Just a beautiful app. The design is just about perfection. Easy to navigate and filled with everything you want. 1st class. App designer take a bow.

Can't log in. I've uninstalled and reinstalled to no avail. The login button just doesn't work. So my favourites don't show and I can't watch randa.tv. Very disappointing.

Very poor app. The R&A need to learn a lesson ot two-dozen from 'The Masters' app. I pointed this out last year but nothing has been improved, infact by app standards this has effectively got worse! It just goes to show how far behind the timse the R&A and their app developers are. In short, the live streamed coverage is very poor and very limited, the screens are poorly laid out and cluttered , the graphics are poor and fonts indistinct making it difficult to read in some lighting conditions.

Really disappointed an account is required to stream the featured group. I don't want you having my information. People should not need to register for streaming for a 4 day event

Terrible app. I've downloaded on multiple devices and the app continues to crash.

Can't watch the live featured groups. Had a great experience watching both the masters and us open. This is rubbish

Why would you make people sign-up to watch live video? No other tournament app does that and shocker the link doesn't work to sign-up anyway. 🇺🇸

Overall good, but if they could sort out the bug fixes BEFORE tournament week that would be better - every year seem to have to update the app every day to make it work!

Much better than recent years, faster updating and smoother. However, the font for the player's names is so hard to read that it's worth taking off 2 stars. Using a serif font that small is risky, but using one with kerning that tight is failing at layout 101.
