Almost every time I click a notification for a video, the video either doesn't work or it takes me to the wrong page. Then when I try to fix it I lose the whole video and have to find it in the feed which is almost impossible. Don't bother if you like to watch highlights later
Kind of buggy. Good information, though a lot of it is speculation. The game updates are super quick! Even faster than what's televised, I've noticed. One of my biggest annoyance with this app is that if you post a comment on an article, you can't delete or edit the comment. Maybe they'll address it in an update.
I get a lot of info from B/R but it's not without faults. Under the community tab for any given topic, when you click on the post to read comments and then back out, it puts you back to the top of the feed. That can be very annoying and frustrating. Another issue is, in topics that I have looked at, there is articles and tweets that have nothing to do with the feed of said topic. Other than those issues, it's not a bad app.
And now it's all wonky again. If I don't close the app every few articles I read, the videos won't load. They either error out or blip out crazy u til I swipe the app closed and open it again. Sometimes it's the second time I use it. Others it takes a day or two. Beyond frustrating...
Me: "God I hope this update makes the app faster." Updated app: slower to the point of being almost unusable. Somehow, this app got worse with the latest update. I really love bleacher report as a go-to for sports updates and highlights, unfortunately the already slow app is now more boggy and cumbersome than ever. Between bleacher report and ESPN you think they would be able to get simple app right.
Both the app and their customer support are awful. I bought the AEW Revolution Pay-per-view, but it wouldn't load at all. This is both trying it using my TV and then my phone, and neither works. I've tried reaching customer support through both phone and email, but they won't get back to me at all. I lost $50, and I will never be using this app again.
It's a decent app. But it's biggest issue is that it is an absolute PIG on bandwidth. Is there a data saver mode I'm missing out on? How about you guys make it so the videos don't run unless the user clicks on them?
Take the app back to its original versions please the updates have ruined it and almost make B/R unusable. Use to be able toclick on a post hit back when you're done and still be where you were now you have to scroll from the top everytime you read some comments. It glitches and makes you scroll thru the same community post over and over until you back out, Comments are cut off so you cant finish reading them, crashes every 30 mins and alot of the links dont work.
Edit: 1 star because of the insane amount of trackers from this app. Google, Branch, Amazon, Integral, Twitter and New Relic. Chill on the data collection. 2 stars only because the chat is fun. But the articles are very poorly written and the "experts" are casual fans they randomly chose. Basically, if you enjoy forums, this app is great. If you want good sports article's, don't bother.
Overall not a bad app and I would've rated it 4-5 stars except that as a UK based fan of Football (Not Soccer), I am disappointed that even though the USFL 2.0 has been active for weeks/months, there are STILL no articles, etc on the league, teams, etc.... even though the app still runs articles on the XFL!?
Does anyone even test this before they roll out updates? Cannot sign in, and when I do, it still tells me to sign in whenever I want to interact with a post, or read the comments. You can't do ANYTHING interactive. Latest updates have broken the app. I also can't comment or post anything because I was apparently silently banned on BOTH of my accounts with zero explanation. Thanks B/R. You guys stationed in China or something?
Really great app for sport. Sometimes tries to do too much with app updates. Needs to keep it simple and focus on the sport. But otherwise great.
This app was my go-to for sports info, but ever since I upgraded my phone, the app crashes my phone every time I open it. Fare thee well, Bleacher Report, your hot takes got me through many a losing streak :(
The app used to be great, with great articles and decent load times. Now, it is prone to frequent crashes, and Bleacher Report has the bad habit of turning off comments on spicy articles. The comments are the main reason why people look at this app. In addition to this videos often fail to load and the quality of articles has dropped off tremendously.
It's a decent app overall. The biggest issue is you are forced to hit see more to view more stories on your team but when u click on a story you can not return to your place. You must start at the top and browse down all over again. Becomes very frustrating
Great App and Platform. Very well organized, efficient and well designed. The writer's, are pretty decent also. Highly recommended, to all.
I have been a long time user of BR apps. It was excellent until the last update. The apps is prettier ofcourse, but the interface on the Stats are really a deal breaker for me. I like the old style where I can see the whole presented stats without have to scroll left or right. And the sensitivity on the left/right scroll is too high also. I hope they change it.
App was updated into a worse version. The built in back button is gone, so backing out of an article resets the previous menu. This means the "more and less" buttons reset and you have to scroll through all the stuff you've already searched. View resets to somewhere in the middle of all articles. There was NOTHING wrong with how the app used to work. Now THERE IS many things wrong. Stupid decision.
I'm getting Updates on my Mobile App and Google Play Store. I just got a New Phone from US Cellular from Thursday, September 24th, 2020. Despite my phone was getting leaked and I have to get a new phone via Delivery. I'll have to get used to it. All it takes is to read the instructions carefully once my phone was activated. For Example, I have to get it charged as soon as I get home. I'll be keeping my phone at home so I won't get distracted from Spams. I'll be home right after work. Thank you.
love BR, but it's about time it's updated. you can't edit posts once submitted it's so hard to review posts, the Android app needs major surgery! But the platform is excellent for fan engagement. Also we should be able to comments on stories in the app even if links are to Twitter
It crashes all the time when they have breaking news. Also, many of the buttons don't actually do what they are supposed to (i.e. the home button never takes you home)
Not working properly. Every time I comment on a post, it says there is an error that occured. It won't let me post anything myself, or let me change my profile Pic, or follow anyone either. Please fix this. Bleacher report has really gone down hill over the past 5 years. Use to be the best sports app out there. Not anymore. Too many problems
its an good sports app but I have disappointed with some of the stability issues and community guidelines. I was banned for a post on a rival sports teams chat and not given explanation and the post wasnt offensive. so good content but its questionably ran
The site freezes all the time. Can not imput any information at all. I have restarted the app but nothing changes. I have had to use other sites that I really dont like because of this.
OMG!You could have received 4 or 5 stars if the Powers-to-Be, in their infinite lack of wisdom, had not begun using abbreviations for players' last names & omitting positions in stats & box scores. It's unreasonable to expect that the average reader could make sense from these non-sensical abbreviations in Basketball stats or Baseball box scores. I thank you on for the opportunity to vent my frustrations re this non-sensical space saving practice that only confuses and frustrates many.sLc
This app just plays random video audio, just by opening certain threads, I have to scroll down and scroll down to find videos and try to pause them, just to find out those aren't the video audio that is being played, this situation is happens every single time I use the app, but is much more frequent when high profile events are currently happening. Extremely annoying, complete opposite of user friendly, simply because said audio cannot be found to disable it. I only want to hear audio I choose
