### 3/5 — UX

*2026-08-25, version 10.21.0*

Too many asks for information

### 3/5 — MLB

*2026-08-06, version 10.21.0*

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

### 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.

### 2/5 — No complete tour coverage

*2026-07-07, version 10.20.0*

A mediocre app. Covers only the most inane sports like soccer or basketball. To watch something meaningful, like the Tour de France, it’s nearly nonexistent. You can only get segments of it. And then it’s very difficult to find those as you have to hunt all over the app. I do not recommend this app.

### 3/5 — WNBA

*2026-06-16, version 10.20.0*

It says that the WNBA game is streaming on the app but the game is nowhere to be found. I paid for WNBA league pass and I am unable to watch

### 3/5 — Doesn’t go back to English

*2026-06-13, version 10.20.0*

I watch one playback in Spanish, and then EVERYTHING is in Spanish. How do I get it to change back to English?

### 2/5 — Please Improve Navigation Functionality

*2026-06-10, version 10.20.0*

I love the information on this app, especially PFT. However, it is possibly the least navigable app I have ever used. If you want to read an article and want to read another one you have to click on “Home” then go back to “Articles” and start your scrolling all over again. Video clips will also randomly play while I am reading and will restart after closing them out.

### 1/5 — Verizon

*2026-06-06, version 10.19.0*

Won’t connect to Verizon account.

### 1/5 — Glitchy streaming

*2026-06-05, version 10.19.0*

Constantly getting 10+ second pauses and it’s brutal. This happens on my home WiFi where every other video streaming app works perfectly well.

### 1/5 — Political Chris simms

*2026-06-01, version 10.19.0*

Can no longer stomach watching Chris Simms. He’s so political it’s disgusting. I always watch him for the football now I can’t even do that. He ruined his own show. I guess he just couldn’t help himself.

### 1/5 — Useless

*2026-05-31, version 10.19.0*

This app doesn’t work at all. I try to sign in to the TV provider and it will not let me. Especially when I am trying to watch something live. It’s useless don’t even download it. And take this from a guy who NEVER leaves reviews on anything.

### 1/5 — Not available

*2026-05-30, version 10.19.0*

Every time I want to watch anything, I get hit with “not available in your area “ I have given up!!

### 1/5 — TERRIBLE

*2026-05-30, version 10.19.0*

You cannot read one paragraph of any article without annoying pop ups of a bunch of sport broadcasters.  Why even write or post an article if you won’t let viewers read it?  These MORON app developers think I want to watch a cast of clowns blow hot air around.  Most of them can’t even play the sport they cover, and are obnoxious just to get clicks.  This has to be the worst sports app available.  Absolutely pathetic.

### 1/5 — Unable to link Verizon account

*2026-05-19, version 10.19.0*

Unable to link Verizon account to the app - the link page does not bring up the login page

### 1/5 — Lazy

*2026-05-17, version 10.19.0*

NBC needs to do better. Years ago it was all I needed to watch most of my games (which is how they advertised it). Then they said I had to get peacock to watch the other half of games. And now only a handful on each and they want me to pay for other services. You’re really just screwing over paying customers at this point. Oh and lastly, the app is the worst. It makes me sign in every time I open it. And it won’t let me sign in on my tv at all - just provides a URL link to sign in that genuinely takes me to a website that doesn’t exist. I am actually baffled by NBC’s inability to make an app that works

### 1/5 — A terrible app

*2026-05-17, version 10.19.0*

This is the only app that REQUIRES me to sign in on a l daily basis. It’s exhausting, frankly. Either the app, NBC or both are broken. A total pain.

### 1/5 — Awful user experience across devices

*2026-05-13, version 10.19.0*

The app says you receive credits for watching “locked content” but you often don’t have the ability to use the credits on the locked content because the option doesn’t present itself.

Slow loading, clumsy UI, and no way to watch the content you want to see.

### 1/5 — NO COVERAGE

*2026-05-10, version 10.19.0*

NO COVERAGE EVERY TIME I TRY AND WATCH ANY GAME IT GIVES ME AN ERROR MESSAGE

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 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.

### 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?

### 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

### 1/5 — What happened to the full Tour de France

*2026-07-10, version 10.20.0*

What happened to the full Tour broadcast? I looked forward to watching the full broadcast and taking a bit out of each day to relax and riding along. Highlights are no substitute

### 1/5 — Doesnt work

*2026-06-30, version 10.20.0*

Tried watching World Cup games and only a black screen. Garbage!

### 1/5 — This app sucks

*2026-06-23, version 10.20.0*

App sucks can’t load anything

### 1/5 — Gets worse with every update

*2026-06-14, version 10.20.0*

This used to be a good app, especially for the NFL coverage, but has gone into the toilet with each update.  I want to read the articles, not get bombarded with stupid pop up conversations with idiots who never played the game.  This has turned into the most pathetic, unusable, and basically worthless app.  Once again a 3rd grade student can produce a better app than the morons at NBC.

### 1/5 — Awful app

*2026-06-10, version 10.20.0*

This app is awful, there’s no way to return to articles unless going back to the main page. Awful,NBC needs to get a better update
