### 4/5 — Great app

*2025-10-18*

The only reason it isn't 5 stars is the audio and livestreams don't work,besides that it is a great app

### 2/5 — Constantly pauses audio

*2025-05-19*

Thankful for this avenue to listen to games but it’s practically impossible to listen to a full game.   Audio repeatedly self pauses.   I have to press play or reboot to reconnect at least 20 times a game if not more.  Baseball and softball.

### 2/5 — Disappointing

*2025-03-02*

App crashing!  So disappointing because we have multiple teams playing and I can’t see either score!  Please fix!

### 3/5 — Good app when it works

*2024-03-22*

App performs well if you are more than a week or two after Os update. It crashes and does not load until the developer gets around to updating.

### 1/5 — Terrible App

*2024-03-15*

How does this app have any good reviews.  It sucked last year and has been automatically shutting down on a pretty routine basis this year.   Come on 12th man foundation.  Find a vendor who puts out a decent product

### 3/5 — Gig ‘Em!

*2024-03-08*

I love the app, but it’s very buggy. Lately I’m getting error messages when I attempt to listen to baseball or I’m not able to get in at all. Sometimes the app seems to start then shuts down.

### 2/5 — Love having this app available but it’s not good

*2024-03-04*

I use this app mainly to listen to baseball and occasionally basketball games.  This app crashes regularly requiring me to go back and restart the app.  It also drains battery and makes my phone run hot.  I have my phone brightness all the way down, turn off screen, have all other apps closed and not running, on WiFi within maybe 10-20 feet of router.  It’s k on the latest version.  This exact issue has happened the last 3-4 times I’ve used this app the last couple of weeks.

### 1/5 — App impossible to open

*2024-02-26*

I’ve been trying to open the app for the last few days and it crashes within seconds. Deleted, redownloaded, turned phone off and on… this is just one of the worst apps for one of the most important athletics programs! Do better!

### 1/5 — Newer app version is horrible

*2024-02-21*

Revised app, even with updates, is the worst app I have on my phone.  It’s very glitchy, sometimes shuts down, and I typically have to close the app and re-open it to get it to work.  One would think our University would have  resolved this in 2023, but now we are on to 2024.   Unfortunately I will have to rely on other apps to listen in, view press conferences, etc.  One would think that all former students that use this app would agree.  Fix it.

### 1/5 — Updating malfunction

*2024-01-07, version 4.0.0*

When I click on my account and it shows the event I’m at, it just keep saying updating with the circle continuing to rotate. I can’t load anything.

### 1/5 — Terrible upgrade!

*2023-11-30, version 4.0.0*

Can’t find the rosters, hate the calendar, too busy with ads, news and shop. You scroll forever before finding what you wanted in the first place. This is the worst!

### 1/5 — Terrible Update

*2023-11-25, version 4.0.0*

No way to listen to game live. Very glitchy and continues to forward me to other webpages (espn, local stations, etc)

Please fix this

### 1/5 — Crash

*2023-10-15*

How in the world does this have 5 star reviews.  It crashes virtually every time I log into it.  This has been going on I’m for almost a year and they won’t fix it.  I’m at volleyball right now and it has crashed 7 times (so far) today.   Fix your app.  It is terrible.   TAMU needs to find a new provider

### 1/5 — Fix the app

*2023-10-01*

They finally fixed the issue that prevented logging in for 12th man points (after about 6 months) but the app still kicks you out multiple times.  You can’t follow live stats without the app crashing and closing frequently.

### 1/5 — Crashes immediately

*2023-08-30, version 3.0.2*

The latest update causes the app to crash within seconds of launching it. Help!  We are about to start football season!

### 1/5 — Crashes after a few seconds

*2023-08-19, version 3.0.1*

This version crashes after a few seconds last year’s version ate battery like an unattended kid at a candy factory

### 1/5 — Terrible!

*2023-04-28*

I have attended every F-SA-SU softball game this season, plus a few midweek games. Since February 12, anytime I open the app to earn 12th Man points, all I get is “Updating” for the entire game, and NEVER any points. At first, I thought it was because AT&T cellular signal has always sucked in the Brazos Valley, but all season long? Do better, 12th Man! Add a ‘Contact Us’ feature to the app, or, better yet, JUST WORK AS ADVERTISED!

### 2/5 — Crashes

*2023-03-18*

This is the DC-10 of apps.  Constantly crashing.

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Immediately closes

*2025-03-01*

About 50% of the time the app opens for a half a second, then closes. Over and over. Some days it works. Tried deleting the app and starting over. Nope. Same issues. Went from an iPhone 13 to a 16. Same issue. Unstable.

### 1/5 — Won’t Even Open

*2025-03-01, version 12.1.5*

How can I access my tickets and use all the features I was told I’m supposed to enjoy when the app won’t even open/crashes before the starting screen even loads.

### 1/5 — So, downhill is a good description.

*2024-11-01*

I’ve had this app for years. It’s made it possible for me to listen to non-broadcast games of various sports, watch games when away from my home, keep up with stats, check on multiple aspects of my Aggies. Since this season, I’ve, lost connections, not able to connect, seemingly not had any connection to my 12th man account and basically not been able to effectively use any of the “features” the app has had in the past. Most recently, I’ve attempted to link baseball and softball schedules to my calendar to no avail. One of my favorite apps has become a shell of uselessness. PLEASE fix it!  Make it useful again.

### 1/5 — You Broke It!

*2024-09-06, version 4.1.3*

Just in time for the first Game! FIX IT! 

Now I have to log back in every time I open it

Ridiculous! It should save the credentials as it did in prior versions!

### 1/5 — Needs a lot of work!

*2024-09-05*

Wow this app could be so much better. Very hard to navigate. Also when you try and buy parking there is an option to click “map” all it does is bring up a picture of the field. Also have to sign up for multiple accounts for rewards, buying parking and also the app itself. I’m hoping they all mesh together but I really doubt it. Please fix this!

### 1/5 — Fix your app asap!

*2024-05-10, version 4.0.3*

You need to fix your asap on here trying to make an account it doesn’t allow you to so fix the app asap!

### 1/5 — New update was not ready to be pushed out

*2024-04-28*

This is an obvious case of getting a pretty version out. They ruined certain aspect of the UI that allows checking into live sports ect… needs some more updates. Would love them to roll back some of these cleaner features for a more solid running app and less crashing. It’s embarrassing to see this with the university having such a good computer science department. Maybe we should have saved a little money on our coaches so that the could hire better devs

### 1/5 — Glitches

*2024-03-22*

Again, the app is kicking users out every time an attempt to open it is made.  This is the most unreliable app I have ever used.   You can never predict if it will actually work or not.  This is the second year in a row of such problems.  Come on 12th man foundation, put out a product that works

### 1/5 — App Won’t Start

*2024-03-22, version 4.0.2*

The app crashes immediately upon opening, before I even have a chance to log in. I’m not sure how I’m supposed to use my digital tickets.

### 1/5 — App crashes when streaming

*2024-03-17, version 4.0.2*

App is constantly crashing when listening to baseball games. Frustrating.
