### 5/5 — Everything National sports

*2026-08-29, version 10.22.0*

All year long, full coverage of team, replays of elite players, great guest interviews

### 3/5 — UX

*2026-08-25, version 10.21.0*

Too many asks for information

### 1/5 — Highlights playback is terrible

*2026-08-22, version 10.21.0*

The app barely function. I have to restart my device every time I leave the app then want to come back in or the app won’t load.

### 5/5 — Sports

*2026-08-09, version 10.21.0*

Works great on my iPad! The ease of switching between sporting events I enjoy is great! Thrilled with the overall app

### 3/5 — MLB

*2026-08-06, version 10.21.0*

Too many commercials. Some times during the live action of an inning.

### 1/5 — Worse than poor!

*2026-07-22, version 10.20.0*

I’ve had enough. From constantly failing and crashing to endlessly demanding logins to which it NEVER reads the credentials, I’ve had enough of this sorry excuse for a media app. Don’t let this waste of my time become a waste of yours.

### 1/5 — Unusable

*2026-07-20, version 10.20.0*

This app keeps devolving. Video plays auto ally in full screen if you’re trying to read an article, making it impossible to read the article. You have to go out of the articles to read another. Seriously, does anyone in whatever third world country ever test this app and use it?

### 2/5 — Poor quality

*2026-07-19, version 10.20.0*

Got it for the World Cup.  Watching on a hardwired Apple tv with plenty of bandwidth.    The video is pixilated and blurry.   Also the audio and video is out of sync but who knows if that’s this apps fault.

### 1/5 — Glitches

*2026-07-16, version 10.20.0*

App has become unusable

### 1/5 — Cannot Access

*2026-07-13, version 10.20.0*

Constantly Receive Message that NBC is Unavailable. I hold NBC GOLD—UNIVERSAL and Peacock Subscriptions. Worthless
