### 1/5 — Seriously?

*2022-10-30, version 26.12.5*

The coverage of our home town team, the Louisville Cardinals, in the sports section of the Courier-Journal is woefully inadequate, and yes, I subscribe to the paper. Now, we’re expected to subscribe to this app in order to read stories written by CJ reporters about U of L. 

Sad - an example of how to destroy a newspaper.

### 5/5 — How Come

*2020-12-29, version 6.2.0*

How is the Cards HQ more comprehensive & quicker than the CJ?

Thanks for any response.

### 5/5 — Cards HQ

*2019-05-24, version 5.16.1*

Great app. Keeps me up to date with Cards sports

### 2/5 — Restore Purchases

*2019-05-21, version 5.16.1*

The app won’t let me read the rest of the articles saying I need to subscribe or restore purchases. I buy the annual subscription which I have until Oct 2019 and yet when I click “restore purchases” nothing happens!!

### 5/5 — Won’t work

*2019-02-18, version 24.3.93*

For some reason this app doesn’t work most of the time. I get era messages. Aggravating. . I have iPhone 19R and an iPad. Please help

### 1/5 — No longer works

*2018-12-19, version 24.3.93*

The app worked fine for a long time but in the last several weeks it will not load the stories. Just sits there and spins. I am using an iPhone 8plus.

### 4/5 — Forced

*2018-07-01, version 24.3.93*

They forced me to write a review

### 5/5 — One Stop Shop for UofL Sports

*2017-04-26, version 24.0.71*

This App gives you everything you need to follow UofL sports and nothing you don't.

### 5/5 — Cards HQ

*2016-10-19, version 22.0.61*

Excellent coverage of the Louisville Cards! The first app I open in the morning.
