The app is good, unless you look at a lot of firearms. Anytime I click to a link to a firearm at academy in my browser, the app automatically opens, loads for a second, tells me I can't see firearms in the app, and then redirects me back to the browser (where I already was in the first place). It got pretty annoying and eventually I just uninstalled the app.

The app is buggy. VERY SLOW. They offer PayPal checkout but I had to close out of the app and go back twice before it allowed me to click on the yellow PayPal button. Secondly, they advertise $20 off if you use the app saying it will apply in the checkout but it didn't. When you click on the banner to read exclusions it opens a shopping page with clothing. Academy has a lot of technical and marketing issues. I'll shop elsewhere next time.

I don't shop a lot at academy because it's far away but I used to order ammo with my 5% off. This being said you can't look at any guns or ammo on the app. Even if I go to desktop site it switches over to app. So if you're interested in these things don't bother with app. I'll have to delete it if I ever want to order ammo again. The app isn't for everyone.
