Really poor app. Only just downloaded to catch up on some pre season. Every time I try to watch a game, the video fails a few minutes in and the entire app becomes completely unresponsive. Forcing me to close the app and try again, by which point I have to start the game from the beginning and then it freezes again. Would give zero stars if possible.

Terrible app. The best thing it does is remind you a game is happening and tell you about the upcoming games. Absolute waste of money to pay to watch the games. The condensed version is so poor and the YouTube highlights are better. Want to watch the full game in the morning? Good luck, takes a good 5-6 hours before a game is ready to download. Want to download the game? Good luck, because if you leave the app while it's downloading it comes up with an error message. Cancelled my trial since.

Since the changes I can't: - Download a game (saved any streaming issues with the last version) - Pause a game for more than 10 seconds or it freezes and the app needs to be restarted - Watch a full game without getting a 4 hour version which is just painful (the edited version is taking much longer to appear) - view the box score at certain times or it shows the final scores The old version didn't always work well, but it did the job. This is just depressingly bad.
