It freezes the page every time. ### 5/5 — Great Boston Sports Site *2017-05-15, version 4.21.280024326* I used to also read NESN articles but there are so many ads downloading constantly, I decided to come here only. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Outdated *2024-04-14, version 4.33.400045244* This app hasn’t updated since 2020. What’s going on? Brady retired y’all. ### 1/5 — Garbage unsupported *2021-09-01, version 4.33.400045244* They haven’t updated the news on this app in over a year why is it even functional or is it somehow running something illegal I. The background on your phone or iPad. Maybe they are big brother ### 1/5 — Herald Sports *2020-07-11, version 4.33.400045244* How about going back and report on new sports news? Are you going to ever become what you used to be? ### 1/5 — What’s going on here? *2020-06-13, version 4.33.400045244* No new articles or updates since first week of May 2020. ### 1/5 — No update? *2020-05-24, version 4.33.400045244* This app had not updated in weeks. The same stories have been on the feed ### 1/5 — Why no updates *2020-05-24, version 4.33.400045244* Articles have not been updated in over 2 weeks ### 1/5 — Good content. Lousy performance. *2019-03-09, version 4.33.340043853* I enjoy the writing and Boston perspective but have to reinstall this thing at least 35 times in the last year. 3rd time this week. No other app has had this problem on my iPhone 8. ### 1/5 — Sloooow to load, bloated app *2017-03-04, version 4.21.280024326* This used to load fast but now takes forever to load. Stories too predictable with lots of fluff for the most part. Occasionally some good writing but has deteriorated over the years. No need for regular news stories and weather, etc. should return to sports only and not have so much fluff esp on individual players. ### 1/5 — App Crashes *2016-12-27, version 4.14.6* While I enjoy the content, in recent days the app crashes after about 2 minutes of reading. ### 1/5 — Nice but problematic *2016-12-26, version 4.14.6* The good: Great for following Boston sports! When it works. The problem: Spontaneously closes too often. Reading a story, and poof, not anymore. Please investigate and fix. Problem seems to have started with IOS10. Problem still occurring on iPhone 5 running IOS10.2😟 ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Keep it up!!! *2020-06-15, version 4.33.400045244* Great reporting ### 5/5 — My app is frozen *2020-05-18, version 4.33.400045244* I’ve deleted it and restarted. Still nothing! Rebooted my phone. Tried App Store. Help! ### 5/5 — Up To the Minute *2019-08-10, version 4.33.400045244* Well written articles that keep me informed right away. ### 5/5 — My Town *2019-01-30, version 4.30.430040620* Love the coverage! ### 5/5 — Love this app *2018-12-20, version 4.30.430040620* Also love the text sizes that you can adjust. ### 5/5 — Review *2018-12-08, version 4.30.430040620* Love the app although it needs to be fine tune so it will load faster n not kick one out ### 5/5 — This app. *2017-12-14, version 4.24.210030727* I love this app period ! ### 5/5 — Best sports app *2017-08-15, version 4.24.210030727* Great app. Here in W. MASS we get lots of unwanted N. Y. news so it's nice to have this Boston sports app to fall back on. Thanks. ### 5/5 — Herald Sports *2017-07-21, version 4.24.210030727* Great app!
