### 2/5 — Nice when it works

*2026-08-11, version 10.15.0*

Has most of the games. Usually works well. When it does not work though there's no fixing it and support is next to useless. Amazing you pay money for a bit to link you to articles

### 3/5 — Just ok on Apple TV

*2026-08-05, version 10.14.0*

Not a lot of functionality to begin with like pausing or going back is almost impossible. And it hangs very often during games to the point that I need to reboot the app. Should be wayyyy easier to do this. Not like they’re the first.

### 2/5 — Thank goodness for DAZN

*2026-08-05, version 10.14.0*

This app is genuinely awful - difficult to use and constantly glitchy. Very happy I won’t need to watch games here next season.

### 2/5 — Sign in is torture

*2026-08-04, version 10.14.0*

Please get a QR code so I can take a picture and sign in using my phone.  Also, the broadcast of the games don’t freeze but many times the video and audio are not synched.  This happens occasionally across all of my devices.

### 1/5 — Pay wall?? Worst App EVER.

*2026-07-26, version 10.14.0*

Why is this app not letting me access the YES network for Yankees games? Only the MSG network works? My cable plan (Verizon FIOS) includes the Yes Network, yet this app is now blocking me with a $209 pay wall. A month ago, I had no such problem. This app is always causing problems for paying customers, and now I can’t even access Yankees games. Worst app EVER.

### 1/5 — Volume increases on commercials

*2026-07-23, version 10.14.0*

Whenever commercials come on, the volume jumps a noticeable amount - where it’s a problem when I’m watching Yankees late at night and baby is asleep in other room. Then I turn it down and when game comes back on, you can barely hear again. Terrible app/network.

### 3/5 — Eh its ok

*2026-07-21, version 10.14.0*

First time with this app and really not happy with it.  We use this app on our smart TV with Roku stick and  now have had to personally call Gotham  a few times because of out of area message, when we never left the area!  So they have to reset it for me by having me go online and telling them IP address then have to sign in and out of app several times and even delete app and re-install just to get it to work again! Now they tell me to sign in and out before 30 days so it doesn’t happen again! So frustrating!  Will not be purchasing again next year

### 1/5 — VOLUME ISSUES

*2026-07-19, version 10.14.0*

It’s unbelievable that in the year of our lord 2026 we cannot have standard volume across the content and the commercials. The commercials are at least 15 db louder than the broadcast and it is INFURIATING. FIX THIS NOW

### 1/5 — Just terrible

*2026-07-18, version 10.14.0*

How load do the commercial have to be!!! I will never buy anything advertised on this app.

### 2/5 — Great, when it works

*2026-07-11, version 10.13.1*

Ever since YES became part of Gotham Sports, it times out incessantly.  Not a fun way to watch a game.  Features are great, picture quality and sound are top notch but it is frustrating at best to have to constantly kill the app and relaunch.  Gotham - this is pricey - DO BETTER.

### 1/5 — Worst app

*2026-07-10, version 10.13.1*

Terrible app every time I try to log in with tv provider it shows the same screen with Verizon this page isn’t loading I try for months nothing then I decide it’s time to call them didn’t worst app of all time should of kept yes and msg seprate

### 1/5 — Terrible

*2026-07-10, version 10.13.1*

Awful app across all platforms. I use it on my computer, fire stick, Roku, chromecast, basically anything that this app is compatible with. It is an awfully made and maintained app. You’d think they’d have it figured out after a few years of this app but nope. Horrible functionality. Frequent log outs. Freezing. Buffering. Everything moves slow. Overpriced for a subscription. There is nothing good to say

### 2/5 — Awful App

*2026-07-07, version 10.13.1*

Quite possibly one of the worst functioning apps, takes forever to load, click a live game it will take you to the pregame broadcast show, you have to navigate the app to find the live showing, it crashes all the time… $20+ a month to watch a game that should be televised in my area and it’s barely functional.

### 1/5 — Worst streaming app

*2026-07-07, version 10.13.1*

It is so sad that the Gotham sports app is the only way to watch the Yankees if you don’t have cable and it is this glitchy. It is worst on my Samsung tv, where I actually want to watch the games. Among the other issues, even silly settings make no sense like it automatically starts the game from the beginning. Why would you think I’m most likely to want to watch a game from the beginning instead of live? Unfortunately, there is no need for proper investment since media rights are a monopoly. I am close to canceling and just not watching my favorite team.

### 2/5 — Not worth it

*2026-07-05, version 10.13.1*

Not worth it you don’t even get every game. You only get a few games, especially if you’re a Yankee fan.

### 1/5 — It doesn’t work

*2026-07-04, version 10.13.1*

It just hangs and doesn’t show anything. Pretty useless.

### 2/5 — app

*2026-07-04, version 10.13.1*

app constantly freezes

### 1/5 — Worst App

*2026-07-04, version 10.13.1*

This app almost never works. I love the idea of having all New York sports knitted together in one place, but it is executed so, so poorly. I can stream 4K on YouTube tv, but on the same set of devices and internet the app struggles a choppy feed. You throw in the fact that this PAID SERVICE FLASHES AN ADVERTISEMENT BEFORE IT STARTS STREAMING, and I think this might be the largest case of buyer’s remorse I’ve experienced in a long time. I’m shocked at how highly rated this app is in the store and can only imagine they have paid/inflated/used bots or something to raise the rating bc nobody I know, myself included, believes this is anything but a failed product. Please just get Fubo or cable and don’t waste your money on this.

### 1/5 — Necessary evil

*2026-07-03, version 10.13.1*

Have to use this app to watch the Yankees but it’s awful, like many other reviews say. Cuts out all the time and I have log in several times per game, freezes a bunch (it’s not my WiFi, everything else works fine), I get the “snow” screen. And there’s such a delay - I see a notification on my phone that someone scores and then a minute later the score happens. Will not renew, just listen on the radio, it’s free.

### 1/5 — Trash

*2026-06-30, version 10.13.0*

Worst app.  
Doesn’t work a lot.  
Lag in performance and glitchiness has spoiled games I have been looking forward to watching all day.  
Hate.

### 1/5 — Failure of an app

*2026-08-22, version 10.15.0*

Fails to allow me to stream despite fact I have tv subscription

### 1/5 — Worst App Ever

*2026-08-20, version 10.15.0*

Constantly freezes, keeps playing ads while game is playing, starts on pregame and impossible to fast forward to live action. Just the worst app to ever exist

### 1/5 — Poor Performance

*2026-08-19, version 10.15.0*

Constantly kicked out of the App and half the time the picture is extremely blurry.  NOT worth the high cost!

### 1/5 — Terrible this year

*2026-08-04, version 10.14.0*

Gotham Sports app is so bad this year. The audio and video are consistently out of sync, sometimes by minutes, yet the commercials are always in sync. During tonight’s pivotal bottom of the 7th, the app never came back from a pitching change, showed ten minutes of commercials and came back in the top of the 8th. We missed the Yankee’s go ahead home run. Just terrible.

### 1/5 — Terrible App

*2026-07-31, version 10.14.0*

Garbage app that won’t load video even when cable is connected. Do yourself a favor and don’t try to use this app. A disgrace to all Yankee fans.

### 1/5 — The WORST APP EVER

*2026-07-30, version 10.14.0*

DONT BOTHER!! 
WASTE of TIME!!
The YANKEES SHOUlD BE ASHAMED of SUCH GARBAGE!!!!!!!
This app SUUCKS!
The WORST EVER!
Constant FREEZE!!
WINNINGS CANT BE CLAIMED!!!!!
CUSTOMER SERVICE SUUCKS!
FIXXED!!!!!!!!!
HOUSE ALWAYS WINS!!!!

### 1/5 — Good riddance

*2026-07-29, version 10.14.0*

Terrible app. Glad it’s closing up shop. Rarely worked. Logging in was near impossible. Got errors constantly.

### 1/5 — Never works

*2026-07-29, version 10.14.0*

After losing access to YES app and moving to this app unable to watch ANY game via my phone. Only get something went wrong. Have latest update and iPhone up to date.   Useless

### 1/5 — This app is genuinely terrible

*2026-07-28, version 10.14.0*

It does not work

### 1/5 — Couch rights

*2026-07-28, version 10.14.0*

This app is horrible I have never had so many issues with the couch rights and login and dealing with trying to watch a game you need to do better with this couch rights scenario I’m constantly calling and having to get my account reset the couch rights is messing everything up I almost don’t want to be a yankee fan anymore you are getting to greedy and this app doesn’t make it easy

### 5/5 — Yankee Games

*2026-05-16, version 10.11.0*

Love watching most of the Yankee games but I really think that every Yankee game should be streamed on here

### 5/5 — Not exactly 5-stars but getting there

*2026-05-11, version 10.11.0*

A lot of people bash this app and it has its flaws but it’s also come a long way. I remember this app being terrible when it first launched so I kept using the YES App but for this current season, it’s starting to feel like as reliable the YES App. Fingers crossed (tightly) it’s get smoother…

### 5/5 — Expensive but worth it

*2026-05-02, version 10.11.0*

Good sports cast; great cameramen, announcers talk slot!  Michael Kay is an Einstein: David Cone a Feynman, O Neil is in a bar where no one knows your name: all great :)

### 5/5 — I love it

*2026-03-31, version 10.1.1*

I love it

### 5/5 — Much much better

*2026-03-17, version 10.10.3*

Big improvement over last season.

### 5/5 — Perfect

*2025-12-06, version 10.7.0*

I use it to watch my rangers and yanks play and the ads are good and it only freezes once. On other apps it freezes over 50 times but this is good go Rangers

### 5/5 — It works!

*2025-11-13, version 10.6.0*

Not sure why everyone is review bombing this, it streams the Knicks games perfectly fine with no issues

### 5/5 — Works well

*2025-10-17, version 10.5.0*

It’s reliable!

### 5/5 — Worst Streaming App I’ve ever used

*2025-09-24, version 10.4.0*

Game plays for two minutes and then freezes. I deleted the app and reinstalled, same problem. Switched from iPhone 15 to iPhone 17, same problem.

### 5/5 — Love the Gotham Sports App!

*2025-07-06, version 10.2.0*

I love the convenience of the Gotham app when I’m not home or near my TV. I can catch Yankee games and others when I visit my family too!! Previously had the YES App and the transition was seamless.
