It is good and I almost gave it a 4 .. this is what I sent to them as feedback....Firstly I think having the Argus in app format is brilliant. A few minor concerns though.. 1) The Albion section hasn't been updated since the Cardiff game...why? 2) Downloading content can take too long really when trying to get new content on the go. Will there be a move to download new content in the background? 3) the local section doesn't appear to be much different from the main news section.

Rubbish. Installed for 30 seconds and then removed. It should be more prominent that you need an argus account to use the app. I don't know why though seeing as you can access news on their website!
