The article says to click on video above but there is nothing to click on. The video will not play. What gives? ### 3/5 — Content is 5 stars, app is 1-star *2019-08-19, version 4.33.530046543* The app has layout issues for mobile. The video section has been removed, so you’re limited to content at a glance and some content is only available on website. Videos are unreliable. The app is littered with ads not formatted properly for mobile. Content is amazing, but desktop website is only real option. ### 4/5 — Yeah baby!!! *2016-01-30, version 4.14.6* I am so happy I can keep up with my Mounties. I do agree with the videos need to be accessible directly from the app. Keep adding more and more. I want to keep up with all sports and news and what fans are saying. Gooo Mounties!!! ### 4/5 — WV Illustrated *2015-10-14, version 4.14.6* I like the app and the features on WVU athletics although many are somewhat dated. However, living out of State I wish we could get Mountaineer Gameday shows posted since they are only shown in WV. Some of the snippets from the show are good. ### 5/5 — Great *2015-10-08, version 4.14.6* Love it ### 4/5 — Love the app, could be improved *2015-10-08, version 4.14.6* Best way I've found to keep up with the Mountaineers from NC. Stories are decent and site does work in general. Seems like there are a number of delays getting videos posted. Overall I am thrilled the app exists, same for game day, but hope to see it tweeked for the better. One more thing, lets cover women's soccer a little more since it is obviously our best program!! ### 5/5 — Review *2015-09-13, version 4.14.5* Love this app always has the up to date Mountaineer news perfect! ### 5/5 — The man *2015-08-17, version 4.14.5* I love this app. At one time I was being recruited by the 'eers!! Didn't have good enough grades had to go the D2 route! Always a great app to check in on my favorite team!!! LETS GO!! ### 5/5 — Mountaineer nation! *2015-08-01, version 4.14.5* Love the on time news about my mountaineers. Go gold and blue! ### 5/5 — Thank you *2015-07-31, version 4.14.5* I live near Lexington, KY & all you hear is SEC. It's nice to get news about my HOME TEAM! I give you 5 stars ### 5/5 — Really enjoy the app *2015-04-29, version 4.13.0* Obviously it is something only wvu fans will care about, but I love reading the stories and some of the good accounts they give. Really good for getting some in depth articles about certain players or different things the coaches are trying. As an added bonus, the writers are pretty good and apparently somebody actually edits the articles (unlike some sports apps) because things are spelled correctly and grammar rules are observed. I am also quite fond of how well they keep me apprised of the "other" sports such as rifle or swimming or baseball or some other things that you don't get to see on TV or hear about on ESPN. Highly recommend getting the app for any WVU fan. ### 5/5 — Love the app *2015-04-28, version 4.13.0* I go here almost daily to see what is happening with WVU. ### 4/5 — WVillustrated *2015-03-10, version 4.13.0* like the app but it would be better if I could watch the video on my ipad ### 4/5 — Good Source For WVU Sports *2015-02-12, version 4.11.6* I like being able to keep up with WVU Athletics. Living out of state makes it difficult. This app helps with that. One problem is the videos don't work quite often. ### 4/5 — Keeps me up to date. *2014-12-18, version 4.11.6* I like being able to go straight to a news source all about the 'Eers. Especially since I live outside the Mountain State now. Good reporting. Well rounded WVU sports coverage. Patiently waiting for the video to work on the mobile site. ### 5/5 — Update *2014-11-30, version 4.11.6* Great app need to upgrade it though to see videos. ### 3/5 — CLW *2014-11-12, version 4.11.6* App is OK except videos will only play sporadically. This seems to be a problem with other reviewers as well. Please address this issue and I am sure the reviews will improve. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — iOS compatibility *2026-06-01, version 5.12.080063014* Since upgrading to iOS 26.5 the gold and blue nation app no longer updates and this has been going on for a couple weeks. ### 1/5 — Need update. *2017-11-22, version 4.24.210030722* Can see all videos but the ones for football. Please fix! ### 1/5 — Still need desktop to interact. Lame app. *2014-04-21, version 4.9.5* This app has needed to be upgraded for years but these guys must have better things to do. Go to a page where it says "watch the pictures from practice" or "watch video after reading this story". If your lucky you can go back to the video selection box on the main page but normally the videos or pictures are not there. Only if you go to your desktop computer. Geez... ### 1/5 — WV illustrated *2012-01-24, version 3.3.3* This was a good app but it's gone to crap. Pages freezes no videos have worked for some time now. I used to really like this app but now it's worthless. I'm deleting it ### 1/5 — FIX THIS!!! *2011-12-21, version 3.2.3* Please fix this app. It's one of my favorite for WVU news. OLD football news is all that will load. Videos haven't worked for months. You guys can do better than this! ### 1/5 — Please fix it! *2011-12-20, version 3.2.3* Get errors loading data and cannot see anything but football news. ### 1/5 — Poor *2011-12-09, version 3.2.3* Still not seeing the video option that used to be there. This version constantly throws messages of error loading data on my iPhone 4S. ### 1/5 — No video!!! *2011-09-23, version 2.0.2* WTH...where have the videos gone?? This used to be a great app for keeping up with all thing Mountaineer but as of this week, video is GONE!!! Does WV Illustrated have that much disregard for fans with iPhones that they will only make their videos in flash format??!! VERY DISAPPOINTED!!!! ### 2/5 — Needs Work *2016-03-22, version 4.17.680016726* Like the concept of the app. Reporting of FB/BB recruiting is terrible. Needs work to improve in this area. Have to go to other online sources to see who we are offering and who is interested in us. ### 2/5 — Bad videos *2014-02-13, version 4.9.4* Videos won't load properly. Just goes to a blank screen. Riveting ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Love This App *2019-06-27, version 4.33.400044674* Helps me to keep up with WVU sports. Go Mountaineers!!! ### 5/5 — WVU Illustrated *2018-05-09, version 4.28.190036521* Best app for all Mountaineers!!! LET'S GO MOUNTAINEERS!! ### 5/5 — Keeps me on top of my game! *2018-04-10, version 4.27.840033349* Any Mountaineer info I need , I know where to go ! Thanks ### 5/5 — Great *2017-10-21, version 4.24.210030722* The place I go to for WVU sports info. ### 5/5 — Mountaineer sports news *2017-09-01, version 4.24.210030722* Great app to keep up with WVU sports.

How Bout them Eers? Download this app now if you love the Mountaineers!!! Last review said couldn't watch videos from app, but you can. Just click the videos tab and there all right there. Best app out to keep up with the Mountaineers. Highly recommended #LetsGoMountaineers #HailWV ### 5/5 — Good WVU app *2016-03-17, version 4.17.680016726* I use this app a lot to keep up with my WVU sports. Like it a lot but wish I could play the videos with it without going to web sit to watch them. Says watch video of players and coaches. Can't watch with app but have to watch them on WVI website. Please fix and I would give a 5 star. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/). User reviews are verbatim App Store reviews.
