  • New football timeline prevents quick checking of goals and scorers

    The latest redesign of football matchup pages prior to the World Cup [in 6.20.0 and 6.20.1] appears to be a backwards step, effectively slowing down the process of checking games for goal times and scorers. The new timeline view has been implemented with the stated intention of providing critical scoring information “at-a-glance”, but in doing so it’s replaced any initial display of the goal times and scorers, forcing you to scroll through the timeline of events. In previous versions it was possible to open a match, immediately view goal times and scorers underneath the score, and press the scorer to move straight to their info page. Not only has that critical information now been buried in the timeline, but pressing the scorer only links to the graphic of the goal. While that’s an interesting feature to add another link to, it felt more useful to have direct access to the player’s page from the goal time.

    Apologies for picking this out here - I’ve been using and appreciating the app for years, and I realise that you’d want to make changes in advance of the World Cup, but I think moving goal times and scorers away from an immediately viewable position on the page had to be flagged up. If they could be returned to the top or an alternative view could be made optional that’d be great, but for quicker browsing I’ll have to reinstall an older version.

  • Empty black lines

    When loading up a new day for scores, those empty black lines still an issue!!! Very disappointed thats its still not fixed. Moving to another app. Fed up of sending emails and screenshots. Plus shallow coverage for ncaa div 2 games.
  • Nice except for the Apple Watch App

    * Update to my previous review. Restarting my watch and forcing a few updates through got the watch app to show scores after it showed “offseason” for a day.

    Overall I like this app. It seems to be decently organized and there is a lot of good functionality. The interface isn’t cluttered and there are a lot of different leagues that are not in other apps.

    However, I got this app because I wanted to see scores on my Apple Watch and that is pretty basic. The only thing it does show is the teams you select as favorites. The previous app I used showed the favorites on one tab and all of scores from leagues you marked as favorites on other tabs.

    This app has everything a sports fan could want and more, couldn’t speak any more highly of this app.

  • Why can’t you get it right

    I really do like this app and had it for years but what is goin on lately? Your way behind on score updates sometimes not even having the scores up till 2nd quarter of basketball to were I have to open the ESPN app which is always faster and at least a min or two ahead of THE SCORE..then sometimes you you guys put the hockey goals on the wrong team or are wrong with your play by play and for a gambling man like myself is a huge problem..the NBA play by play is unexplainable I have no idea who or how you guys get the play by play but terrible. I can go on and on like I said I really to like the app it’s pretty simple and easy I love the black background I’m not ready to give up on it yet but I’m not to far off from deleting it..I hope you are aware of all the problems can’t see how you couldn’t be but please fix these problems thank you....

  • Outstanding update!

    A great app made even better by the recent update. Aesthetics are brilliant, well done! You don’t need any other sports app with this.

  • Best sports app

    IMO it’s the best sports app. I switched away from ESPN at least 5 years ago now.

    There is one thing that bothers me a bit though. Instead of saying “England Soccer, Italy Soccer, and Spain Soccer’” use “English Soccer, Italian Soccer, and Spanish Soccer” so that it is proper English. If you don’t want to do that, then just change it to EPL, Serie A, and La Liga!

    One more thing... please create a separate league for the Championship (England’s Second Tier), Serie B, (Italy’s second tier) and Spain’s second tier (called Segunda División). I know that you can slide to change to the championship in the “England League,” but having it as it’s own league would be great! This is very important to follow due to the promotion and relegation of European Soccer and if you have a team to follow. Thanks!

  • Unbelievable

    The most important weekend in the NFL and your app decides to not update any scores from any sports. Seriously guys? Terrible time to have a glitch. You would think the developers would ensure that the app is working for wildcard weekend for God’s sake.

    I appreciate the quick response from you guys, I have enjoyed thescore for a couple of years now. Each update seemed to create more and more glitches along with making the more user friendly which was a mistake on thescore’s part. You should have left well enough alone. Gabby I was working this weekend and having a sports app that is accurate and can updates your when it should is paramount. I would think that the developers and engineers would have tested the system especially because of this important football weekend we are having.

    After this last glitch today it was the final straw for me. I downloaded the ESPN app and surprisingly it has way more features than your app and is significantly less in megabytes. How is that possible? An app that does more than your app and is more than 50% less in megabytes? It also links into my cable provider so i can watch games outside the house.

    I had a nice run with you all and enjoyed your app, but glitching on wildcard weekend is absolutely unacceptable.

    Good luck to you in the future!!!
