WSL

So easy to catch up on the surfing news

Hard to navigate

As a competitor trying to find out about my registration it is so hard to find where that is in the WSL webpage

Rubbish app

This app is a literal dinosaur. Crashes constantly, forgets I’m logged in. Wont let me pick fantasy surfer. Fantasy surfer doesn’t even load half the time. Very unprofessional look. Get with the program you luddites. And this time I’ve been kicked out of my account and when I try to log back in it starts a new account with only 2 rounds left in the season. Get your dhit together ffs.

Downfall of fantasy

From last year to this year, the fantasy visuals and interface have taken a complete nosedive

Pumping

This app is, I think, the best app in the entire world! It has smoke, it has fire, it’s has champions and extraordinary feats of athleticism. Superb low carbon emissions actiondo! Dive it at your own risk! ♥️

Need a lot of work

Not fun to pick a team than it says that you did not pick a team super lame.

Muitos bugs

Bug na tela cheia, fica preta e somente com áudio funcionando

Génial !

App géniale pour suivre le CT/CS, en revanche sur les directs il y a toujours un décalage entre le son et l'image (son en avance de plusieurs secondes), serait-il possible de corriger svp ? :)

Update: cela semble avoir été corrigé, MERCI LES DEV ! 😊

Ótimo

Perfeito nada de erro

Excellent

I love this app.

Great content, terrible app

I love the WSL and I watch all the comps, but this app is horrible. Anytime you dare to touch your screen you get sent to a commercial, and if you’re watching a replay, he gets sent to another video or to the beginning of the video. Or even better get two videos playing at once, that you can only fix by restarting the app and going through the commercials all over again. Please fix it so we can all enjoy following the tour !

App sucks l

Chrome cast doesn’t work and everytime you go to another app while it is playing it glitches. Love the content but app could be much better.

Encore un (gros) bug

Notifications

They don’t work

Fantasy

Why is it that halfway through picking your team it reloads and doesn’t save your team, then when you think it’s saved it hasn’t. 4 of my mates have all had the problem through out the fantasy season so far in different events. Make the app want to save players rather than it not want to save. Make it suited to the user.

Horrible

For a company who’s entire business operates via a website and app I’d expect a lot more. I enjoy fantasy surfing yet cannot access my team via the app, only the website. Never get an update regarding my teams standings during an event nor any event news for that matter until it’s over despite all notifications turned on. Let’s go WSL, it’s 2026.

Fantasy picks is a hassle. Otherwise love WSL

Love having the great surf events at my fingertips plus fantasy league is heaps fun. I just think too many steps to pick teams. Need an obvious button/menu which can be seen in most screens. Also give more functional reminders to pick teams or if we have not done it completely, like once missed doing power picks and then had no selections for that event. My kids roasted me.

Please fix team picking 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏

New Development Team Needed

I can’t believe how bad this app has gotten. It’s 4 clicks to get to your fantasy team!! I don’t even want to take the time to get into the how poorly it’s designed to make changes to your line up. WSL needs to get rid of all web product managers immediately!!

Now let’s discuss how bad the app performs when watching a broadcast. If your phone goes out of full screen and you go back into the broadcast, the screen goes black and you have to restart the app and watch 90 seconds of ads again!!

Embarrassing product for the WSL.

WORST SPODTS VIEWING EXPERIENCE

Of the many things wrong with WSL,
this app is the worst thing.

The fact that they direct all traffic for their most viewed days (CT Finals Days) to this app and then spend 0 funding into developing it, is insane and an indicator of their company’s fundamental lack of competency and intelligence.

This is the first experience some fans are getting. They want to tune into to Pipe Finals Day! They find out they have to download an app whatever. Then it looks like it was made in 2008 and barely functions. You watch the ad non stop at the beginning and don’t offer any subscription to remove it. How’s that for their first taste of the sport you are desperately forcing to grow.

Get a clue.

Terrible

I love surfing. I love watching surfing.
I never review or write apps.
But I had to because this thing is so clunky, hard to use, and literally ruins my experience of watching the sport I love .
WSL is great, but this app sucks.
