Enough Already
This has been my go-to sports app since it came out. I’ve enjoyed the improvements the developers have made throughout the years. However... how long does it take before someone fixes the scroll issue on the iPad Pro? I’m not sure if it’s happening on other devices (doesn’t happen on my iPhone X), but it keeps cutting off the top of a lot of pages (team and player pages) and I’m forced to “pull” the screen down just to see the top (as if I were trying to refresh the page), then of course as soon as I let it go, it scrolls right back up like it would normally do if the screen was adjusted properly.
It’s not an iOS 13 issue, as it’s been happening since 12.
You’ve cranked out about ten fixes since this has started, but not one that addresses this. Each time I see a new update I think, “this is it”. Nope.Show lessBadkarmaBaroo

Hello from across the pond 👋! We're so glad to hear that you're enjoying our app! Thanks for choosing theScore and thanks for your continued support! - JBFinally moving on from theScore
I’ve previously reviewed the app and have always felt that the score tracking has been phenomenal compared to other apps. But I’ve also always had an issue with the news content. Sports is an escape from other things going on in most people’s lives, but far too often theScore brings politically opinionated articles into their feed. I rely on the news feed to stay on top of things going on in the sports that I wish to follow, but I do not expect to see articles that vaguely have anything to do with sports, and are instead geared towards influencing reader’s politically opinions. I cannot simply filter out these articles either as I have to scroll past them, seeing their titles which inferiorates me that this app would post such bias garbage.
I’m moving on and not coming back this time. They already had a second chance from me when they stopped posting an ex-writer’s articles that were much of the same.
EDIT IN RESPONSE TO THE DEVELOPER: The political bias on the app and the censoring of comments that don’t agree with that bias do not support your claim of politics and sports “naturally” intersecting. If your claim was true, we would not be subject to the writers opinions on the matter, rather just be presented with what occurred (which I would be fine with by the way). Unfortunately, the writers give their opinions and portray different viewpoints negatively.Show lessDoubleA-.-

Hey there, I'll be sure to pass along your thoughts to our editorial team, who handle the majority of the written content that you'll see on the app. We appreciate this can be a sensitive topic, but there will naturally be occasions when sports and politics intersect. -MCLove it
Love that app but why have you removed players draft history from player bio???Thekid79

Hey there - Thanks for the feedback. Can you please send us an email to thescoreapp@thescore.com and outline which sport you are not seeing this for? This is something that we should be displaying depending on the sport. - JBA great thing going bad
The Score was a wonderful find for me several years ago. However, it has now degraded to the point of being annoying rather than informative. Two things would bring it back to greatness:
1.) Please stop putting up content that requires a subscription to read. If I wanted to subscribe to every sports related blog, I wouldn’t need the Score. Now I have to pay attention to where the posting comes from to determine if I can retrieve the information behind it.
2.) Require the ads to be small and quickly dismissible - these are ridiculously bad coming from newspapers and tv news outlets, to the point of covering the whole screen and not allowing the reader to dismiss for a minute or more. It is maddening to try to read the articles.Show less-kahuna-
Technical issue with notifications
I'm currently experiencing some technical issues with alerts and notifications. But Over all I love the app, and the accessibility with voiceover on the app. I hope the notification issue will be resolved soon. I went into my system settings, and they're enabled. I tried to sentthe test alert, but it didn't work. That's how I know that there's an issue with notifications. Just wanted to make the devs a aware of this..
Update: The notification problem is still persisting. I've submitted a bug report on the app, and you guys did respond quickly. However the suggestion that was given didn't help.Show lessdj.benz_304
App is good till you look at the news
So if you are not familiar with the app they have a news section and on that news section, they let users comment on the stories unless they deem it ”sensitive content” and disable comments. Look I have no issue with that at all. My issue is that when people try to put through their point of views or just voice displeasure on the issue a lot of the times theScore will actually delete your comment even when you say not 1 thing bad about the person, organization, or writer. I had one today where they will constantly post about Antonio Brown and it would be the littlest things that do not require a new story because all they do is add a couple of lines from another post and then post it as a whole new story. I simply commented about it and that maybe people would like to see other stories and boom not even 2 minutes from posting it was taken down. Do not waste your time with this company or app because they are not supportive of their viewers wants or beliefs.Show less1298Matt
