### 1/5 — Bad service

*2023-04-03*

Can’t access digital and refuses to do a full refund

### 1/5 — Not working with iOS 14

*2020-09-20*

I would give 4 stars but app needs to be updated to work with iOS 14. As it is, will not load after latest iPhone/iPad iOS update. I will cancel as I’m not paying for an app that won’t load.

### 1/5 — Does not run w iOS 14

*2020-09-19*

App will not open after updating to iOS 14. Deleted app and reinstalled and still does not open. Constantly updating?  I don’t think so.....

### 1/5 — Northwestern is way over priced

*2020-02-27*

Did not get a paper yesterday and Sunday’s paper was 2 hours late and we only get it 2 days!! The customer service is a joke.  
Am sick and tired of dealing with this

WE WILL BE CANCELLING👎🏾👎🏾👎🏾👎🏾👎🏾

### 1/5 — Rarely Updated

*2019-09-18*

Same stories sometimes for a week or more.

### 4/5 — Awesome app

*2016-12-19*

Comes in handy

### 3/5 — Ok but...

*2016-05-03*

There is no readily apparent search function in the app.

### 5/5 — I love you.

*2015-06-29*

I love newspapers and I love apps. This is the best of both worlds. If you're living in the 21st century AND the 19th century this is truly the app for you. You can view all your favorite articles about Wisconsin and her people like you would a newspaper, but without being shunned for holding a loud piece of paper that blocks view of your face and makes you look like you were born in 1892! With the ON app. (My buddies an I all say "ON" to simplify Oshkosh northwestern, it's made our lives so much simpler. It's kind of an inside thing but you CAN use it if you really want!) I feel totally connected to what's going on in Oshkosh and Wisconsin. Nothing ever happens in Oshkosh, but it's good to have a way to check on all that nothing while I'm on the go! It's also useful to be able to check on whatever everyone is getting mad at Scott walker for, so I can blend in with all the political discussion that I don't really know anything about! I love the Oshkosh northwestern and I truly believe it loves me. 

Xoxoxo ~ kisses and hugs
Me :)
