The Daily Collegian Penn State for Android
Force closes on Galaxy Nexus. Also a fancy looking app won't solve the poor content quality issues of the Collegian.
-Why does this app need access to phone calls, sms, or the camera? -Pages load very slowly -Content should be up front and center, right now it opens to a blank screen -Why have a mobile app if it just has links to the Collegian website? -Offers feature seems like it might be useful, but I don't want to use GPS in order to use it -Crashed after about 5 minutes of using Hope that helps, I'm sure this is just the first version.
It opens the app but does not open the sections.
Can only open the app once without turning my phone off and on again. The other times it just comes up a white screen. I really like the Collegian too so I would really like this issue to be fixed please. Thanks.
Very slow to load, and crashes

In response to an earlier review. "Why does this app need access to phone calls, sms, or the camera?" Because it can send and share via SMS including pics you take with your camera. Many apps read phone state to allow you to use your phone as a phone? "Pages load very slowly." This was a early issue apparently. Now fixed. "Content should be up front and center, right now it opens to a blank screen." That's how the developer designed the app. Content, at minimal links to content, should indeed be front and center. "Why have a mobile app if it just has links to the Collegian website?" The app can open the Collegian website, but the articles open first with a link at the bottom to 'view in browser' "Crashed after about 5 minutes of using Hope that helps, I'm sure this is just the first version." I am using version 1.2 so probably a later version than the reviews from 11/14.
