not to be able to enjoy this excellent content without paying a really exorbitant fee. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Sam’s the man *2021-09-27, version 8.11* The best Husker articles out there. All free and convenient. Apparently they made people mad 3 years ago trying to get paid for their work but it’s free now and awesome. ### 5/5 — Good App *2015-08-16, version 2.5.4* Still getting used to it, but I really like what I'm seeing. Easy to use, well-designed, and has a wealth of information readily available. Good job! ### 5/5 — Nice app *2015-07-19, version 2.5.4* Good app to read about husked sports. I use it primarily for football and it works well. ### 5/5 — Good app *2015-01-07, version 2.5.4* Go huskers!! ### 5/5 — Sid *2014-12-20, version 2.5.4* Like the app as I don't get the paper everyday and best of all it's free ### 5/5 — Great Husker app!! *2014-09-18, version 2.5.1* Good info! Easy to use!! ### 5/5 — Luv it *2014-08-31, version 2.5.1* Best app for Huskers news ### 5/5 — Husker N AZ *2013-09-09, version 2.3* This is a great working app with up to date info. App has basically all the info you need from roster info to rankings. I recommend to any Husker fan! ### 5/5 — Big Red Today *2013-04-04, version 2.2.3* Great app!!!! Highly recommend. ### 5/5 — Best ever *2013-03-26, version 2.2.3* Awsome best for all you huskers in husker nation GBR!!! --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
