Poor performance. Getting much worse.

I have updated this review countless times because nobody is doing anything to fix it. It’s actually getting worse. To summarize my conclusion, this app is useless. It provides nothing that you can’t get elsewhere. Actually, it is worse than useless because the data feed is often down so you only get error messages. 10/23/21 No box score! This app is an embarrassment. Just being kind. Renewing my MLB.tv subscription? No chance. It’s a shame because a good baseball app would be worth it. This one isn’t. 9/15/21 This app has gone from bad to incredibly worse! Now, every time I try to use this, I get “Could not load data Refresh.” Sometimes after several attempts to refresh, the app comes to life. Usually, it is quicker and easier to just go to the team page on MLB.com. Which makes me wonder, exactly why do I have this app? I can access the App Store to add this review but my MLB app is just a spinning wheel. Go figure. Of all my apps, and I have several, this is the single most underperforming app on my iPhone and iPad. I will always be a baseball fan but this app is not for baseball fans. For example, the Dodgers and Giants in extra innings in a big game for the West and I can use every app but this one. Inexcusable. Why do I even try? MY REVIEW: Take a look at all the reviews. At one time, this app deserved, and received, higher scores but with each update it just keeps getting worse. I figure you get what you pay for so I’ve tolerated it. However, since adding a subscription to MLB.tv, this app is no longer a freebie and I couldn’t be more disappointed. What’s the use of MLB.tv when you only get a spinning circle? Strong 5G connection or wifi, it makes no difference. I can see the app is tracking me but the app (at best) gives me an error message and says it can’t determine my location. Obviously, they are lying or they are totally incompetent. I’m pretty sure it’s both. This app is rich in data mining malware but poor in performance. DEVELOPER’S RESPONSE I received an email that said, “MLB responded to your review...please respond to us through this form.” which was a link to a website. Really! The developer has my contact information, so they should just respond! Sending me to a website which asks me for MORE PERSONAL INFORMATION is not a response. It’s data mining when the requisite questions have nothing to do with my complaint. MY RESPONSE TO THE DEVELOPER Dear MLB Developer, Go to Google.com and, when prompted, enter “how to treat stake holders” then press “search.”
Postseason

We are now into the 2021 World Series and the postseason tab still shows 2020.... I can’t get over how annoying that is....
Terrible

I specifically got this app and paid $24.99 to watch the playoffs but, NO. Both, the ALCS and the World Series are F’ING BLACKED OUT. I can somewhat understand why the Red Sox series was blacked out because I live in Massachusetts but I should be able to watch the Atlanta/Houston World Series. MLBTV is useless.
Worthless

This is the only app I have that will not cast to my tv. It doesn’t even show up as an option. Same with air play—it only ever “loads” and never actually plays. Not a problem on any other app. The tv app won’t even open on my tv even though it’s up to date. I have a subscription to WATCH BASEBALL and I cannot watch baseball on this app. Absolutely ridiculous.

It’s Game 5 of the World Series, and I cannot watch it on my phone? I work in Northern Alaska. This is why I got the app and paid all season? Yeah no thanks 2021 season will be my last.
Crashing Consistently

Since mid October 2021, the app keeps crashing right after I open it. I’ve deleted it and reinstalled it and my iPad is up to date. Same result. WAKE THE F**K UP AND FIX THIS THING! I’M TRYING TO WATCH THE WORLD SERIES!!
