App is garbage for casting

MaestroLuigi

The app doesn’t show which replays you’ve been watching. Also, while casting, the slider is too far down to manipulate so you can’t fast forward in more than 10 second increments. And when casting the buffering and such is absolutely terrible and makes it take longer to fast forward 10 seconds than just watch the 10 seconds… Also, for hockey, you can’t choose which teams broadcast you want to watch. Overall, extremely crappy coming from the FireTV and AndroidTV apps


Awful

Everytime there’s a live event I’ve never seen an app run so poorly. They don’t deserve anyone money per month, let alone pay per view events.


Woke garbage politics in sports

Cbill87

ESPN has fell off a cliff with its woke garbage bringing politics into sports reporting. Sports is entertainment and an escape for people, not an extension of fake news CNN who’s viewership has also fell off a cliff. Too bad I couldn’t give zero stars


Doesn’t work with YouTubeTV On iPad

Houtiger99

App doesn’t not authenticate with my YouTubeTV credentials on my iPad. I get a white screen. App is super glitchy and does not always work. Poor user experience


Adds and glitches/crashes are too much

sport_junkie

Don’t get me wrong, I love this app and use it daily, but I’ve also been using this for many many years and can see how it’s changed. The amount of adds are kinda embarrassing to me for a company like this who already makes a ton of money and is owned by Disney. Sure there could be a few adds here and there, but almost for every video clip is absurd. It almost ruins the fun in watching them plus it’s sometimes quicker to close out and reopen the app to watch more. It’s silly. Also, I feel that if you are an ESPN+ subscriber then you shouldn’t have adds at all or a bare minimum. On top of that the app occasionally crashes or doesn’t open properly which can come at anytime. It’s not unusual for apps to do this, but again I have higher expectations for a company such as this. Lastly when watching the video clips, a good portion of the time it won’t allow you to select the video you want on the list. It just doesn’t register your tap, so either you have to watch all the videos and adds to get to the one you want, or close out and reopen the app which I usually do. Unfortunately when you reopen that video list will change and you have to find the video clip again. A tad annoying. Anyway, I use this app daily so these annoyances add up, but I’m so used to getting my sport’s updates from ESPN that any other site just doesn’t feel right. If they can fix some of these issues then this app would be one of the best. But please get rid of adds for paid ESPN+ subscribers!

Awesome and Horrible at the same time

What it's like having espn+: I sift through about 15 games from other sports I don't care about right now and finally just find the basketball icon and click it. Then I sift through 10 women's games to find northern kentucky vs Robert Morris. I click it and pick up my very messy sandwich I'm having for breakfast. After I'm 2 bites in with dressing all over the place, I realize i clicked the women's northern kentucky vs Robert Morris game. I set down my messy sandwich after a few minutes of chewing and wiping off my hands I pick the remote back up and find a men's game I care about that is actually going on. I click the East Carolina-ucf game and again look to my messy sandwich which has now has all the ingredients all over the place. I stuff all the ingredients back in as the opening tip is set to happen. Right as I take a bite, I see the spinning wheel of death as the screen freezes and it tries to load the game. After about five seconds, it takes me back to the last screen. When it works, it’s mostly good. It gives access to so many games that we never used to get before. But the organization is pathetic and hasn’t improved since the app started years ago. You can’t set any favorites or load any personal settings. They desperately want you to watch women’s sports, which I consider a good thing and even do when I have time, but they beat me over the head with it so much that it makes me resent that the women’s games are even available. They absolutely subscribe to the quantity not quality method in all aspects of the app


Please fix

cookaveli02

Every single time I launch the app it automatically starts opening tabs to “settings” —> “preferences and alerts”. This has been happening for over a month and is incredibly annoying. 5 stars otherwise.
