### 1/5 — MLF

*2025-08-08, version 2.0*

Junk

### 1/5 — Fix This Thing

*2025-03-28, version 2.0*

I’m forever having to reboot, delete, reload only to come back to the same screen weigh in that’s in process. Finally give up. I truly enjoy the count em all format. But this app needs attention. I’ve been on here since MLF started.

### 1/5 — Pissing me off

*2025-01-31, version 2.1*

I’m trying to cast to the tv and every 15 seconds it goes to a commercial. Did it yesterday and today! I can’t watch it on my tv.

### 1/5 — Can’t watch

*2024-03-16*

I can’t watch live on my tv it keeps on freezing

### 2/5 — Used to be good

*2024-02-12*

Last year 2023 the app was great you could follow your anglers and see who you had now in 2024 you can’t follow your anglers you picked with their weights like last year.

### 2/5 — Video

*2024-02-04*

The video on the app won’t expand. 
Have to go to website to get full iPad picture on video.

### 1/5 — What happened to Fantasy Fishing?

*2024-01-26*

This season fantasy fishing is really bad. I went to make my team and noticed there is no where to make a league with my husband. Every year we compete to see who scores the highest and now it’s not an option. The once colorful interface is gone. No longer do you have the option to see your current tournament team? Also when you chose it no longer tells you a standing or where they are from. It’s like half the app for fantasy fishing went missing. Please bring back the old way.

### 1/5 — App not working properly

*2023-06-07*

I m having problems with the MLF app. When watching a tournament it will play 2-3 minutes then cut off. I have apps no problems. I deleted the app and and reloaded it and rebooted my phone. Still doing the same. I just want to watch the tournament. I m a big fan

### 1/5 — App malfunction

*2023-05-07, version 2.0*

Does not work 2min into video screen blacks out won’t show picture

### 1/5 — Constantly crashing

*2023-04-27*

I miss half of the dang broadcast because it lags out every 5 minutes. Have to reload the page and every time you do forces you to watch an add. I miss 2 minutes every 5 minutes. And there is no feature to rewind and see what you missed, don’t get to see most of my favorite anglers’ catches because of the lagging. Always seems to lag out when something big happens. Very frustrating.
