### 2/5 — App built on a budget

*2024-09-11*

Painful app, won’t renew subscription:
- regularly need to log in again, doesn’t remember your log on details like every other app for 10+ years
- font size is small and can’t be adjusted in app or via phone settings
- videos play by default, not when selected by user. Not ideal…

### 3/5 — Good quality but Frustrating.

*2024-04-21, version 3.9.9*

The news articles are written well. The layout and features are good and Autosport plus is good value. But there are two things that make me want to delete the app. 
The first is that the no spoiler notification setting keeps resetting to give me notifications even though I’ve chosen not to be notified. This means I have had pop ups that have told me race results I have been trying to avoid seeing. I have had to turn all notifications off for the app to avoid this. 
Secondly the recent introduction of YouTube videos at the top of articles that auto play WITH volume ON are plain annoying. I’m sure it boosts Autosports views on YouTube by auto playing but even with my phone on silent I get a blast of the intro music on each article I open which is embarrassing when in a public space and also stops any music I was listening to at the time.  I sent a feedback about this but had no reply. 
Please make the videos default to volume off.

### 1/5 — Advert plague

*2023-06-27, version 3.9.3*

99% of the screen is taken up by adverts to the point where you struggle to find the article text. Stick to the website and run an ad blocker so it’s tolerable. Can’t block the ads in the app.

### 1/5 — Paid for premium app but was ‘discontinued’

*2023-04-01*

Got ripped off.   Booooo

### 1/5 — Not worth using any more

*2023-03-17*

Used to value the app and use for free while keeping my privacy but now the free app demanded that had to accept their cookies terms or else. Tried to contact app support on this matter and was impossible without accepting their cookies terms on the app. So deleted the app, found another venue and best wishes to all.

### 1/5 — login doesn’t work

*2023-02-17*

can’t access features i paid for

### 1/5 — Autosport

*2022-09-27, version 3.8.10*

Paid

### 1/5 — App on iPhone blank

*2022-09-08, version 3.8.9*

It’s gone again. Tried deleting and reinstalling, same problem. Nothing.

### 2/5 — Spoilers

*2022-07-09*

Had to delete because this app kept giving this me spoilers even when I turned them off. Delete

### 1/5 — Frustratingly annoying

*2022-06-19*

As always with Autosport, the articles are very good but this app is so backward. I am engaged in a long running (c6m) attempt to get Plus to work properly for me - quite often I just get a blank white screen. The in app support is useless - I’ve never got a response that way only via emails. The support team need prompting too and they have made very little progress (and don’t seem terribly bothered by it either). Update - still not working over 8 months after paying for it. Support has been woeful - nothing from them for the last five weeks. Yet again I have had to chase them. I have been an Autosport reader for probably 30 years but this is really souring my view of the publication. 

Update on 19 Jun - absolutely nothing from anybody in terms of helping me with this app problem on my iPhone 12, despite chasing by email every 10 days or so. Audren Devalbray and Matt Sleight are the latest to email me but they have disappeared and have not answered any emails at all for weeks. No interest shown in trying to fix my problem. It is now beginning to being bordering on the pathetic.

### 2/5 — IT’S BROKEN - AVOID !

*2022-05-09*

Latest update says it’s compatible with my phone, but now it doesn’t work at all...

At best time I get “ouch something went wrong”, otherwise it’s just a blank white screen most of times.

### 1/5 — Poor cx

*2022-05-07, version 3.8.3*

The app cannot remember logins or pages saved so I keep being promoted to add my + credentials every two days and cannot save articles. Very frustrating.

### 4/5 — Race hub

*2022-05-07*

Why can’t you see the calendar?  All you get is google trying to sell a golf app. It’s rubbish!

### 1/5 — Need help

*2026-06-04*

The app stopped working right it Kim TV keeps asking me to subscribe but I’m on auto pay I keep asking for help but don’t get a response

### 1/5 — No integrity

*2026-02-22*

I purchased this app back in the day, now after many years they are demanding me to sign up to a subscription model despite me buying this using real world money for this application, shame on you Autosport.

### 1/5 — Abonnement

*2025-12-12*

Impossible de résilier l'abonnement ! La méthode indiquée n'est pas faisable.

### 1/5 — FRAUD ALERT

*2025-10-28, version 4.0.16*

Have recently spent £39.99. on the PLUS option, should have read the revews earlier.Worked well for a day then reverted to “you have reached the limit of your free items”.Please would somebody at the developers listen, as this fraud and total mis use of promoting a product.Apple should remove this TERRIBLE joke of an app as soon as possible.Why wont Autosprt correct these problems as they look as though they have been going on for a long time.

### 1/5 — Rubbish

*2025-10-04, version 4.0.15*

I can’t believe I now need a security code to be sent to my e mail address every time I need to log in, rather than being able to use my password. This is not a banking app that requires this level of security.

### 1/5 — Awful

*2024-12-22, version 4.0.7*

Constantly logs me out and doesn’t let ios store your log in details. It’s easier to log in to a banking app…

### 1/5 — Paying for this?

*2024-07-30*

Having coughed up for the content, is it unreasonable to want to be allowed to read it? Everything is met with a pay barrier, even when you log in. Absolute rubbish.

### 1/5 — Constantly logs me out

*2024-05-21, version 3.9.9*

Every single day, the app forces me to log back in again. It won't save my log in details, ever. Awful app. Quicker to just view via Safari.

### 1/5 — Apple ID support

*2023-11-23*

I am logged out of my Autosport Plus membership (which uses my Apple ID) and the app won't let me log back in, I have tried contacting support through the Feedback form but have had no response.

### 1/5 — Awful!

*2023-07-13, version 3.9.3*

The worst app and the most toxic group of motorsport journalists. They’ll block you on instagram for pointing out their mistakes. Instead of blocking people, own your mistakes.

## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated)

### 5/5 — Skibidi 67 rizz

*2025-10-26*

67 41

### 5/5 — Auto-best-sport

*2024-02-23*

Absolutely the best, most reliable and complete coverage of motor racing. I love reading the F2 and F3 reports and following the young drivers who may make it to F1.

### 5/5 — Good but could do more

*2023-09-16*

The app and alerts on races are very good, but it is annoying that it won’t let you read the full news articles, so you only get a half the latest story.

### 5/5 — Petrol Head

*2023-05-15*

Love this App. Gives me that extra bit of Adrenaline I need for the week ahead. Especially having Petrol in my veins.

### 5/5 — Awesome and Free

*2023-04-16*

What can I say…AWESOME AND COOL AND FREE

### 5/5 — Yes

*2023-02-14, version 3.9.1*

It good

### 5/5 — Easy to Use, Great Content

*2022-08-30*

Easy to use app, with great content.

Updated regularly each day, and the Plus facility enables you to dig deep into Autosport’s fantastic archive.

### 5/5 — Easy to navigate app for quick bits of news

*2022-04-04*

While new to the Autosport app, so I have nothing to compare it to,  I find the app easy enough to navigate around. The breakdown by type of racing on the top is very useful.

Great content too, so the subscription is worth the cash outlay.

### 5/5 — The best motorsport app for F1

*2022-03-30*

I’m a dedicated follower of motorsport and this THE GO TO app for Formula One news and analysis.

### 5/5 — Tapping links no longer opens a story

*2022-03-11*

In the last few days, I can’t open new stories or articles by tapping links in the app.
