SVNS2 & 3 is important to rugby fans and necessary to build a world wide fan base. Please as to the app. ### 3/5 — If only there was a calendar *2026-01-31* Why is there an option to subscribe to a calendar to follow your favorite teams, if the subscription is just an inaccurate “all day” event that doesn’t tell you when your teams are playing, what day they’re playing, and what time the day starts? It would be nice if there was some sort of calendar sync so I didn’t have to keep checking the app or website for updates. If you do know when your teams are playing but can’t watch, the follow along live tab is great. It updates pretty quickly and accurately. It’s a great feature. ### 3/5 — Grade B for the effort in the USA *2025-02-05* I applaud the effort, and we Americans need to be grateful for any international rugby we can find. But this app won’t refresh when during tournaments (at least the last 2 - Perth and Cape Town). I could see the updated results on websites but this app was stuck in time. I tried rebooting, deleting the app and downloading, nothing worked. Maybe poor cookie management. Anyway, please fix that. Cheers. ### 2/5 — Screen covered by an ad *2024-12-07* This used to be a good app, but now about a quarter of the screen is covered by an ad for a TV company, blocking the info under it. Another is no option to get rid of it - just stays even if you click the accept button. So disappointing!! ### 2/5 — App Links Don’t Work *2024-06-26, version 3.0.7* Links to men’s standings doesn’t work. The font, design and graphics look like they were designed in the 1980s by some 1st year student. ### 4/5 — Could be better *2024-05-04, version 3.0.6* Has all the info I need but it would be much better if when switching between tabs it remembers where you used to be on that tab instead of always defaulting to the home page. ### 1/5 — Go back to the old app *2024-03-03, version 3.0.5* Since the new update this app is annoying and hard to use! The old layout was better. ### 1/5 — Stupid new app *2024-02-25, version 3.0.4* The last ap was wonderful! Had the schedule, had the ability to be notified when my teams played & was very easy to use!! This new ap is awful!! Where is the schedule???? Starting playoffs and no schedule to follow, no one knows who plays who when?? It is not user friendly!! The other ap wasn’t broken why change for this useless one!! ### 1/5 — Update *2024-02-16, version 3.0.4* Personally I feel it was a step in the wrong direction. ### 2/5 — Inconsistent behavior and slo or no score updates *2024-01-28* Just a few videos, which is disappointing, but the worst part is the results are not updated - not in real time, and as of now, not at all. The event in Perth ended a while ago but the final results are still not showing in the app. Full disclosure - I’m in the USA so I’m used to crappy coverage of international rugby. Peacock is sucking the big wazoo with their coverage of Perth as well, sigh.. ### 1/5 — Terrible, Hard to navigate and horrible colors *2024-01-28* App is very hard to navigate, prefer old app over this. Dont know what’s up with horrible choice of colors in the app. Deleting this app for sure ### 1/5 — Garbage app *2024-01-22, version 3.0.3* The freaking app says LA Sevens is from March 2-3 while the website says 1-3. I bought my air tickets based on the app and won’t arrive late at LA. Therefore will definitely miss one or two Fiji games. ### 3/5 — Bring back the notifications! *2023-12-30* Love the app but in the older version it was possible to be notified every time my favorite team was starting a match, which is very useful if I don’t want to watch the whole day of tournament. Would love to see that feature back! ### 1/5 — Terrible User Interface *2023-12-19, version 3.0.3* I want the old app back. This is rubbish. ### 4/5 — Miss the old app *2023-12-16* Good app to watch and follow the hsbc 7s on. It’s just a shame the old app was better. ### 2/5 — New app design is hard to use *2023-12-15, version 3.0.3* The old app was really helpful. The new design makes it hard to find information and visually tough to read. ### 1/5 — New version *2023-12-10, version 3.0.2* Hate the layout of the current app! The colors are awful and confusing! Please bring back the old setup! ### 1/5 — If it’s not broken don’t Fix it *2023-12-10, version 3.0.2* The update of this app is terrible. It is so cluttered and hard to figure out what’s in there and where to find the results. Acronyms are used which are hard to understand. Plain and simple they should revert back to the old app ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Open of app *2026-05-03, version 3.1.0* Struggling to open app I find it frustrating because love sevens ### 1/5 — Fiddly app where little works *2026-02-04, version 3.1.0* Adding matches to calendar doesn’t work. Notifications don’t work. Which clown designer this? ### 1/5 — Slack updating *2026-01-30, version 3.1.0* New season first round and it has stopped showing matches. Poor yet again. 👎🏻👎🏻👎🏻 Singapore this weekend and the app is not showing the pool groups. Get your act together. ### 1/5 — Abominable *2025-12-07, version 3.1.0* This app on iOS is a total mess. Unbelievably annoying bad, nonsensical, disorganised, and inoperable. Rather remove it altogether!!! ### 1/5 — Slack updating *2025-11-29, version 3.1.0* New season first round and it has stopped showing matches. Poor yet again. ### 1/5 — No support *2025-11-29, version 3.1.0* The worst piece of app. If you click on support then that does not even work, that besides the app info being inaccurate and not updated. ### 1/5 — App froze *2025-11-27, version 3.1.0* When I try to open the app it doesn’t move off the opening screen. It’s like it is on a never ending loop. ### 1/5 — Unusable *2025-07-04, version 3.0.9* Worst app I use. Broken links everywhere. Inane headings like “Rugby”. Spent twenty minutes trying to find the final results table for the season. All the links were broken but there were a million video clips of human interest nonsense. This app is a disorganized mess. I give up. ### 1/5 — Worst App *2025-05-13, version 3.0.9* The worst app I have ever used. ### 1/5 — Not a User friendly App *2024-11-30* The layout of this App is terrible. Way too busy and choked by so much irrelevant content that it’s almost impossible just to find latest results. I simply wanted to find out what’s been happening in Dubai - been on for 10 minutes and still trying to find the results page. Fewer videos and more directly relevant info would be very welcome. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Matches *2025-03-30, version 3.0.9* Where are the Hong Kong matches, why can’t I see the list of all the fixtures? ### 5/5 — Great design *2023-12-31* The app works great, the design is well thought out and is awesome visually. ### 5/5 — HSBC 7s App for the World Series 7s *2023-05-21* Excellent app and site to stay in touch with the World Series and understand what is going on. Helps with the build up to tournament days as well as live coverage and watching back with reviews. Great to watch! ### 5/5 — Notifications *2023-05-14, version 2.6.12* Hi, would be nice if notifications come with women or men on it somehow. All look the same. Perhaps a M or W. Otherwise enjoy the app. Regards Graeme ### 5/5 — Excelente app para acompanhar o campeonato *2023-05-13, version 2.6.12* Excelente app para acompanhar o campeonato ### 5/5 — Great App *2023-05-07, version 2.6.12* This App works for me. Its great for keeping up to live games, standing etc. Love this App great work. ### 5/5 — W.p.i.am *2023-04-02, version 2.6.12* Greater app real-time and up-to-date info immediately. ### 5/5 — Muy bueno *2023-02-23, version 2.6.11* La app es muy buena y la información que brinda es bien detallada ### 5/5 — Great app *2022-05-18, version 2.6.10* Love this app!! ### 5/5 — V *2022-04-17, version 2.6.10* Awesome app. Keeps me on track by reminding me when games are on. So very needed with all the different time zones games are played in. Can see easily standings/live results/all results of matches played and my time of next match. Just love it - go Blitzbokke!! --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/). User reviews are verbatim App Store reviews.
