Totally broken
Since it’s the only legal way to watch the English Premiership in the US I decided to ignore the negative reviews and give it a go but it’s been nothing but setback after setback.
Signup issues, a totally incompetent help desk that replies in broken English, and now I’m locked in a never ending cycle of “please subscribe to view” > “it looks like you’re already subscribed” > “please subscribe to view”.
One can only hope it goes bust soon and so they stop hiding our great sport behind this broken paywall.

Extremely frustrating
The app is really bad. It does not allow chromecast (despite indicating otherwise), it logged me out automatically for no discernable reason, it often does not even show you what games are happening live (you have to use their awful search function to try and find particular matches). Basically this has been a terrible experience and I guess I will be missing the rest of Premiership season because of this stupid decision to move content from Peacock. If someone thought this was going to boost interest in the sport in the USA it is in fact having the opposite effect.

No AirPlay functionality
I received an email from TRN when I asked about AirPlay. They told me on the 3rd Nov that I could AirPlay from the app. Not sure where they received this information but I can’t.
Why is this so difficult!

Disappointed
Understatement to say the app is disappointing. Cannot stream to tv via AirPlay or Cast. Cannot seem to sign up or manage subscription from app.
Like many have said, this is a huge step back for rugby viewership in the USA. Lost is the casual viewer.
TRN should have had the same performance as Peacock before GPR switched US partners.
I hope there’s an update coming soon. $60 is a bit rich for such performance. It was easier to hunt down Setanta Sports back in the days gone by 😂

Amateur hour
This has the feeling of an app from around 2010, there’s little functionality and what they do have doesn’t work properly. It doesn’t want to accept my payment for premiership rugby content so what I can access is poor quality and can’t be sent to a big screen, presumably because it’s 1080p a resolution also from 2010. The website is no better.
You secured the viewing rights to English rugby, if you want subscribers how about you offer an accessible and quality viewing experience?

Didn’t work
I just signed up fur ( don’t you just hate Apple Spellwrecker?) and what a disappointment. I can not mirror from my phone to my tv. I wanted to give thus one star but it is the Roku app that is a near zero as there are no Gallagher Premiere league available on it. The website and company are going through growing pains and there a quite a few bugs to be worked out.
AirPlay does not work with Roku either. The video shuts down.

used to be free
I knew it wouldn’t stay free for long but now I can’t watch like 90% of the content now. I was able to watch a premiership game yesterday and now I can’t. Like I said I knew it wouldn’t be free forever but kinda sad 😔 the app itself is a lot better tho
Worst app I’ve ever seen
I have no idea what these idiots are attempting to do, but it sure isn’t making it easy to subscribe. I’ve tried under three different email addresses, and there is NO WHERE A SUBSCRIPTION SIGN UP button appears. I rue the day they obtained the rights from Peacock. Sorry Gallagher, you lost a fan. Additionally, I’ve written to them and got no response. Let’s make rugby invisible in the USA. Fools….

Great app but subscription not in iTunes
Love the coverage but now it’s a pay service l can’t subscribe via the app. I like to manage my streaming services via iTunes, so come on make it possible.
Didn’t work
I just signed up fur ( don’t you just hate Apple Spellwrecker?) the network and the app errors it when i try to log in. This is actually caused by my tracker protection as I don’t allow one of the known Google tracking partners through. I’ll have to try it some more before posting again. Just installed it in my Roku so I’ll be testing it out in my phone, PC, and Roku today. The price is right for me. I gave up my Peacock for this as I only watched rugby there. One problem that I’ve encountered is that in the IPhone app is that I haven’t figured it how to close a video that started by mistake. Not intuitive.
Note if they would allow Premiere Rugby in my Roku and not just MLR id be very happy.
