### 2/5 — Disappointing experience

*2025-03-04, version 1.3.7*

Live coverage is serviceable in 2025 but they have basically no content in the app. There’s a very small selection of content. You can’t even watch SNY’s own original programming on demand

### 2/5 — Constantly freezes up

*2025-03-04, version 1.3.7*

I live alone, have a really fast internet yet this app constantly freezes up and I have to restart. Impossible to enjoy watching a ballgame. Terrible!  Seems I am not alone…how about you fix this already!!!

### 1/5 — Account Creation

*2024-12-09*

Go through the process of creating an account by entering name, email, verify password, confirm password. Then hit submit just to have the screen to enter the confirmation number disappear and send me to the login screen. Enter my credentials only for it to say “Enter confirmation number” yet there is no screen to enter confirmation number. Tried creating another use login thinking maybe it may work, but nope same issue all over again. Very disappointed with this app which is useless to me. I was excited for this app hoping I could watch games while traveling for work using the app, but that wouldn’t be the case. FIX IT before the 2025 season starts.

### 1/5 — Can’t open in wide screen on iPad

*2024-12-03, version 1.3.7*

No matter what you try the image is only a fraction of the screen.  When you press on the icon to open to full screen, it opens for a fraction of a second and closes again.  Lousy app!

### 1/5 — trash

*2024-11-10, version 1.3.7*

this is the worst app ever i tried to give it a zero star but thats not possible so i gave it a 1 do not download this, its a waste of your time they need to invest into another app and get a better job this is terrible thank you next

### 2/5 — Missing AirPlay/Chromecast

*2024-10-11, version 1.3.7*

This app gets the job done when it comes to watching Mets games but missing the ability to AirPlay to a TV is a problem. Any streaming app should allow this especially when it comes to live sports.

### 2/5 — Not good for iPads

*2024-10-06, version 1.3.7*

It is terrible for iPads which is kinda of dumb being that I’d rather watch on the iPad than a small iPhone screen.

### 1/5 — Terrible

*2024-09-30, version 1.3.7*

Terrible app, can’t watch anything because the videos keep freezing, (nice blue buffering ring though ). What’s makes matters worse is games are blacked out on your cable provider app ( if you have one ) so you’re forced to use the SNY app which doesn’t work, so you miss out on all fronts. Sad that in today’s tech driven world SNY can’t provide a decent app.

### 2/5 — It’s ok

*2024-09-14*

I like that I can watch the Mets using the app when I’m away from home. But I have to sign out of my TV provider and then sign in again every two days. I’ll get a little lock symbol next to the “watch” button and have to log out and log back in again. There’s no legitimate reason for that. The app is extremely slow. It pauses for no reason and then takes a hundred years to fast forward. The fact that an anti Mazi Pillip ad is still playing from February 2024 is hilarious. Every once in a while, I think it’s gone, but then it comes roaring back!

### 1/5 — Terrible

*2024-09-10, version 1.3.7*

Says no Internet connection even though there is and every other app works. I’m a Mets fan but contact the YES network for tips on how to make a proper functioning app.

### 1/5 — Deserves a one star rating

*2024-09-10, version 1.3.7*

Besides from constantly freezing up and streaming hiccups, now pop up adds interrupting the games causing you to force stop the app and restart it over and over to watch the games.
C’mon Keith and Gary tell the powers to be to give the fans a break.

### 1/5 — ZERO question, worst streaming service

*2024-08-28, version 1.3.7*

Thus app is by far the worst sports streaming app of all. 
• No screencasting/airplay compatibility (if you want to stream on a TV or tablet, good luck)
• Poor interface for viewing
• Delayed cast—receiving ESPN updates before scoring n plays

### 2/5 — Horrible for iPad

*2024-08-19, version 1.3.7*

No landscape mode is honestly inexcusable. Who is watching a baseball game (really, any video) in portrait mode. When i flip my iPad portrait mode just gets flipped lol. Trying to get the stream in full screen and landscape is very difficult.

### 1/5 — TV Provider login Fail - Zero Stars!

*2024-08-08, version 1.3.7*

Can’t even enter my Verizon Fios credentials on my iPad. As soon as I choose Fios it errors out. Same happens on the iphone. Says Error - Something went wrong, please select another provider to login. Yeah… cuz we all have multiple tv providers. Works fine on every other tv app - just not SNY.

### 1/5 — Zero Stars

*2024-07-20, version 1.3.7*

Horrible app. If you are lucky enough for it to work you’ll probably miss whatever game your watching cause they’re playing commercials instead. Super delayed. No Samsung tv app. iPhone app needs to be modernized. Awful experience all around.

### 1/5 — Horrible

*2024-07-13, version 1.3.5*

It’s too bad there’s no option for zero stars. 
I don’t know what “bug fixes” were addressed in the latest revision but the bug that constantly requires a login is still there. 
Here is the process 
1 Select SNY using Firestick
2 User is advised that he or she must sign in 
3 A QR code and an alphanumeric code are displayed
4 User goes to the website to enter the code
5 User enters the code 
6 The page continues to be displayed 
7 The only way to attempt to watch SNY is to return to the previous screen which of course is still requiring the user to log in or log out which then returns to #3. Loop until happy
8 Eventually the user can view SNY and there’s a commercial for an election that occurred over a year ago.

### 1/5 — Wish it worked

*2024-07-11, version 1.3.5*

Still having the exact same issues cited in previous reviews about being totally unable to watch live games / shows. I’m logged into both the SNY app and my TV provider and it still reads an error message

### 1/5 — Zero Stars

*2024-07-10, version 1.3.5*

I named this review Zero Stars because if I could give this app zero stars I would.  I don’t think it has ever successfully broadcasted a Mets game on ANY device I’ve ever tried it on.  And it’s been that way for the last two seasons.  PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE make a better app that actually broadcast a game…it’s really not that hard.

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — No more Mets game, why bother having an app?

*2025-04-06, version 1.3.7*

Disgusting to remove games from being able to watch on Apple TV.  Can no longer watch games on AppleTV with my cable subscription.  So guess what?  I am no longer watching the Mets 5 nights per week.  CYA.

### 1/5 — I thought Gotham was a pain

*2025-04-04, version 1.3.7*

Putting MLB network between viewers and Mets is a very bad move.  Now it’s proving impossible to watch, and I have FIOS which should allow me to continue to stream the games.

### 1/5 — App useless

*2025-04-02, version 1.3.7*

In it now for cash only! What a disappointment this turned out to be!
Can’t use the app because they sold it to MLB. Thank god I pay for SNY on Directv or I’d never see a game.
The blackout policy is bas enough. I’m blacked out of 4 teams- Cleveland, Pittsburgh, and both Ny teams. SNY used to be cool! Now it just reminds me of the Fn GREED OF THE OWNERS! 
I’ll go see the aaa team when there in town here, but until the blackout policy is changed soon, the Mets will never get a dime from me!

### 1/5 — What a joke

*2025-04-01, version 1.3.7*

SNY now on the MLB app is the single worst decision they’ve ever made. No longer able to watch games even though I have it as part of my tv subscription. Unable to stream. They have ruined baseball.

### 1/5 — You can longer stream Mets games on SNY app, instead you need MLB app

*2025-03-27*

I currently paid $250 a month for Optimum TV cable service which includes SNY as a channel. For the last several years, that would be able to watch all the Mets games live on SNY app by logging in with my TV provider. Today’s opening day I went to do the same thing as I always do and it says SNY no longer streams Mets games instead you need the MLB app and you will be able to access SNY streaming there. I thought all the directions downloaded the MLB app logged in with my TV provider. Went to go click on watch Mets live game but it won’t play and keeps saying “This content is currently not available” I don’t know what that means but I swear if it’s due to a black out issue since I live locally then this decision to change to the MLB app makes absolutely no sense because absolutely every local Mets fan from New Jersey, New York, Connecticut, etc will never be able to stream live games… why do successful apps always seem to make horrible decisions and ruin their reputation. Just keep it simple like before. I’m frustrated beyond belief right now!

### 1/5 — Terrible

*2025-03-27, version 1.3.7*

App wasn’t great to begin with but it’s absolutely atrocious since they signed a streaming deal with MLB, now your forced to buy a subscription to watch baseball games if your not in your own home watching SNY through your cable provider, and who knows if that will even work because every time you try to link your cable provider to the MLB app you get an error, absolute garbage.

### 1/5 — Unable to Create Account

*2025-03-22, version 1.3.7*

I was't impressed with the account creation process either. The app has a very poor account creation interface, sorry to say.

### 1/5 — Watch Anywhere, not for real

*2025-03-14, version 1.3.7*

I have a Verizon account on Long Island, It wont let me watch when signed into my account while in Florida, I have the current app.  Get your stuff together, this is the same issue people have reports for years.  I’m in Florida on an extended stay, but my account in New York is still valid.

### 1/5 — Do not even waste your time

*2025-01-11, version 1.3.7*

I see why this app has the ratings it has. I downloaded to watch one game while on the go and couldn’t even get past the login screen. I logged in through my provider and it never loaded. Just stayed in the login screen loading. Deleted immediately.

### 1/5 — Not universal

*2024-12-11, version 1.3.7*

How in 2024 is this app not universal for iPad and iPhone? It’s literally the only streaming app I’ve seen which doesn’t support iPad. Ridiculous.

## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated)

### 5/5 — Don’t understand complaints

*2024-06-05, version 1.3.5*

Way better than the nbc sports app.

### 5/5 — TV provider

*2022-12-08, version 1.2.1*

Please advise if you are going to include xinfinity as one of your tv providers there are quite a few met fans down here in Florida that would really appreciate having SNY a taste of home here

### 5/5 — Sny beta is killing it.

*2022-04-26, version 1.0.3*

Might be a little laggy when trying to turn on the Mets games, but not often. Im sure this platform will only get better and better.

### 5/5 — Amazing App

*2022-03-24, version 1.0*

Great user experience. The video quality is phenomenal whether using LTE or WiFi. Love the video player’s ability to pop out without interrupting the stream while I text or check a different app.

### 4/5 — Sports

*2025-03-12, version 1.3.7*

This app is great I can watch all content via direct tv log in the sad news is when this app goes away I’ll lose SNY for good since I don’t live in NY TV market

### 4/5 — Great so far!

*2022-03-27, version 1.0*

Love that I can watch streams without the blackout bug on NBC Sports app!  Only thing I am waiting for is ability to rewind live streams so I can rewatch plays if I was looking away and ability to cast to TV.  No connection issues whatsoever with a new app is very refreshing.

### 4/5 — Just missing Chromecast option

*2022-03-24, version 1.0*

I’m sure this will be fixed eventually since the app is brand new. Same issue occurred with the MSG GO app originally. There’s no option to chromecast what your streaming. Once that option is available, the app will be great!

### 4/5 — Pretty Good

*2022-03-24, version 1.0*

Seems to work fine. No issues with loading live tv and the subtitles is a nice touch as well. Only wish is to be able to cast to a tv. But since the app is new I’m sure that’s something that’ll come with time. Will change to 5 stars once that’s accessible

### 3/5 — Why???

*2025-03-29, version 1.3.7*

I never had a problem with this app. Could watch Mets games and other programming with no problem.  Since the switch to the MLB app I’ve had nothing but problems. MLB app is a mess. SNY may have gotten paid by MLB but the viewers got screwed.

### 3/5 — Love to watch the Mets… but

*2024-04-01, version 1.3.5*

This app needs to be optimized for iPad

 it frequently tells me that i need to sign into my TV provider even though I already am

It always lags a bit when I go into the split screen mode on my phone (small gripe but seems fixable)

Lacks smoothness overall, it seems like SNY didn’t put a lot of effort into the details of the app

Some scoring and news updates would be really cool

I downloaded the YES app to watch one of the Mets/Yankees games in spring training (it wasn’t aired on SNY) and if I could have that exact same app for the Mets, this review would be 5/5 stars. Anyone working on this app at SNY can watch a Yankees game on there to see what I mean
