User reviews

Hoya

I can’t imagine all of the work that went into developing an app for a newspaper, both of which are made by students. As a Georgetown parent, keep it up!

Good but Rough

While the App’s UI is sharp, it doesn’t update alongside the website, and it doesn’t have all the stories present on the website. The ratings on certain reviews are also listed incorrectly, and clicking an author’s name does not pull up their full portfolio. Apostrophes bug out headlines, and I wish there were a way to play historical crosswords.

Other than these notes, having an app is awesome so that’s super cool.
