ESPN

The ads before videos are too long for the length of the video, and if you don't close out of the video quickly enough, the next ad will play in the background until you close the app. Also, the past few days it's been almost impossible to scroll up or down without accidentally having it swipe to the left or right. Seems like most of the articles are ESPN+ now.

I used to watch ESPN religiously 24/7. I just installed ESPN for the first time in a couple years. It costs $$ to watch just about anything! The app was confusing and I spent more time trying to figure out how to watch a NBA Playoff game. By the time I did I also saw the score of the just played playoff game. Oh I didn't mention that on most paid apps you can only watch after the game is over!? It worked out great for me in the past but didn't work out at all! Now the hard part "Easily Cancel"??

This app is not as great as its rating shows. The app forces you to watch ads before and after a 30 second clip or any clip of any length. I pay for ESPN+ and signed into a cable subscription. I slightly understand having an ad play before a clip but it is absolutely ridiculous that as soon as the highlight clip ends, a 60 second ad directly starts after. The worst part is that I cannot close the video or access any other part of the app while the ad is playing. It is as if the ad blocks the entire app. What if I wanted to rewatch the clip? What if there is a live game and I am trying to watch a highlight but also want to keep up with the score? The only work around is to close the app completely and relaunch the app to the clip, because I am not going to sit through a 60 second ad that blocks the app when I can close it and relaunch the clip in under the length of the ad that followed the clip. I am tired of closing the app every time I get lured into clicking a video. Also this app is constantly not updating to show real time data. It took the developers months to add game schedules of CONCACAF World Cup qualifiers for 2022. Games were being played in real time and ESPN had an active tracker of the game but no updated table nor schedule of the previous and following games. This was not updated until days before the March window.

This app has one of the worst user experiences of any app that I've ever used. To navigate to different sports is a challenge, you generally are shown the results of the sport you're trying to watch while trying to find what you're trying to watch. This is incredibly frustrating. The way it authenticates ends up putting you into a loop that you can't seem to get out or figure out where to navigate, rather than just giving you an authentication button.

Fox sports was top, topscorers van de competitie kon je zien en per speelronde overzichtelijk alle wedstrijden. Toen kwam ESPN en nu is het helemaal kut. Echt verschrikkelijk.

Usually streams the NHL feed I want (outside the Blackout restrictions). Occasionally, it won't play the feed without trying extra steps to clear the app cache and force close - even after a phone restart. Also, notifications for unwanted topics keep popping up even though they're off in the app. Annoying. Update- I contacted support and never received a reply. I'm sure fixing the app is high on their priority list...

If you love ads and miss regular cable commercials this is the app for you. ESPN is the world wide leader in sports no question so i find myself using the app out of habit but not by choice. I would delete but i pay ESPN+ for soccer matches. Most apps start free, then they up sell you by telling you hey pay and we get rid of or minimize ads. Not ESPN. You got ads, commercials, and content trying to run at the same time causing the app to, in simple terms, not work. Sad to say but i think the only thing that really works flawlessly in this app is the running of the ads however they can only seem to figure out how to run THE SAME ad over and over again. At least cable tv switches up the commercials and u might run into something you might actually want. Espn runs the same ad before anything and everything you click there is no escaping it. I’d go as far as to say the ads work better than most of the videos they post of the actual content you are looking for. Tap in for a highlight you will get a flawlessly run ad followed by a barely functional video of the content you want. And if u miss that video and try to replay guess what, ANOTHER AD, the same ad, the same exact one u just watched. Insanity. I doubt anyone at ESPN cares they are suffering from success at the highest level. However when a formidable opponent comes along they will be in big trouble.

Won't let me search for MLB player profiles. When I search for a player and click on them, it does nothing. Every other player in all other sports works fine, just not baseball. If I click on a player from within the game stats, I get "Whoops, something went wrong." I've tried clearing cache and data, reinstalling, turning my phone on and off, and it still does the same thing. This all started a few days ago. Please fix, I love the app and it worked perfect for years until this issue started.
