### 1/5 — Designed by a five year old

*2025-11-26, version 10.5*

Honestly I have seen some poor apps before but this is beyond useless - wasn’t an option for 0 out of 5

### 1/5 — Buggy

*2025-11-18, version 10.5*

Buggy app.  They don’t reply when you contact them about it. Poor customer service. Use the main website instead of this low quality app.

### 1/5 — Start over

*2025-11-06, version 10.5*

This is genuinely one of the worst apps I have ever had the displeasure of using and would prefer malware. I have had to use this app for the past 3 years and it is worse now than it was then, because at least I could access the app. For the past two weeks, no matter which network, hotspot, or mobile data I use, the app says “no internet connection”, so I redownloaded the app and when asked to log in again, it says my account doesn’t exist ???? Remake the app from scratch because trying to organise teams using this awful site is taking years off my life.

### 1/5 — Doesn’t let you spell irish/scottish names correctly

*2025-10-17, version 10.4*

Scottish/Irish Surnames can’t be spelt properly as it won’t let you capitalize the letter after the MacX or McX unless you leave a space like Mac X or Mc X which is incorrect. please could you fix this and allow all with wrongly spelt names to fix the problem.

### 1/5 — Impressively awful

*2025-10-08, version 10.4*

With the new update, when you try and sign up to the universal membership, you get an error message saying you don’t own the universal membership so you can’t sign up for it. Somehow this app has created unbreakable circular logic. Tops it off as the worst app made in App Store history. Can’t even contact someone about it. Not sure what I’ve spent money on if I can’t even go to the gym with my membership. Dreadful.

### 1/5 — Worked once and never again

*2025-10-02, version 10.4*

Constant errors and nothing loads

### 1/5 — Useless, useless, useless

*2025-09-23, version 10.3*

Useless is too positive for this bilge.

### 1/5 — Simply Terrible

*2025-04-20, version 9.2*

The BUCS Play app is a tragic symphony of missed potential — a labyrinth of bugs, crashes, and illogical design choices that makes even the simplest task feel like a Sisyphean ordeal. Navigating it is akin to rowing upstream in a storm: slow, futile, and utterly demoralising. Its sluggish interface and frequent errors seem almost intentional, as though daring you to abandon all hope of finding your fixtures or results. And yet, in stark contrast, the events BUCS organises are genuinely commendable — well-run, competitive, and a true celebration of university sport. It’s a shame that such spirited excellence is shackled to an app so woefully inadequate, it feels like a punishment for daring to participate.

### 1/5 — This may be the worst app ever

*2025-04-19, version 9.2*

This may be the worst app ever

### 1/5 — Abysmal

*2025-02-05, version 8.8*

It seems anyone can make an app nowadays, no senior approval or quality checks required, just launch it. Full of bugs, buttons don’t work, glitches and crashes frequently. Absolutely terrible.

### 1/5 — Embarrassing

*2024-11-12, version 8.7*

This might be the worst app I have ever used

### 1/5 — PJ

*2024-10-15, version 8.5*

This app is completely hopeless.

### 1/5 — How have they not made a new app yet

*2024-10-14, version 8.5*

Single handedly the worst app on my phone. You need NASA grade wifi to be able to load anything on it and the layout is terrible. Please sack this app and create a new one.

### 1/5 — Would 0 stars if I could

*2024-10-07, version 8.5*

I lost my parents in a brutal car crash today and opening this app was still the worst thing I that happened to me.

### 1/5 — shocking.

*2024-10-04, version 8.5*

there’s a reason why the US college sport scene is just far ahead and asides of the promo, the investment the fans. this is one of them. why is it so inaccessible to see previous league results and what not. or upcoming ones? and why is the app so bad. fix up. so so so poor.

### 1/5 — Terribly optimised app

*2024-10-03, version 8.5*

This app is incredibly slow and doesn’t even work 95 percent of the time, would rather get both my knees broken then spend another minute on this app. Would rate it 0 stars if possible.

### 1/5 — Quite possibly the worst app I’ve ever used

*2024-02-13, version 7.6*

I don’t know if I’ve used a worse app before. Just put the tables online and it would be 1000% easier. Takes ten minutes for a page to load after tapping a button.

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Abusively intrusive

*2026-03-24, version 10.8*

To register it contains a list of obligatory questions that make the census look straightforward.
Why do I have to tell you the occupation of the main wage earner in my household when I was 14 in order to look at fixtures?

### 1/5 — Worst app ever

*2026-03-24, version 10.8*

Come on BUCS please do better! It crashes all the time and then just will not work at all. Adds stress to the already stressful student athlete life

### 1/5 — THE WORST APP

*2026-03-23, version 10.8*

This app is completely pointless. Not one thing on it works. It continually forgets what sports/ comps you’re in and anytime you press on ANY BUTTON it says “something went wrong”. Literally the worst app I have ever used. The whole thing needs remaking from scratch. It is AWFUL

### 1/5 — Awful

*2026-02-15, version 10.7*

Didn’t get as far as seeing the app as gave up after the fifth ridiculous question about sexual orientation…

### 1/5 — Unusable

*2026-01-25, version 10.6*

app and website have been unusable for years. navigation is impossible. good luck trying to find your team, league, sport, results etc. UI and UX are awful

### 1/5 — Does not work

*2026-01-14, version 10.6*

Something is always going wrong. I recently signed up for a membership and I went to join a nearby gym, and I got a error saying something went wrong. But a couple of days ago I could at least see the venues that are near me. So I went to the gym to see if I could join there, paid £6 for parking, went to the desk and they said I had to use the app. So that was a wasted trip and a waste of motivation.

### 1/5 — Crashes beyond use

*2025-12-23, version 10.6*

This app simply does not work, it constantly has error messages and crashes every three seconds. It needs a lot of work.

### 1/5 — New Update has Broken It

*2025-12-08, version 10.6*

Only error messages now

### 1/5 — Useless

*2025-12-07, version 10.6*

“An error occurred”. Useless

### 1/5 — Unusable

*2025-11-27, version 10.5*

It feels like they literally just did not test it before releasing it, in that it generally does not work at all. It also takes far too long to set up and uses too much of your information.

## Most praised reviews (9 highest-rated)

### 5/5 — So much better!

*2019-09-25, version 2.2.3*

In comparison to BUCScore, BUCS Play is 100 times better. You can find and view the teams/fixtures you want to see quickly rather than spending 10 minutes clicking through to find what you’re looking for. Well played BUCS!

### 4/5 — Works quite well

*2019-12-02, version 2.2.4*

Downloaded and was quickly able to get to the sport and team I’m interested in.  Bugs seem to have been fixed, with no app crashes.

### 2/5 — Cool idea but does not work

*2025-12-16, version 10.6*

The app is so glitchy that you can’t use even the basic functions.
