Espn never disappoints

Espn is next to Bleacher Report for the go-to sports app, if not better.

Missing Depth

Not that good

Works sometimes

Does what its supposed to except server gets backed up during games and dont stream smoothly

Pretty Great!

I like how seamless the game watching is on this app. Great job of integration! 4/5 stars gives you room to grow. Keep up the good work!

Cant get enough sports

GREATEST SPORTS APP!!!

GREATEST SPORTS APP!!! That simple!!! Alex

Notification alert tone

The app is fine but the most recent update changed the alert tone. Now I dont know that Im getting a sports update. I think Im getting a CNN breaking news alert or a snapchat or something. Bring back the famous ESPN tone!

ESPN is a supah guud app.

Awesome!

I use it everyday, you dont need any other sports app!

ESPN the App

Excellent job done. It gives me scores, news, and I can watch games anytime. Very well done. Highly recommended. John

Good, just not Great

To be the "leader in sports", you have to actually be the leader is sports... whether it be sports broadcasting, news, apps, etc... When ESPN combined WatchESPN with their original ESPN app, it made things very convenient. The flaws of this app are the abilities to navigate easily from team to team. While in favorites, its too hard to see simple information- like whether the games are home or away, the start of the game, the betting lines in real time etc... there should be basic information posted on anywhere you see your favorite team(s). Additionally, it would be very nice if you could "watch" multiple games at once... if alerts are set for certain teams and/or games, the app should allow the user to set up GameCast on maybe up to 4 teams that are playing simultaneously... While looking into Standings, no matter if it is baseball, NCAA football, NFL, NCAA basketball, and so on, the Standings page takes too many steps to get to and is very small to click on specific teams in that conference or overall. A "Whats Hot Now" at the start up of the app with what channel to find the event on, would be very nice as well, that way the user can quickly find that event to watch on the app or where to watch or to simply get scores of quicker. Fantasy Sports are hugely popular and for ESPN to not bundle the Fantasy Sports app into the ESPN app is somewhat of a letdown. Lastly, just having simple access to other Apps that could be hyperlinked inside the ESPN app would simplify the process... For Example: when looking at details of a specific sporting event, ESPN shows the weather prediction, stadium location... but having a hyperlink with Apple Maps would allow the user to click on the location of stadium to get directions immediately... this same concept could easily be done throughout the app with weather as well, so the user could see detailed weather information when clicking on weather... ESPN is the master of very strange statistics and facts when watching on tv, but the app doesnt have fun facts or anything interesting when looking at a specific team versus another specific team with any kind of pertinent information... like head to head past 5,10, etc. years and points scored last time the two teams met up, and so on. I NEVER WRITE REVIEWS ON APPS, so I hope this review actually gets read by ESPN and Is considered while updating the app in future!

Its great!

Its already great. I would like to add one thing. I would like to be able to customize any tournament of any sport under my favorites.

ESPN Too Self Absorbed

Seems 90% of their content is only for "insiders". Im not paying these d-bags for info that is readily available elsewhere. Which is why the app lasted about 10 minutes on my iPad. Ill stick with CBS Sportsline.

Notifications

Get the notifications fixed…some times it works, some times it doesn’t. Case in point…wanted an NHL game notifications for my team, which is in favorites. Got nothing for the entire game today and I even highlighted it on the main page. Still nothing. Get this fixed…ridiculous that it only works half the time.

Stats

When somebody hits a Home Run or drives in a run they should put in parentheses what number it is. EXAMPLE: Anthony Rizzo hit a Home Run (9) off Chris Sale. Or Anthony Rizzo hit a 2 Run double (25).

Fails to Replace ESPN Radio App

Has promise, but current version DOES NOT replace the ESPN Radio App. Can not download and listen later. Can not download. Will not stream on iPad on my home wifi network. Seems designed for mobile data, only. Understand the desire to replace the ESPN Radio App, put current version fails to do so. Until the ESPN App is fixed, please remove the "listen on ESPN App" banner from the ESPN Radio App.

All that they care about is the NBA.

I really dont care if Tim Tebow is enjoying the bench at pats camp. What I do care about is my NHL playoff game that I want alerts to. I had to learn the hard way that ESPN is just the NBA channel. I was not able to watch the game so I tried to set up ESPN alerts with this app. So instead of me getting my NHL playoff hockey updates, I get some garbage that some NBA guy was spotted eating a bagel on the sidewalk. I also tried to get NFL pre season updates for the draft. Again, NBA garbage I dont care about- Kobes foot is cold. Its sad that an article about Tim Tebows breakfast is longer than the legit 2 sentence article about the illegal hit on Oli Maata. They should really just rename the entire ESPN company to NBA fanatics that dont care about other sports

Should perform a lot better

Ads now pop up automatically with sound on. Very annoying if youre trying to keep a low profile. Also favorite teams sometime dont appear to be playing when checking scores on the Home tab. They only appear when going into the Sports tab and choosing the specific sport you want.

Embarrassing!!!

ESPN is embarrassing and bordering on garbage!! They ask me to pay for content I can get free at a dozen other sites. Their Talent is jumping to competitors as fast as I can write this review. So pay for terrible content from mediocre writers and talking heads? No thank you.
