### 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.

### 3/5 — App freezing

*2023-03-11, version 2.0*

It would be a great app if it didn’t freeze constantly

### 1/5 — Needs update

*2023-03-11, version 2.0*

Unfortunately we all have the same problem, thought it was my iPad glad to hear it’s not. First terminate was lousy. Redcrest is unwatchable. Buffering constantly.

### 1/5 — Need to update for iOS 16.3.1 on iPad 8th Gen

*2023-03-11*

The video playback works fine using iPhone, but will runs about five minutes then crashes. Love watching using app if only I could. Using Safari web page to watch and it works fine. Please fix app or I may as well delete it.

### 2/5 — Junk use the web!

*2023-03-10, version 2.0*

Streaming is horrible on the app. Disconnect problems and have to start over all the time web no problems.

### 1/5 — Live video crashing constantly

*2023-03-09, version 2.0*

I am trying to watch the 2023 Red Crest but the live video player stops playing constantly.

### 1/5 — Need To Fix App

*2023-03-08, version 2.0*

Like To Watch This App But It’s Acting Up Need To Fix It Too Glitch’s….

### 3/5 — Time for an update!

*2023-02-15*

Playback has finally come to a halt! I haven’t been able to get through a complete day without freezing and/or constant crashing. Now, it doesn’t even play any more. An update is past due!

### 4/5 — Make app available on Amazon Fire Stick

*2022-02-21, version 2.0*

App works great on iPhone / iPad.  However when watching on fire stick through the amazon silk app,  it constantly buffers which is a known issue with silk.   Please make the app available for download on fire stick.

### 2/5 — Has good content…probably!! Good tips…maybe!!

*2021-12-14*

Have had the app since it was introduced as avid bass fishing angler/fan/weekend derby junky! Have deleted & re-downloaded at least 5-6 times, when open article or video the stupid ad pops up over 90% of the page, can’t close it out can’t see pic, article, or video. Adv all these sweepstakes so I decide why not, click on each one multiple time, never get more than title. No pic, video, article, rules, sign up form NOTHING. I’d be embarrassed to have my name on this app. Developed by 3rd graders. Don’t pay membership either, bc you get nothing for it. You can watch 2020s tournaments in 2022 but takes you 6 weeks to do it with 1 episode per week on Saturdays. 2 hrs content: 1hr 35 mins of Gen Tire and JT Ken, 10 min MStone lake break down and 15 mins of competition. You’re just paying Boyds salary and for 20 nitro Z19s. Why are all the real top 80 anglers dying to get back to Elite Series….Hmmm I wonder

### 4/5 — Need Apple TV app

*2021-06-28, version 2.0*

Please add Apple TV functionality to make live streaming easier

### 3/5 — Stable Airplay Tip - Download This

*2021-06-27, version 2.0*

If you have a Google tv, MLF via Airplay works better through this app - AirPlay&UPnP by Softmedia

### 2/5 — Video of tournament Freezes!

*2020-07-12, version 1.6.0*

The video freezes. Checked my internet connection. Definitely not the problem. 

Freeze issue gets worse with every tournament so I assume it’s from so many logged onto the app. Fix would be nice.

### 4/5 — To many notifications

*2020-04-15*

I love the app during tournament weeks but when there aren’t any tournaments I get about 20 notifications PER DAY. It’s way too many. I want to keep notifications turned on but I just get spammed constantly.

### 2/5 — Live stream to airplay device problems.

*2020-03-15, version 1.5.1*

Does anyone have a solution to the live stream watching when trying to send to an airplay device?

### 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

### 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.

### 1/5 — Buggy app that needs updates

*2023-04-14, version 2.0*

Live video constantly stops. I can’t watch more than a couple minutes without the video stopping. I’ll stick to watching it on my browser. It’s unfortunate since Major League Fishing is my favorite

### 1/5 — Terrible

*2023-03-13*

Can’t even watch more than a couple mins of a tournament without the video crashing constantly. I am just getting back into fishing again and thought it would be nice to watch some pros, but app won’t allow for that. Please update and fix the issues!

### 5/5 — Good use

*2022-02-06*

It’s pretty good App to use. I do not have to pull the website for it. But nonetheless I still have to find any bugs or issues that may come up. That’s so far for now! Keep up the good work.

### 5/5 — 👍

*2021-07-06, version 2.0*

Great app! Very helpful videos . I always get to watch the bass pro tour and I watch highlights from every event that happens.No problems!!

### 5/5 — Awesome app

*2020-07-17, version 1.6.0*

You get to watch live tournaments for free and read as many articles as you want.

### 5/5 — Freezes a lot

*2020-03-17*

App is pretty good. Freezes often and no replays of the live event for that day. Would be nice to watch it later and not just a 12 minute highlight!

### 5/5 — Love the MLF for this app

*2020-02-26*

I am loving this app! Super easy to navigate and work through. Score tracker is down right addictive! Live video is my favorite thing on my phone. At any free moment in my days anywhere I’m at while tournament is going on I get to pop it up and watch. Or better yet have it up and on while I’m working on silent and working on other things. What would be awesome is if you could post questions or celebratory comments while watching the video.  I see this app getting better and adapting more an more as the season moves on. Hands down is a big big part of everyone I know loving the MLF new format, just hooks ya right into the action.

### 5/5 — stream ends when...

*2019-06-01, version 1.3.4*

please fix the bug when the app sends an alert during the stream you tap to close the alert and the stream end, take you to score tracker.

### 5/5 — Love MLF

*2019-04-07*

App is super easy to navigate and watching live fishing for 6 days straight will never get old to me. Love this format and am very excited for the future. I wish AAF investors would’ve invested into MLF instead of that garbage football league. Only complaint about the app is if I go to respond to a text the live feed bugs out a little bit and sometimes I have to restart. No big deal though, keep it up y’all.

### 5/5 — Love this app

*2019-03-07, version 1.3.1*

I can’t quit watching this!!

### 5/5 — Great app for every fishing fan

*2019-01-31*

Love this app and how you can watch some the best go at it. Only thing make better is if I could chromecast the feed to the TV.

### 5/5 — Major League Fishing is the Game Changer!

*2018-02-09*

This new MLF app is a great complement to the mobile and desktop web site versions. Great video and more... Excited to see what is next!
