Heheheheheheheheheheheheheheh meme ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Rubbish *2024-05-30* Doesn’t work properly on my iPad. When opening an article, I have to rotate the screen to portrait to be able to see any text below the feature image, and even then I can’t read/ see all the text (even when scrolling). Photo galleries often won’t work too, along with many other glitches. It’s made the app almost pointless to have. ### 1/5 — App *2024-05-07, version 5.4.2* Seems it’s all about AFLW and VFLW. Little about the mens teams. Appears the club is caught up with the woke brigade. ### 1/5 — Ticketmaster doesn’t give access *2024-03-16, version 5.4.0* Tried linking my membership to electronic version. Redirect page to Ticketmaster doesn’t let you get pass email and password. Very frustrated….maybe I should give up the club membership if I’m going to be stuffed around by a third party. I support the Hawks with a club, AFL & MCC memberships. Not happy…🤬 ### 1/5 — No numbers on players ?? *2024-03-16, version 5.4.0* No numbers on players ?? How am I gonna know new players?? ### 1/5 — Poor *2024-03-02, version 5.4.0* Slow to post news Clumsy to navigate Difficult to communicate via ### 1/5 — Feedback *2022-10-12, version 5.0.8* Zero interest in AFLW content ### 1/5 — Worst app *2022-02-04, version 4.12.1* I have created apps myself so know what is possible. This is the worst app going around. No intuitive, slow, too much. Bad bad bad. Will delete after this. ### 1/5 — Too convoluted *2019-05-30, version 4.9.2* If unnesecary pictures everywhere. And too many menus ### 2/5 — Telstra *2025-10-28, version 5.5.7* Very poor reception ### 2/5 — Minimal information *2025-01-08, version 5.4.5* Not much is update in this app. There are lots of current stories on social media posts but very little reaches the app. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Awesome app *2026-07-23* I love this app so much because I just updated and I turned on notifications. This morning I was informed that Mitch Lewis would be staying until the end of 2030 and I ran up and down the hallway pumping my fist in the air (I love Mitch Lewis). I was informed about the ins and outs and everything in between.
