Pros and cons of US Army News & Information app for iPhone and iPad
US Army News & Information app good for
This is the best military app out there. Why cant the Canadian Forces make one of these?!
Cool app! Especially like the photo gallery. Great app to learn about the US Army. The game is a neat touch! Keep up the great work!
HOOAH.
As an fng in the FLARNG, this app really is a great tool at keeping soldiers in the know.
I plan on joining the Army after highschool, this app here keeps me filled with daily news and info, glad I downloaded it.
I would like to join the Army after high school plus Im in a ROTC program so this app can be very useful!!!!:D
If you love America, and I know you do, then you should get this app.
Some bad moments
• The app hasnt seen an update since March 2010;
• One of the most important features (email a recruiter) isnt working (iPhone 4, iOS 5.0.1);
• The in-app game is silly at best. It gives the impression that it was addes just so they could write a bit more in the apps description. Im fairly sure nobody going to open the app just to play that game, so its really just a waste (bandwith, memory, etc.);
I dont know, I wouldve imagined the Army dedicating a few more resources to its iPhone app development, but I guess I was wrong. An iPhone app could potentially wield great results, both in recruiting terms (think of how many people have iOS devices) and publicity, that it feels almost sad to see that theyve done almost nothing.
Come on, guys, maje this app what it should be...
I nor anyone should have to pay for this app just to get the update it needs to be fixed I pay enough in taxes and blood and sweat
Click on a link to read an article and the article never appears.....not sure if it is related to latest iOS 7.1 update. Please fix ASAP.
First none of the news links or any of the buttons load. If i want to read any of those articles, only the title shows up and nothing else loads.
Second i thought this app was only about the army. Going through the Small arms portion i see many pictures of Marines holding the service weapons. I would look into getting better pictures for that part with Soldiers holding or operating that weapon system.
App used to work great now none if the articles open just shows titles no words or pics please fix this
Some provisions of this app work on my 5s, but selecting most categories results in a blank screen. Needs someone to monitor the app!
