Best App to keep in touch with "Anglo" sports around the world
Sep 16, 2017 Brilliant app that has all the news and even keeps me updated of my second crickey and Rugby teams (live) Australia -
Great For Headlines and Articles
Jan 22, 2019 Often the first place I look for results and headlines. Not the in depth coverage you want for teams you support/ watch on a regular basis. Would have been five stars but sometimes very slow to load. -
Too Slow Loading
Dec 1, 2018 No excuse in this day and age of fast wifi and 4G. Its consistently the slowest loading app ive ever installed on any of my phones. Its a shame cos the content is excellent. Alot of times i open it.......wait about 15 of the 20 seconds it takes and just close it,then go elsewhere. more -
Lagging issues
Nov 11, 2017 Same as some other folks on here, the app seems to freeze for seconds at a time which makes it much less enjoyable. The content itself is still great but the constant freezing is frustrating! -
The best
May 22, 2018 As a Brit living in the USA I rely on this app to keep me informed of what is happening in Sports. I usually look at it several times a day and often follow events live on it. -
Content
Jul 11, 2019 Would give app a 5 star as it lets ex pats see what is going on in British sport. However, I would like to be able to view the videos. it quite often state not available in your area. This is discrimination to brits who live overseas more -
This app has got really slow...
Aug 20, 2018 Since the last couple of updates, the load times for the app and articles within the app have become really slow. -
Good
Dec 9, 2017 Getting better, but still needs a favorite or some way to prioritize news. -
Users Friendly
Sep 6, 2020 This app is highly addictive as it’s full of great information. Very easy to navigate. -
Sports Website
Jan 28, 2019 Easy to navigate and on the spot update

Freezes and stutters when scrolling
Mar 15, 2019 What once was a great app is now useless and frustrating. It freezes and stutters when scrolling up and down that is so annoying it makes one want to delete the app. Loading times also take way longer to the point where using the mobile version the chrome browser is faster. What happened here? more -
Poor effort
Nov 6, 2018 App presents the stories nicely. Unfortunately it doesn’t update the stories on reload or pull down. Even tried deleting the app from memory and opening fresh. Used to work - obviously not testing the app when they do updates. -
Performance problems
Nov 18, 2017 I have used this App for a long time and just loved it. But the past few months it has been horrific. It takes forever to load and refresh. I am very close to taking it off because it’s just adding stress to my life -
Advertising
Feb 24, 2018 Deleted this as soon as they added advertising that pops up immediately after every article you click on. If they offered to let me pay for the app I would have but they can forget it now, forcing advertising down our throats. -
Does not refresh the content quickly
Nov 6, 2018 Whenever game is going on Response of the app is very slow and takes time to refresh content -
Current version constantly freezes
Oct 21, 2017 I've used this app for years with no problem, but the current version (October 2017) is extremely problematic. Every few seconds it freezes as I try to scroll on any page. Please fix!! -
Poorl performance
Oct 22, 2018 Content is as good as always however the app is now performing so badly that it takes minutes to load on my iPhone 7plus and often I give up waiting for it. -
It keeps freezing!
Oct 22, 2017 What on earth is going on with the App? It keeps freezing, doesn’t update properly, it’s just crap! This was my best source of information for keeping up to date with all English sport whilst living in the US, please sort it as I don’t want to rely on Sky Sports! more -
Slow to load pages
Apr 25, 2018 This used to be my ‘go to’ sports app but since a recent release, pages have been terribly slow to load. I’m considering deleting the app. -
Now the slowest loading app on the planet
Jul 2, 2018 Used to be the go-to app for sports news. Not anymore, as it takes 6 weeks for pages to load and the information is now out-dated. Go another route for your sports news.

Sports News at its best
Jul 20, 2018 By Far the best place to get sports news - specially about football. -
Can’t get my teams to download on the menu...
Oct 4, 2020 As above -
1st For F1
May 12, 2018 I use this app as much or more than the official F1 app. It works fast and friendly for me. -
Sport
Oct 30, 2017 Love this app. I come here for all my football news. -
Sports
Sep 2, 2017 A delicious slice of sports reporting in a viewer friendly and eye catching way. Simply, indispensable.

Love it except speed
Feb 27, 2019 Latest release "boots" the first page very very slowly. Doesn't matter what apple device used. -
Please add Iditarod
Mar 5, 2018 I like the coverage on specific sports to add into “my sports” section. But could you please add in coverage on the 2018 Iditarod. It started today, Sunday. -
Suggest
Oct 15, 2017 I want some more sports to be included in the alert list like badminton hockey Athletic -
Apple Watch app
Oct 15, 2018 I’d love it if this app worked on the Apple Watch as well! -
Scores out of sync
Jul 29, 2017 As a software person myself I maybe feel overly uncomfortable when I see independent updates happening to the live text body, summary and headline such that they are out of sync with each other. At times all three can show different scores to each other. App writers need to add a mechanism to keep scores in sync. more -
Close but no cigar
Apr 2, 2016 Layout is good. Content is good. Navigation needs improvement. Master menu should be easier to access. Proximity of master menu & category menu is too close & frequently catches both. Page level content needs better navigation options than back. more -
F1 Push Support !
Apr 25, 2014 This app -in my opinion- is one of the best sports scoring app, now they've introduced push notification support for football, I think they can improve the push notifications to include other sports as well, for example push notifications for a new article on F1, etc. more -
Clean and Convenient
Aug 20, 2016 Easy to find results and tables of leagues around England and Europe. I use it primarily for football results but there are many other sports to choose from. -
Home from Home
Oct 21, 2016 Coverage of all sports is very comprehensive, unbiased and unambiguous. Keeps me right up to date whilst traveling and at home. Keep up the good work

Decent app, unwanted ads
Mar 31, 2018 The app has good information and layout. The main downside is that on WiFi (not mobile) it injects - or allows my ISP TimeWarner to inject - long and extremely loud car adverts before each video. -
Slow load
Jun 19, 2018 As usual content is good, but the load times are really slow. It’s like a current website trying to load via a dialup modem! Needs fixing ASAP. -
Needs to load faster
Oct 2, 2018 Takes forever to load and crashes a lot compared to BV news app. I have deleted it a few times. But I am sucker for pain. -
Slow to load....
May 12, 2018 Why does the app sometimes take 30-45 seconds to load upon activation? It didn't used to be this way prior to the Nav bar addition. -
Refresh lag and no rotation to landscape view
Sep 6, 2018 Takes a bit long to refresh/ load and will not rotate to landscape. -
Very good app, However:
May 26, 2018 very often the audio/Radio links do not work, even when a transmission is not blocked in my Geographic area

Unbelievably slow to load
Aug 18, 2019 Great content but Unfortunately the apps performance can be excruciatingly slow at times -
Too buggy
Dec 2, 2017 Used to be my go to App for soccer news but with the latest revision the app keeps freezing. Don’t use it as much anymore -
Soooo slow
Mar 21, 2019 Good content but takes an age to open. I have spoken to several friends who have the same feedback -
Slow
Feb 26, 2019 Well organised, great writing, but very slow!

Constant lag and freezing
Nov 18, 2017 This version constantly lags and freezes for a long time now when displaying live content or changing from article to article. So annoying!!! -
Slo-Mo Sports App
Aug 16, 2020 So slow loading. Ads load quickly...strangely. Spend ages waiting for the words and picture heavy content to arrive. Needs an overhaul to improve. Should have a text only option. -
Unusable
Jul 18, 2019 If you are outside the uk , the app is mostly unusable taking up to a minute to load articles even with the fastest connections and unlike any other news source. -
Too slow to open
Jun 12, 2018 This app used to be awesome but for some time now its become annoying to use. It takes very long to display. Kindly fix it. -
Does not work
Aug 23, 2019 A great app until a few weeks ago, now unusable. Just buffers, doesn’t work since last update.
What’s Groovy
The app is just wanderfull giving keeping you up to date but I just delete my the app on my phone an I downloaded it again any time I open the app it shows no internet connection and which I have

What’s Subpar
Why does this app take so long to load? It’s been a “feature” for at least a year and seems to get worse. There’s clearly a problem in the way content is accessed from the server (have you heard of Akamai?) and makes using this app very frustrating. Often I just go elsewhere. Fix this and I’d rate it a 5/5.
