### 3/5 — Why is everything behind the paywall

*2025-03-18*

This would be a great app to help keep you up to date with all the Wildcat news, but unfortunately it seems that all the articles that I have been reading for years are now behind a paywall. $5.99 per month is a little pricey

### 2/5 — Removed

*2025-02-07*

After enjoying the app for years I deleted it after making it subscription based. Not worth it.

### 5/5 — Distant cat

*2022-12-27*

THE BEST APP EVER

### 5/5 — Wildcaster

*2022-02-04*

The Wildcaster is the first place I go for all my Wildcat info. The reporters are great. Michael Lev is the best. I love his football and baseball coverage.

### 5/5 — Wildcaster Rocks

*2020-12-23*

This is my Go To App for all things #BearDown.

### 5/5 — GREAT APP!!! GREAT REPORTING!! GREAT PEOPLE!

*2020-10-22*

When it comes to UA stuff, Wildcaster App blows everybody out the water. Nobody does stories, podcasts, videos like they do.

So if you want breaking stuff, get this app!

### 5/5 — Wildcaster Rocks

*2019-12-01*

Great site to follow the Wildcats.

### 2/5 — Why doesn’t the app update?

*2018-11-18, version 4.6.6*

This would be a great app to help keep you up to date with all the Wildcat news, but unfortunately it doesn’t update itself with even half the articles the Tucson.com puts out. After the football game yesterday the only article posted today is a video from one of the players? Come on, this could be so much better.

### 5/5 — Incredible!

*2018-10-24*

Superb website and information piece for ALL Wildcat fans!
