Previous Years Was Better
Bring back bracket cast where you can see how each outcome of the current scores affects each person in the groups total score. Ie if the team they chose to win 3 games is losing it would show -70.
Updates are awful
it’s a good app, but the new updates are terrible. much more difficult this year to see which picks were correct and incorrect. it was so much better when incorrect picks were just crossed out throughout the bracket instead of the “my pick” tab on each game. in general it’s much busier visually which is unnecessary for what used to be an essentially perfect app. it seems everyone involved just wanted to push through some project for their resume/portfolio. trying to fix what wasn’t broken, and just making it worse in the process.

They completely got rid of the best bracket cast function
No more seeing how far everyone picked each team to go. No more seeing how many points everyone in your group has to lose or gain, no more showing if you’ve lost or won on previous games.
How are we supposed to have every persons brackets memorized? The most fun part of the app was comparing how you were doing with the rest of your group in real time. Why would you ever get rid of this feature?? This app is now essentially a glorified paper bracket.
I can check scores on other apps so why get rid of the one feature that made you unique?

2024 update is horrible
What was the thought process behind all these changes? The app looks worse, works worse, is more confusing, and provides less information than in years past. The new bracketcast makes it impossible to see what the effect of games has on your (or other people in your groups) brackets and half the screen is basically useless massive boxes. Everything across the board is the same but worse. Truly an incredible feat to have an update have zero redeeming qualities. I tip my cap, ESPN, you’ve made your product worse yet again!

Why did you change it?!
New updates for 2024 are TERRIBLE! Lost so many of the BracketCast features (points won/lost, how far the team was chosen to go) that were actually good. The whole My Bracket interface is SO much worse than last year. You took what was good and ruined it.
New User Interface Is Aweful
The new UI took all the fun out of the bracket. Every change is negative. I can’t see more than 2 live games at once, I can’t see the potential points each group member will win / lose. I can’t see everyone in the group ranked in a list by points. I can’t see potential points remaining. I can only see 2 group members at a time. I have the women’s bracket in my face all the time when I want to turn it off for more space. I wish they still had the old, pre-Disney app where everything was intuitive and enjoyable. I don’t think Disney cares about Sports. I have no idea how to track the tournament now that they decided to replace the bracket cast with such a poor redesign. I think they had someone design it that doesn’t understand or use it, and they should revert back to the old design quickly.

iOS 15.7.8 canNOT run app
This app will not run with my current iOS version, 15.7.8. Is there any sane reason why this app is not backwards compatible? If I upgrade to iOS 15.8.2 will I be able to use your app? When I try to run the app I get caught in a loop asking to install a new version of the app, which I can’t.
I have an old iPhone, so I cannot get a much newer OS. The way I see, if Google Maps, US Bank, NPR, and Venmo can work on my phone, your should not have an issue .
The app works beautifully last year. I’m just trying to get the older version working.

Update is not helpful for less updated phones
This app totally worked for me last year, but this year the update won’t allow me to do anything in the app without 16.0. It allowed me to download it, but the recommendation to update it keeps popping up and doesn’t allow me to do anything on it. Does anyone know how to get around this?
Overall good but some changes would be great
This app is good overall but it could use some work. I don’t know what changes happened, but now every time you create a bracket and try to join a group it automatically adds the bracket you made into the group you’re trying to join. I don’t like that because then you can’t fix it. It also doesn’t save the name changes for your brackets like ever.

Doesn’t even work on my device
Admittedly, I only have an iPhone 7, which is pretty ancient in this day and age. But when I tried to download this year, it told me that my version of iOS didn’t support the latest version of the app, but I could still download the latest available version to me. I figured this wasn’t too big of a deal, but whenever I open the app, a text box immediately pops up telling me that I need to download the latest version of the app, and it takes me to the App Store. I’m unable to do anything in the app.
