### 1/5 — Useless app

*2023-12-05*

If I could leave a 0 star review I would. You have to login each and every time you use the app. The gameplay options are atrocious and there isn’t an app on smart tvs to watch so what do these people do? They don’t have an airplay option and when you try to do it on your phone, the app autorotates and interrupts the screen mirroring and keeps it from projecting to the tv. This is a trash app, provided by a trash provider, delivering a trash experience to the consumers. You have to log in each time you want to use the app. Just an overall terrible experience

### 1/5 — The WORST Streaming App Imaginable

*2023-12-05*

The entire app development team should be fired. 
Doesn’t integrate with apples ****BUILT IN**** TV provider sign in, so every time you open this app you have to resign in. Oh, and every time you switch apps for too long, or lock your screen, you have to sign in again. They don’t let you airplay, they don’t even let you use PiP (picture in picture). This app is the entire reason most people just resort to streaming elsewhere. Cable is $100/mo on the low end, most of the reason people still pay for it is Geo-Locked sports, and this is the best you can do? Its absolutely despicable. The app is slow, the UI is horrendous, and it works 60% of the time. Not only do i blame cable providers and sportsnet, but the Penguins organization should be ashamed that people have to rely on this terrible app to watch games if they are in city limits.

### 2/5 — Save login info please

*2023-06-03*

Why does it log me out every time I leave the app, often if I just leave it for a few seconds? That seems silly. Every other app in the entire world can remember your login information. I love that I can now watch a game on my phone, but it’s silly and inconvenient that I have to reselect my TV provider and log in if I, say, switch from the app to check some stats or respond to a text. Please fix this!!

### 1/5 — Horrible app

*2023-02-28, version 2.0.14*

The only reason this app gets a one is because it actually plays a hockey game. There’s no option to remember a cable login so you have to log in every single time you open the app, even if it’s been 5 minutes during a commercial break. The user interface is horrible, there is absolutely no support for landscape controls, despite playing the game in landscape.

### 1/5 — Disappointed

*2022-07-16, version 2.0.13*

I have a subscription for ATT SportsNet southwest. It will not allow me to sign in with my directv account despite providing the correct information. Every few months over the last three years I come back to check on this app. It still is having issues. It won’t let me login. When I was able to log in the app was blank. Or I would get a notification. Saying that my directv plan does not have SportsNet. I’ve contacted support. I have put in feedback. I also have been pretty patient when it comes to this app. 

I wish the sign in would get fix. I would like the “region” lock removed and we should be able to watch these games in the “legion”. Why is there no Apple TV app ? If the support team needs logs or someone to be the Guinea pig, I will be glad to help. I hope this is helpful for those who want to use this app.

### 1/5 — Not a good streaming service

*2022-04-20, version 2.0.12*

Be careful closing the app to check a text message or answer your phone. It will log you out and you have to re-log in every time. It is annoying especially since I’m still using the same device I logged into it 5 minutes ago.

### 1/5 — I have U-verse but need to stream while at work.

*2022-04-08, version 2.0.12*

I have U-verse but I need to stream while at work. I am constantly having issues with logging in. I have been able to login through the mlb app but I guess that has now been taken away. I pay loads of money for the service but can’t get logged in online. Even though I know my password the first time I go to login it says I have tried wrong to many times. Now I have to wait three weeks for a temporary password to be sent to me via usps. This is only a month after having to do this prior. What other tech company has the usps deliver a temporary password?

### 2/5 — Negative feedback

*2022-04-08, version 2.0.12*

Att has not taken time to address the concerns of users. User complaints and comments expressed two years ago are still an issue. Casting/airplay to another product should be available in 2020. Att continues to state they have an agreement problem but no mention on how they plan on fixing for their customers demanding a normal streaming experience in 2020. It’s a shame and wasted potential on an app.

### 1/5 — BOOOOO!! BOOO TO AT&T!!!!! BOOOOOOOO

*2021-11-10, version 2.0.11*

This is literally the worst app on the face of the planet and is clearing being neglected by AT&T SportsNet, which is a horrible decision considering the current drive towards apps in viewing sporting events. I have HATED this app for a long time and have used it only because I have to in order to watch the jazz. The latest bug is the audio only plays the on court audio, instead of the broadcasting audio. I realize this is probably some idiots job to switch it during the broadcast but it’s happened like 5 times this season already. BOOOOOOOOO!!! BOOOOO TO AT&T SportsNet!!!!! BOOOOOO!
