### 4/5 — Brackets not loading

*2026-07-07, version 3.0.19*

Please do something with brackets and shorts, they don’t working without VPN. And also predicting system too

### 4/5 — Chinese plz

*2026-06-20*

we need Chinese ❤️thank you

### 2/5 — Bug et ne ce met pas à jour

*2026-06-07*

Le site HLTV est une référence pour suivre CS malheureusement l’application a tendance à ne pas changé certain contenu sans raison et peut mettre plusieurs heures avant que les matchs soit actualisés. Vraiment dommage car une application comme celle-ci a vraiment beaucoup de potentiel

**Developer response:** Data is updated at the same time, as the website. If it takes hours for your data to update, you need to verify you have internet connection, and are not using a VPN

### 4/5 — Language

*2026-05-24*

Chinese plz

### 2/5 — No VPN’s

*2026-05-21, version 3.0.14*

Good app when it works but it doesn’t work with an active VPN. So you must browse unprotected…

### 2/5 — Widgets not like before

*2026-04-25*

Widgets have been removed in the new update, first you could just glance at the live widget and get news now its completely removed for no reason

They re-added it since the new update on apr 25th but no option to have it like before, big and only 1 headline what an unnecessary change.

**Developer response:** Hey mate, thanks for the review. Widgets are re-introduced in the latest update :)

### 4/5 — Group stage and playoff

*2026-04-16*

Can’t see group stage and playoffs brackets, just grey screen, no information. Please fix it

**Developer response:** Hey mate, is this still a problem?

### 4/5 — Widget

*2026-04-02*

Very good Ui overhaul but lost the widget

**Developer response:** Hey mate, thanks for the review. Widgets are re-introduced in the latest update :)

### 2/5 — new design and removed player /team flag

*2026-03-23, version 3.0.9*

design became unintuitive and app lagging… removed team and players county flag is L

### 3/5 — APLICAÇÃO BOM MAS…

*2026-02-03*

POR FAVOR COLOQUEM O MINI-MAPA AQUI TAMBÉM, IGUAL NO COMPUTADOR.

### 2/5 — Many bugs that are not fixed

*2025-12-16*

I actually like the app for its simple navigation and notification feature. But every time I use the app, it frustrates me with its constant bugs. It would be great if someone would fix them. 

1. The app stops media playback. So if you're listening to music or a podcast and then open HLTV, playback pauses. Probably the advertising banners are causing this. Extremely annoying. 

2. Cookie consent can only be answered with "Accept all," as further options are located behind the Liquid Glass navigation bar and the modal is not scrollable. This is not only annoying, but also definitely illegal. 

3. Notifications only work on the device on which the app was last installed. So if you first install the app on your iPhone and then on your iPad, all notifications will only appear on the iPad. You then have to reinstall the app on your iPhone to get the notifications back. 

Please fix that. Then the app will be really useful.

### 2/5 — No (hs)

*2025-12-04, version 2.14.1*

Why doesn’t the scoreboard show (hs)

### 1/5 — Spoilers

*2026-08-01, version 3.0.22*

The app constantly sends out notifications to spoil any game you follow. You can turn off end of game results but they’ll still send you notifications through articles to spoil it.

### 1/5 — Miserabler Support

*2026-07-14*

Seit Monaten versuche ich HLTV zu kontaktieren. Erst „unter Gamern“, dann auf Social Media und schlussendlich formell via E-Mail 📧. Es kam nie eine Antwort. Und schlussendlich wurde ich sogar auf Facebook geblockt weil keine Nachrichten mehr durchgingen. In meinen Augen eine komplett unseriöse Scheininstitution, welche sich an keine EU Richtlinien oder gar Datenschutz hält und schlussendlich mit diesen ihr Geld verdient.

### 1/5 — Doesn’t Work Anymore

*2026-06-25*

Used to love the app but now it just freezes. Can’t search up players. Matches won’t update. Not even usable

Update: Devs responded to my review with “disable your VPN mate” when I never had a VPN on while using the app. Since the app is now working alright I’m sure the issue was due to the amount of traffic from the major and falling apart. I would completely understand that struggle and it being difficult but blaming the consumers is just embarrassing and a bad look for HLTV. Sad to see

**Developer response:** Disable your VPN mate

Update: Whenever the app is not working, it's due to your device not receiving the data from our servers. This is either because of users using VPNs which are blocked, or can be caused by temporarily Cloudflare issues in your region.

### 1/5 — Frozen

*2026-06-15, version 3.0.18*

Does not load, frozen… unusable. Always use website.

### 1/5 — Nothing loads

*2026-05-20, version 3.0.14*

The app use to work just fine, all of a sudden nothing loads its just the spinning loading circle on my screen, ive closed and reopen the app, ive deleted and redownloaded the app but nothing seems to work.

### 1/5 — Mise à jour

*2026-05-11*

Pas actualisé en temps réel depuis les dernières mise à jour

**Developer response:** Can you elaborate further? No changes has been made regarding the data at all.

### 1/5 — Terrible Update

*2026-03-20, version 3.0.9*

Laggy and new interface looks too crowded, new information is for sure nice but there’s definitely a better way to implement this

### 1/5 — Приложение не работает

*2026-02-11*

Похоже разработчики забили на него и нет никакой абсолютно отдачи, отставание от букмекера колоссальное, уже карту закончили, а у них все первая половина

**Developer response:** Hey mate, can you reach out on app@hltv.org and we will try to understand what the problem is :)

### 1/5 — Can’t read news on mobile

*2025-11-16*

Can’t read news on mobile

**Developer response:** Hey mate. Try updating the app, everything should work as expected :)
