2024-03-24 | Jeff Beck | ESPN, please go back to the vertical layout on bracketcast like the old version as that was much easier to see. I'm pretty sure the old version listed the channel the game was on. This went from being the go-to app when watching the tournament to not being nearly as useful. | |
2024-03-23 | Matthew Hoffmeyer | I've used this App for at least four years. This years design and interface is by far the worst. It used to be more convenient to use this app to follow games and scores. It's slow now and the screens don't fit well on one page... So now I just switch to CBS sports to check the scores and only come here to see how bad my bracket is doing. | |
2024-03-22 | Andrew Boyles | The new update ruined this app. It used to be great for seeing how you stacked up against your group. On bracketcast when you click on a game it shows you who each person picked to win but there is no way to see how far that person had them going in the tournament. Your only option is to go to the "groups" tab and go to each bracket individually. Horrible experience with the new app | |
2024-03-19 | mdg4832 | Am I correct that this app does not allow you to select the type of scoring for your private bracket group leagues? I can't find it anywhere. Some people like to do straight points, others do bonus seed points for picking upsets. How can a basic feature not be available? Not many settings that I can find as administrator of my group. Wonder if it even has handling for ties at the end, we'll see. | |
2023-03-22 | Kaden Calahan | I like that the app has a clean interface and is easy to use. However when attempting to play the 2nd chance tournament challenge in the app, I always get a message, could not connect to server, try again later. So far, I have only been able to play 2nd chance tournament challenge on desktop. | |
2023-03-22 | Kevin Kovach | Not the greatest layout for going back between Picks. I thought it make more sense to be able to see the entire bracket at once. Or just make where you can see full screen and then tap on a game to pick and then back out to see the whole bracket again. Hopefully that makes sense and App has never worked since downloading and has some kind of error when you click on Play TC second chance. So, really never got to enter the second chance bracket challenge. Thanks | |
2023-03-21 | shane howell | If there was a zero star I would give it. I'm continually bombarded with notifications about the women's tournament, which I could not care less about. I've tried turning them off, but "mysteriously" every time I do that, "the server can't be reached", and I'm stuck with my phone blowing up about something I will literally never watch. I'll be using CBS next year. | |
2023-03-20 | WHC | Don't even bother. Just go through the website. Many problems with this app but one in particular irks me. Once your bracket is complete in the app and you want to go back and look at it, it will only show the picks you made of the games that have been played already. I forgot who I had in the following rounds lol it only shows your championship pick. I understand your owned by Disney but who designed this, Mickey Mouse?! | |
2023-03-19 | Josh Gould | Would be fine if it would allow you to turn off notifications. It always says can't connect to servers when you try to turn them off. Not sure how that's possible when you're updating the scores and rankings then sending me notifications that I don't want!! | |
2023-03-18 | Clint Talbott | Buggy and non-intuitive layout. Couldn't view picks for games that hadn't occurred yet. Partially useless for keeping up with your bracket, it's 1 job. The worst part is the notifications. 2 settings, men's and women's tournament. Can't turn off the women's notifications. It's an app to send a notification every couple hours to watch ESPN. |
