User Reviews

Overall, users praise the app for high-quality, timely PSU coverage and its ability to keep fans connected (via alerts). However, paywall and monthly fees are a major recurring complaint, limiting access and perceived value. Stability issues (crashes, feed problems, paywall bugs) and intermingling non-football content further frustrate users. The sentiment is mixed: strong content quality and fan value overshadowed by cost and reliability concerns.

Pros

High-quality, timely Penn State football coverage with informative articles and videos from dedicated writers.
Helps fans stay connected to PSU football and feel close to home, even when far away.
Offers alerts for new stories and rapid-reaction updates to keep readers informed.
Considered a must-read for many PSU fans due to consistent coverage.

Cons

Paywall/subscription model blocks many articles and requires monthly fees (examples include around $5.99–$6.00 per month, with some mentions of $15), reducing access for casual readers.
Stability and usability issues: app crashes while reading, feed problems, and bugs that block non-subscribers from reading non-paywalled content.
Non-football content intermingled with football coverage and the presence of non-PSU articles perceived as low value.
Occasional feed stoppages around major games (noted on iOS) and other tech hiccups.

Great news for PSU

Content is great but the app constantly crashes while I’m reading an article.

This app used to be the best free app for psu football fans and now almost every good story is a subscriber exclusive that you have to pay for. I use the app mainly for the alerts on new stories and then go elsewhere to read about it. I’m not paying $5.99 a month to read two good stories. Complete rip off!
