### 4/5 — Great App but FREEZES on Fantasy F1 sometimes!

*2026-08-25, version 13.24.0*

A great app and very informative, but on the fantasy F1 it freezes sometimes which is really frustrating. Overall it is a very good app to use and very good for information and all the timing for the free practices qualifying on the race.

### 4/5 — Good app

*2026-08-25, version 13.24.0*

Good app for fans

### 3/5 — The updated design doesn’t fit

*2026-08-22, version 13.23.0*

It’s too wide in portrait mode and there is no landscape mode. It’s almost unusable. Try to look at points for the driver standings. You can’t see beyond the first digit.

### 3/5 — Fix Dynamic Page Sizing

*2026-08-21, version 13.23.0*

Love this app but since the summer break it’s near to useless especially on the schedule as the dates and times get cut off, I’ve got an iPhone 17 pro so it’s not like I’m on old tech. Sorry to raise this in the reviews but if you don’t allow feed back or support in the app it’s the only route

### 4/5 — Schedule Page

*2026-08-21, version 13.23.0*

The schedule page exceeds the screen limits on iPhone 16 OS 26.6. Would add a screen grab if I could….

### 2/5 — To busy!!

*2026-08-21, version 13.23.0*

To much information on the Home Screen! No need for so many tabs and sections when all people want to do is read news and updates. Schedule and results a great feature tho

### 2/5 — Too many updates

*2026-08-15, version 13.23.0*

This app is mid at best, and requires like 20 updates a year, which you cannot avoid as the app simply won’t work. If there was a marginally better app i would jump ship without a second thought.

### 4/5 — Great app

*2026-08-09, version 13.22.0*

This app is great for fans of Formula One, the only downside is that it’s a little glitchy when it comes to the fantasy loading page, but otherwise, it’s a really good app

### 3/5 — Bring back 3 decimal places on the Live Timing panel

*2026-08-01, version 13.22.0*

I really want the mobile app to bring back three decimal places (milliseconds) on the live timing panel. Tracking gaps down to the millisecond adds immense value when following qualifying sessions and close racing battles on a phone or tablet. The current rounded numbers hide the true pace differences. Please consider restoring full precision, or adding a toggle option in the app settings for data-driven fans who want the complete timing layout. Thank you!

### 4/5 — Muito bom

*2026-07-30*

Poderia ter idioma português br

### 3/5 — Unable to log in after renewing F1 TV Premium

*2026-07-29*

I renewed my F1 TV Premium subscription but since then i haven’t been able to log in to the Formula 1 app. It keeps showing the message ‘We didn’t recognise your details.’ Could you please help me resolve this issue?

### 3/5 — Forced update

*2026-07-27, version 13.22.0*

Won’t let you use the app until you update it to the latest one. Quite silly in my opinion.

### 3/5 — Late info

*2026-07-27, version 13.22.0*

Quite poor in the fact that results for practice, qualifying, race are delayed so long.  Can check and get results within minutes online, yet the app sometimes takes hours to post.  Quite poor.

### 1/5 — Planned Obsolescence

*2026-08-22, version 13.9.0*

The F1 app no longer works on iPhone 8.

### 1/5 — App not optimized at all

*2026-08-22, version 13.23.0*

There is no reason this app should be as large as it is.

### 1/5 — iPad app not working  👎

*2026-08-22, version 13.23.0*

iPad app gives a sorry message

### 1/5 — SL

*2026-08-22, version 13.23.0*

Not impressed! Just paid for subscription to follow live timing, go to live timing and get ‘sorry there’s an error’. No live leaderboard on F1 website now either!!

### 1/5 — App won’t open

*2026-08-21, version 13.23.0*

App just crashes when opening it, ios17

### 1/5 — App bug

*2026-08-19, version 13.23.0*

One star because there isn’t a simple way to submit a bug report. 

After the most recent update, the app is zooming in on the schedule page. It does not allow manual zooming in or out, making much of the text (including event dates and times) unreadable. The app says to control font size in system settings, but this is a bug specific to their app as every other app on my phone displays as expected.

### 1/5 — Crash cow…

*2026-08-14, version 13.23.0*

Like most apps on the App Store, this one is a train wreck. After the latest update this one just crashes.
Why did F1 have to fall in the hands of US interests? Is F1 going the way of FIFA?

### 1/5 — Sorry my phone is too old

*2026-08-07, version 13.9.0*

It is so annoying that I’ve always used the F1 app , but for the past 2 years it’s you need to update , I update but i need an I phone 17 or above ?? Why my phone works perfectly well with every other app , but the F1 won’t allow me to look any more , who makes up these rules , or should we all throw out phones away at a certain age , so much for wastage , my phone worked perfectly well , and no k can’t afford a £1000 plus upgraded phone . Shame shame on you !!!!

### 1/5 — The app isn’t working

*2026-08-03, version 13.22.0*

When I open the app, it takes me straight to the schedule section. When I try to go to the homepage, the app is unresponsive, and I’m unable to tap on any of the news or stories.

### 1/5 — Worse

*2026-07-28, version 13.22.0*

This review doesn’t matter because Apple hides bad reviews, but every update this app gets worse.

## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated)

### 5/5 — The best sport

*2026-08-26, version 13.24.0*

This is a good app because it can tell if Lewis Hamilton is going to win the championship and can tell the best battles of the season and have the leaderboard

### 5/5 — Very good indeed

*2026-08-25, version 13.24.0*

I really enjoyed this app as it kept  me up-to-date where is the latest F1 gossip. I also find fascinating that the app you track your favourite F1 drivers and Teams and also let’s super predict the race weekend with a prize or even your fantasy team. This is a very enjoyable app. I would very recommend recommend it to any elegant human being.

### 5/5 — Formula one!

*2026-08-25, version 13.24.0*

This is by far my favorite sport! I follow everything, and sometimes it’s hard to see a highlight that just missed. With the Formula One app, everything comes to me on time, when I need it. Other apps just don’t cut it.

### 5/5 — AUR FARM

*2026-08-25, version 13.24.0*

AURA FARM UPDATE

### 5/5 — Love This! A few ideas and questions.

*2026-08-04, version 13.22.0*

I love this app. It is easy to navigate. And for someone who isn’t allowed social media (and for good reason) I love the Instagram layout to it. I love how you can follow drivers and teams (big Mercedes and Kimi Antonelli fan). I also love how censored it is. The drivers swear a lot and I appreciate the way the app censors it very diligently. I have a question about the age limit for creating an Unlocked account. The app is censored and very clean… so why do you have to be 16+ to create an account? I’m sure you have a good reason for this but if not please change it. I recommend adding a search bar or something like that. I have been wanting to see stuff from drivers parades but don’t know where to find that. This is the only app I have ever rated 5⭐️ and I would hate to change that. The app is smooth and not busy at all. It’s slightly glitchy at times but I blame my phone for that.  One thing I would love to see changed is that when you add drivers or teams to your follows, it is said it gives you a “more personalized experience”? But in truth, it doesn’t really change anything about what the app shows you. If you could make it so it actually gives you that more personalized content I know I would appreciate that. Please respond to my questions.

### 5/5 — Great

*2026-07-27, version 13.22.0*

### 5/5 — Simply lovely

*2026-07-27, version 13.22.0*

This app is amazing with great updates and very easy to use.

### 5/5 — 总体不错 可以看新闻 但能不能加一个中文模式

*2026-07-21*
