Not an app just browser shortcut

This is not an app. Clicking it on iPad just opens BBO browser UX. I just want to play offline with a robot. Why do I need an account?

Ads have bricked the app

Since the free trial of premium ended, adverts have made parts of this app unusable. In particular, when selecting solitaire, an ad for TikTok appears and will not not go away. I’ve tried waiting, I’ve tried installing TikTok. But the screen stays put and there is no way to clear it. Shame, but I will be deinstalling.

Great but not anymore

Used to be free now you have to pay. Also, too easy for players to leave table or kick you out only because you are learning.

Bait and switch

After 6+ years playing on bridge base, several game options that were free are suddenly no longer available without a PAID SUBSCRIPTION!
Also the number of ads is ridiculous.

Now you have to pay to play !

Money grab by Bridge Base. We have been playing here once a week for many years and now we have to pay to play.

App has gone pay to play

Used to be good. App has a lot of bugs and quirks; it’s not well developed, but it mostly works.

Now you have to pay a monthly subscription just to sit and play with people. Ridiculous greed.

Be aware

I have been a member for 6 years on BBO since Covid and downloaded the app which allowed me to play with my club. For that purpose one needs to buy dollars and download the App. Last week I purchased dollars with BBO app and was charged £20 on top of my dollars purchase. BBO says it is ApplePay charge. I have written to ApplePay for an explanation of the charge that was not explained or mentioned during payment and I am still waiting for a reply. Pure day light robbery!

Uninstalled..Advertising destroyed the fun like any other b grade app..your user count going to be 0

5 deals a day ?? You desperately need money isn't it.. Advertisements after every hand played is utterly disappointing and destroyed the fun completely.. once in a while ad can be accepted but not before and after every deal.. you killed this app

Ads plus subscription required

I think OK to have ads or subscription, not both. Now requires a subscription to play along with ads. Very sad

It’s sad

I used to love this app. So many options for playing and learning. The adds are driving me to find new apps - this has become unplayable

Bridge base Online

Our beloved BBO allows us to never stop pushing our brain on the quest to be a little better and finally solve the World Class Match in the BBO practice Area.

Really tough update

For those of us who use this a lot, these updates are really difficult. It keeps getting worse.

Swell Home Screen….

There should be a “zero stars” for an app that freezes at the Home Screen.

Good Bridge

An excellent site - well run and managed. Always a pleasure to play

titinea

But I can.t buy BBS , how to manage ?

Website

I can pull up on my iPad all of my apps except BBO… for some reason none of the games show up.. the lady with the cards on the homepage is visible for only a short time. So any thoughts?

Where’s the app version?

App version now looks and runs like browser version. Not an improvement. Harder to search Virtual Clubs for games. Can’t read list of pairs signed up without scrolling. Very small print even on an iPad. I updated from App Store, rather than walk through prompts on my app screen. Just wanted my purple 8+, but app disappeared instead.

Unusable

I played for many years on the old version of the app, which was okayish. There were still many irritating bugs, so I finally updated the app few weeks ago. The new version is basically unplayable: essential parts of the display such as the claim button or even parts of the bidding box disappear during play. Worse than useless. And now BBO wants to charge for the membership. I'm certainly not paying until the app is fixed.

The best platform to play bridge

Bridge Base has all the options to enjoy bridge at all levels. From introductory bridge with simple hands and daily free lessons and play of the hand to challenging tournaments against people from around the world. A mix of free and paid for services. Excellent platform and appreciate all the extra services provided for free

Useless

Used to play this all the time. Now the screen has changed and I can’t get imps any more. Hate the new layout. Why mess up something that worked?
