WHAT THEY COMPLAIN ABOUT · SHARE OF BAD REVIEWS
Price and subscription15%

50 of the 1 and 2 star reviews.

★★★★★ Not fair to pay two subscriptions!!!
★★★★★ Just done watching sports because it requires four subscriptions to watch Thursday night football, college football, football on Sunday, and Monday night football
★★★★★ Every year the football gods make us all buy espn for one game a week and charge us 30 dollars a month for it.
Bugs, things not working12%

41 of the 1 and 2 star reviews.

★★★★★ This is just the newest bug I've noticed.
★★★★★ Each time I try to change it or add new it gives me an error message.
★★★★★ ESPN ap doesn't work on iPhone & iPad.
Too many ads9%

30 of the 1 and 2 star reviews.

★★★★★ Ads autoplay and are often longer than the clips you wanted to see.
★★★★★ It's pretty obvious the onscreen controls are purposely bad to enforce the viewing of ads.
★★★★★ I don't know how it is acceptable I pay for live sports and getting ads bigger then my event.
Login and account problems8%

25 of the 1 and 2 star reviews.

★★★★★ Doesn't show complete list of All Providers when trying to log in.
★★★★★ Cumbersome, annoying to have to go login every two or three days.
★★★★★ Constantly need to log in through tv app through the Disney account and cable company to maybe or maybe not have access to content each experience starts with a 20 min login experience.
Slow, laggy, battery7%

24 of the 1 and 2 star reviews.

★★★★★ The lag can make the viewing experience on mobile frustrating and confusing, as users are left waiting for context behind scoring updates.
★★★★★ It takes forever for the app to load
★★★★★ It seems like both, but this app drains my battery (even with app refresh off), and renders my phone unusable when the app is being used.
Crashes and freezes5%

18 of the 1 and 2 star reviews.

★★★★★ I watched one I've been waiting for all week kept freezing and when I got to the end of the third quarter it froze and when it came back on, it was the end of the fourth quarter, and I was seeing the winning touchdown…
★★★★★ Every time I try to click the drop-down menu for any sport, the app immediately crashes.
★★★★★ It's glitchy, it crashes a lot, and half the games you try to watch just give you error messages and give up.
Worse after an update5%

18 of the 1 and 2 star reviews.

★★★★★ This is right after the update.
★★★★★ This app is rarely updated, whenever it miraculously is, it is full of bugs.
★★★★★ Genuinely just don't really appreciate this app. They should really rehash this app because streaming any game live is not a good experience with it. It's glitchy, it crashes a lot, and half the games you try to watch…
Wrong or poor results4%

12 of the 1 and 2 star reviews.

★★★★★ Network coverage and game information isn't always accurate. Live stats are sometimes off. The back and forth stuff with ESPN has gotten old. Now it's racism, hate and bigotry from its reps like Steven A Smith and a…
★★★★★ Trillion dollar company with a low quality app.
★★★★★ Fire whoever thought these were good ideas as they are useless and worthless.
WHAT THEY ASK FOR

  • Please bring those back ASAP! 1★, Oct 21, 2026
  • I've never written an app review, but any semi competent software developer, UX designer, or PM should have flagged these issues a decade ago. 2★, Oct 21, 2026
  • They should add it cause besides the Olympics you can't find swimming 4★, Oct 17, 2026

  • Please allow us to turn off this notification, and if it doesn't stop I'll silence all ESPN notifications. 1★, Oct 12, 2026
  • It's really good but I really wish there was more stuff on verts it would be perfect if they did that. 4★, Oct 12, 2026

Stop with the pop-ups

Why the stupid pop ups that make me wait to go to where I want

★★★★★Oct 22, 2026
Sports is Everything. Just like Family

Love this app to death. As much as my family

★★★★★Oct 22, 2026
Never works properly

This app always has so many issues that never seem to get fixed. I’m unable to add or remove teams’ live activities. This is just the newest bug I’ve noticed. Many more still exist. Also, why do you keep trying to force me to pay attention to the WNBA with all these notifications? I don’t want to see anything about the WNBA if I haven’t favorited that sport. Lastly, when you send notifications about a highlight, it should always be able to be viewed via a hard press on the notification screen of my phone.

★★★★★Oct 22, 2026
An Awful App

This literally may be the worst app I’ve ever used. I paid 40+ in the first game. I watched one I’ve been waiting for all week kept freezing and when I got to the end of the third quarter it froze and when it came back on, it was the end of the fourth quarter, and I was seeing the winning touchdown from the the other team and I had no idea how much time was left or anything. I tried to use the app again to watch the NFL network and it was the same thing. I’ll never pay for this app again and I’m upset that I bought into this awful app.

★★★★★Oct 22, 2026
Liberal Democrat news

I used to love ESPN, now it’s a clown show. Horrendous coverage and stays silent with teams walking off during the anthem. Pure trash

★★★★★Oct 22, 2026
Horrible app but my only option

Tried watching the Cal Poly/UCSB women's soccer game and this app is ridiculous. Swiping down from the top corner to change the sound output completely closes what you're watching and there's no link on the home page to get back to most recently watched games.
