Impressed

First! A good convenience for Fairfax County residents.


A bit lame
Brifol

A good start but no quite there yet. This app is simply the county's website in a mobile format.


Lackluster
Caobhin

Underwhelming


At last!
F....Rod

Finally I have access to everything and everything that is going on in the county on my iPad. Thank you Fairfax County!


Fairfax ain't nothing to funk with
Common Wealth Of Virginia

On point , well organized .. Accurate , it never fails. 5 stars - FREE gtf if you don't rate it that.


Add school closure info

We be much better if this app could convey school closures.


Great idea
Sirmsrreqdano

All governments should have an app like this. Saves me time, mailing and many trips to the county offices.


Not much here
Jenniferinva

Should have bus schedules within app rather than a link to a web page - those web pages aren't very mobile friendly. Not much on schools. This is a resin of the website with limited functionality


Your IPAD application
daee kherseh

Dear Sirs Your IPAD application for the County of Fairfax is not functioning properly. When you open it on IPAD it partially opens, does not rotate with the page, and is totally not accessible. I am sure you can take care of this glitch so the users like myself can again enjoy it. Have a great day and thanks for taking care of this. Steven


Fairfax County (Virginia) Government app for iPad
Saritaville

The Library tab in this app is not optimized for the iPad. It displays only the left portion of the pages vertically, with no way to view the right part of each page - regardless of any swiping motions. It completely fails to orient in the horizontal view. Likewise, it does not allow saving of the library card number from one visit to the next, resulting in tediously re-entering the 14 digits at the time of each visit. Please correct these oversights and glitches. Thank you. Please note: The Library tab for this app merits zero stars, yet the review functionality requires the entry of at least one star.
