In depth stories, up to date info all the time. Definitely recommend to all Bengals and or Reds fans. ### 3/5 — Not great *2023-03-08, version 27.0.4* Performance is fair with regard to alerts. However, managing specific settings is not clear. Sports alerts are general alerts - I assume. Then there the specific team alerts. Do I then miss out on everything else locally? Also, I get double notifications (the same message twice) and have no easy way to know how to correct this. I remember sending a message a while back to get help, but got no response. Disappointing. ### 2/5 — Multiple notifications of same thing *2022-09-17, version 26.12.5* Quit it or I will cancel ### 4/5 — Reds Fan App *2020-02-22, version 5.23.1* As long as there’s no fee I ❤️ it !!! If your truly wanting REDS FANS EVERYWHERE to be in on the latest Reds News you’ll always provide it free of Charge . True & Real stories & Updates Of Our Guys !! Keep it Coming !!!! From Now into NOVEMBER !! ### 1/5 — I used to love this app *2020-01-10, version 5.22.2* I loved this app back when it was just an app about Reds news. Then they added all Cincinnati sports and it required a little more navigation but that was okay. Now all content is Cincinnati Enquirer articles you can’t read without subscribing, meaning you really can’t access any information on it anymore. Users might as well delete and just subscribe to the newspaper online directly. ### 1/5 — No longer a free app *2019-12-16, version 5.22.2* Used to be free to read reds and bengal articles. Now must have subscription to the enquirer ### 1/5 — Used to be able to read the articles for free... *2019-12-08, version 5.22.2* This used to be a great collection of Reds’ articles. (I have the same issue with the previous Bengals app) You could read all the articles on the app. For free. No limit. Now for some reason, they have decided to start charging to read articles. I will not pay for this service. I actually plan to delete the app. There are plenty of ways to read about Cincy teams for free on the internet. It just takes a Google search. Not sure why they decided to make the change. I’m certain they were making money on advertising when the app was free. Greed looks like attendance at Paul Brown stadium. ### 1/5 — I just want the motivations I select *2019-11-21, version 5.21.3* I only have Reds news selected for notifications. I don’t need Bengals, Bearcats, X or FC Cinci, yet I am getting all of them. Just give us what we select! ### 1/5 — This app is a joke. *2019-11-21, version 5.21.3* Had this app for years to follow the Reds news. Then they change it to all Cincinnati sports of all levels which I don’t want to know about since I am 3 1/2 hours away. Now they tell me that I have read enough free stories for this month and want me to subscribe. I didn’t ask you to change app. so don’t ask me for money! ### 1/5 — You’ve reached your limit! Please subscribe! No thanks *2019-11-12, version 5.21.3* I used to LOVE this app. This is where I would come to on a DAILY basis, most days multiple times, for YEARS, to get my Reds news. Now all of a sudden I’ve reached my limit and have to buy a subscription in order to continue. No, I’ll just read yahoo news or something like that to see what the Reds are doing. Thanks Enquirer! I am deleting your app! ### 1/5 — Agree - No Longer Any Good *2019-11-10, version 5.21.3* All I wanted was a Cincinnati Reds app and, for years, I had a good one. It’s not anymore ... I agree with the reviewer that said all he had turned on was Reds stuff and he kept getting everything. I have the same issue ... and I’m tired of it. I, too, am deleting this app in the hopes the Reds organization sees this and puts out their own app again ... ### 1/5 — No longer good *2019-11-09, version 5.21.3* I downloaded a Reds baseball app several years ago and it was one of my favorite apps. Recently this app was changed to a “all” Cincinnati sports app and they ruined it. In fact, my settings are set to ONLY receive Reds notifications but I get notifications if anyone for the bengals, Bear cats (you name it) sneezes. I’m over it and I’m going to delete the app. ### 4/5 — Cincy Sports. *2019-10-18, version 5.21.3* I would like to see more high school stats. Other than that, this app suffices. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Schedule section link is broken *2023-06-18, version 27.1.1* Schedule section link appears to be broken (at least on my end) ### 1/5 — App is broken *2022-09-18, version 26.12.5* I get 5 of the same notifications every time you send out one and I’m sick and tired of it. Do better ### 1/5 — Worthless *2020-05-07, version 5.24.3* I paid for the app then pressed open the app then got a screen saying open the app then got the App Store ad for the app and presses open the app************. Could not actually see any sports news but it was a good way to waste time. ### 1/5 — Zzz *2020-03-06, version 5.23.1* Zzzz ### 1/5 — Notifications doesn’t work *2020-03-02, version 5.23.1* You can specify what notifications you want, but they will ignore you settings and send you all notifications. ### 1/5 — subscribe *2020-02-27, version 5.23.1* you shouldn’t have to pay extra just to read anything ### 1/5 — Cincinnati sports *2020-02-19, version 5.23.1* The absolutely worst app ever. Needs to be cincinnati reds ONLY. Time to get rid of this useless app I am done. Reds only ### 1/5 — Worst app ever *2020-02-13, version 5.23.1* Unless you subscribe you can’t read anything. Just a waste of time. Piece of junk. ### 1/5 — Cincinnati Sports *2020-01-22, version 5.22.2* I want the alerts on just Bengals and Reds, not the others. I don’t want the other cincy alerts. ### 1/5 — Sham *2020-01-18, version 5.22.2* It’s a subscription service. Why not push articles with the extensive ads? ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — 5 notification on same article all at once. *2022-08-20, version 26.12.5* There are 5 notifications on same article all at once. Should be 1 notification. This needs to be fixed. ### 5/5 — Cincinnati App *2022-04-18, version 26.10.0* Awesome ### 5/5 — Great *2021-08-24, version 26.5.9* Excellent coverage of all the sports in town 👍 ### 5/5 — Great app *2020-03-27, version 5.24.3* Love it ### 5/5 — If you love Cincinnati sports... *2019-10-06, version 5.16.1* You’ll love this app. Plain and simple. ### 5/5 — Great Articles *2019-09-18, version 5.16.1* I live out of state and that makes it more difficult to get news about the Reds. Cin Sports fills that gap. ### 5/5 — Reds web site *2019-08-21, version 5.16.1* Need one that follows the games inning by inning. A live web site for active people. Go Reds, but make easier for your out of town supporters. ### 5/5 — Baseball! *2019-08-18, version 5.16.1* Love this app! ### 5/5 — Go Reds! *2019-08-14, version 5.16.1* Love having this resource. ### 5/5 — Great in-depth daily coverage of the Reds *2019-08-12, version 5.16.1* This is a great source for in-depth coverage of the Reds and other Cincinnati sports teams. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
