Slow

The site is slow, results are slower than other sites, not a great deal to read unless they fleece you with about £40 a month but I still love the Racing Post app

harassment

Why every time
need rating after bet😖

Mr D Pugh

Great read every day

Mr

Outstanding news, reviews and form data with replays

?

A section that listed your favourite trainers with runners at a particular meeting…

Gosden…3
or Gosden - 0 runners

Be easier/simpler than trawling through the whole card?

Love Racing Post…

Frequency

It should be five stars for the Post, but since I am now asked to do this daily, the stars will diminish!!

Once great now horrible garbage

This used to be the best racing app, objectively. Fun text commentary, easy to view racing…

For some reason, progressively over time it’s gone to the point of being unusable. The UI is so bad, might be the worst UI of any app ever, there is no text chat function, no radio function… it’s simply an app to push affiliates / gambling and like the owners pocket.

Do not recommend. Use the browser or any of their competitors. I’d rate 0 if I could

Improvements

The app is very slow when I’m changing to a different page, can sometimes take up to 5 seconds to change. Sometimes I think it hasn’t worked so press again and then it jumps to another page

Why bother

So annoying virtually any story and you have to subscribe. Hardly worth going on nowadays

I used to buy a paper a day when it was£1.80or less and loved it. I’m sorry to say I feel ripped off now
I am a member but I pick and choose when I sign in
I don’t need it for tips
I like it for breeding and racing
Thank you

Slow

Very slow a lot of the time, video of racing just goes black screen. Then have to close app and re open again. Sometimes 3 times for it to work.

5 star

Great app also my go to place to place my bet

Ok but search option fault

It’s ok but can you sort the search function out on the app mine comes back with no results everytime I type a horse or jockey etc

Appalling

Slowest App ever to have been created-constantly & I mean CONSTANTLY buffering -pages always defaulting to the home page when you toggle away. Absolutely shocking customer service- non existent- why waste your time?!?

Racing not playing at most meetings, and keep getting logged out

Sick to death of being logged out, and live racing not being played at most meetings, having to going on my Ladbrokes app to watch the racing

Probably the best of all bookmakers I have many many of them and it’s up there the worst by far is Skybet

Great Cards,Easy to Read and Brilliant Up to Date News

Not worth £50/month

OK I’ve had enough of paying a substantially high price for an app that is not only mediocre, but has also become slow and unreliable.

1. Despite being an Ultimate member, 90% of the notifications I click, take me to a page which remains behind a paywall, telling me I can subscribe to access the content. And yes, I am logged in.
I shouldn’t then have to click back to the homepage, and then navigate the app to find the article which the notification should have taken me to in the first place.
2. The app has become increasingly slow over the last 12 months or so. User experience should come first - not ads for gambling site adverts.
3. If I’m paying £50/month I should not be inundated with Ads. There should at least be an option to opt out of seeing them.
4. This is the Racing Post. The year is 2026. And we STILL cannot manage horses in our Tracker via the mobile app. This is absolutely shameful.
5. Constant logouts. I suggest changing the session time to at least 30 days. Having to login every couple of days is ridiculous.
6. Annoyingly keep being redirected to homepage after clicking through to a horses profile from a race card: clicking back should go back to the race you were viewing previously, not to the homepage, requiring you to then navigate back to the race you were viewing again.
7. On occasion when clicking back from a horses profile to the race you were viewing, it does indeed take you back to that race - but it always scrolls right back to the top of the race. Another annoying thing to note.

Whilst I note the Tracker on mobile is likely a big task, you’ve had YEARS to bring the app up to date and appear to have made zero progress in this regard.

Bugs and UI/UX however; there is absolutely no excusing.

At the end of this season my subscription will not be renewed unless I see huge improvements to the development of the Racing Post mobile app.

I would also urge everyone else to consider doing the same. Perhaps when revenue is damaged they might actually pull their fingers out and give us something that’s worth the money.

Can’t log in despite £50/month sub, given up, will just use browser instead

Video error message

I’m sick of this app showing an error message instead of streaming a race. Incredibly frustrating. Seems to apply mostly (only?) to races broadcast on RTV but that’s a lot of races and you just never know if it’s going to work.
