| 2024-10-12 |  | | Just downloaded this app because trying to watch the Notre Dame game, app keeps telling "me content not available because unable to determine zip code." It also pops up to verify I have location settings enabled for this app at the bottom of the screen. I verified my system settings that location is enabled and it's also enabled for this particular application. Very annoying! Please fix so I can watch Notre Dame on your app in the future. I have a Samsung Galaxy S24 ultra, running one UI 6.1 |
| 2024-09-04 |  | | Clunky, difficult to navigate. Good luck finding the program you're trying to watch, even though you're locked into your specific region, your home page is loaded with suggestions you would never want and couldn't watch anyway because it's outside of your network. Once you do find what youre looking for; maybe it'll load, maybe not. And if it does, get ready to watch some commercials. |
| 2024-09-04 |  | | Ever since the last update, the streaming from this app is garbage. Usually have to restart it halfway through a baseball game because it starts to buffer every 10 seconds. Now the latest thing is that we'll just randomly drop a half dozen commercials right into the MIDDLE of an inning. As in while the game is happening. Guess I can't assume I'll get to see anything interesting that happens in the game. |
| 2024-08-07 |  | | When I need it to work, it doesn't. Past the sign in only working on my providee network. Past the cumbersome Olympics UI where the full schedule list is the best way to browse but it's hidden. I just want to watch replays of what I miss at 3 am and I can't because of unannounced outages and buggy stream replay system than isn't reliable. I'm extremely disappointed. |
| 2024-07-30 |  | | Olympic replays need improvement. I don't know whose decision it is, but here's my pros and cons. Pro - I can replay qualifiers and finals that I missed and stream it to my ChromeCast instead of watching on mobile. Sponsored ads are brief and not disruptive. I enjoy watching without all the unnecessary commentary. Cons - these streams need serious editing. Too much B roll footage that could be cut. E.g., 2hrs of dead footage on Men's floor gymnastics before any team competes.had to FF. |
| 2024-07-30 |  | | This is a bad app. It cant play videos in landscape mode so you're stuck with a tiny screen in the top quarter of your phone. Very hard to fast forward or rewind. The app lay out is confusing and it's hard to find content. And the ads are bad. Sometimes the ads are just as long as the clips I want to watch. Just plain bad. |
| 2024-02-21 |  | | What is the point of releasing an app if you can't even make it work? I've downloaded all recent updates, restarted my phone (galaxy s4) and when I try to play a live event it just shows black for a second and than closes the stream. Pointless. EDIT: It's 2024 (11 years later), and their stupid app still fails to work more often than not. This is ridiculous. |
| 2023-03-15 |  | | As many others have already said, this app is awful since the last update. It is basically unusable now. It won't recognize my previous account and forced me to make another. It won't allow me to select my favorite sports nor will it allow me to modify my profile in any way. It finally allowed me to connect my cable to it, but that's about it. Very frustrating and irritating. |
| 2021-02-11 |  | | Terrible and worthless. Constantly interrupted by ads, making watching a game pointless. 20 seconds of play to 3 minutes of ads. Chrome cast doesn't work properly, either. Flips to ads any time the aspect ratio changes (portrait to landscape or back), meaning missing gameplay because I had to set down the phone. It also has stopped me multiple times to check my cable provider (Xfinity). Don't even bother. |
| 2020-12-15 |  | | Wow, this app is terrible. Sports Talk used to be my #1 sports app. It was efficient, functional and was very stable. This NBC sports app is just awful. I have a Samsung S10 and the pages jarr and bounce every time I scroll side to side or up and down. Also, the app takes way too long to start up. I just don't understand why NBC would replace their best app with something so frustrating. Update 12/15/20 - App is even worse, now it flashes error messages every time I use it. Just terrible. |
