A fatal error has occurred
Broken since DF4
It’s the only app for world of Warcraft and now you need it to 2FA. There’s two problems with it that I always hope that each update will fix. The fatal error has occurred issue is constant. It crashes a lot. Fails to open it freezes. And the second is it begins to eat up so much memory on your phone it will quickly gobble up over 1GB and more if you let it There’s no reason it had to store your activities locally when the game stores them anyway as they communicate app with the game in real time. You can fix the memory hog only by uninstalling/reinstalling periodically. This will clear all your bloat from your activities from your phone .. and magic they will still be in game. The app should just have a ‘clear phone cache’ user function. Why the F doesn’t it?

Great app
I love the fact that I can get on and check the auction house and see what world quests are available and even show my friends that wanna play my character, only thing I wish was added was a mail tab, mainly just for money so I could post auctions before work, check them throughout the day and collect before I get on, mainly to buy more things off the ah in the app. Other than that the app is great.

Diminished quality
Currently stuck at login with inability to see my characters or their stats. Even when you can login fully, opening character view can be hit or miss. Sometimes you can’t exit it. Miss the days when you could do a 3D view of your character too. App has a lot of potential but so frustrating to use
I would like a talent calculator for all of the expansions and classic servers!
I think the app is incredible, the ability to do your tables while away from home is the biggest usage of the app and the addition of the auction house was incredible however I noticed that there are apps for classic talent calcs yet the only dragon flight talent calculator is on wowhead. They also do not have an app for their website which is mindboggling but if a talent calculator could be added to this app I think it would set them above and beyond.

Blizzard is scam
Do not get their Authenticator if you have to get it replaced they will absolutely scam you. My phone broke with Authenticator I’ve sent over 20 tickets in now, I’ve been charged 2 wow subscription for 4 months that I can’t cancel and my bank wants to charge me for to cancel, blizzard support just keeps sending me the same email saying they’ll fix it and for me to log in and guess what that REQUIRES MY AUTHENTICATOR, I’ve told them every ticket I can provide my ID or any information and they just keep sending the log in email. I am so sad I have been a customer of this company for over 2 decades and I will never play another one of their games. I am now having to drive to the city to close my bank altogether and get a new bank to resolve this issue. I will make my story known everywhere blizzard you seriously screwed up just to rip someone off a few months lol.

Overall great improvements longterm
Short term, the AH is bugged. I went to buy progenitor essentia which shows at 1s and the mobile AH let me buy them. Just not for 1s and didn’t show me that I’d be spending 50k gold. I tested this a bit (at my expense). I was able to buy essentia that showed for 1s for prices anywhere from 100g-5000g. That’s a big gap and nowhere does it say. Really would appreciate the bug being fixed or AH disabled.

The worst App on iOS
I joined back WOW two years later and I am highly disappointed with this app, it’s a same old app now even more bugs. Blizzard if you can’t handle mobile application please outsource it and please don’t annoy customers.
The mobile basic functionality is TAP not Drag and Drop, in shadowlands mission tap of the follower won’t work. It take more than 30 per character on mobile however on PC it’s way faster.
Make a new menu for expansion change on the screen so the single tap could change it not the 3 line confusing menu.
Missions take a lot of time when completed, we have to see every mission result there must be a SKIP or SHOW ALL RESULTS BUTTON.
I can help you redesign the app contact me if you like but please do fix this soon

Must use English on cellphone
I live in Thailand, but the app works just fine on my cellphone. When loaded into. My wife’s cellphone, I always got “A Fatal Error” when trying to enter account name. This app ONLY works if your cellphone is set to a language supported by the app. Setting my wife’s iPhone to English allowed the app to load and work correctly. Switching back to Thai caused the app to fail again. Just FYI.

Screen Size!
It does the job. It passes. It has some bugs but Blizzard is known for that at this point. I really don’t care, just bring back the full screen. In this recent update, the screen ratio became that of an iPhone 8 and I have an iPhone 12 Pro Max. This wasn’t like this before this update. This a quality of life improvement that would mean another star on this review.

Useful and Fun
I have had a lot of fun with the companion app. I have utilized the mission table on the app much more frequently than I would use it in—game. I have mined a ton of gold, mats, and anima; upgraded my alts’ gear; and earned several new mounts. It has been glitch free for me.
Buggy, do not send elite missions!!
Keep getting fatal errors on the elite missions, the ones for soul ash/stygia. Now as I am away on vacation (no computer to login on and resolve the missions) 3 of my 4 characters each have five of their champions stuck in different elite missions that give fatal error and are unable to be completed (despite being done for multiple days). Do not send any elite missions if you cannot potentially login to complete them manually at your mission table or your champions have a high chance of getting stuck and becoming unusable.

Been rough since WoD
Since this companion app was introduced Blizzard has put forth bare minimum effort into making it work for the player. When Legion was released players lost access to WoD content, when BfA was released players lost Legion content. Both of these earlier expansions are still playable. The content for them still exists, but they were no longer supported in the app. SL made a small fix to that, players could access the two latest expansions, but still not WoD. Now after the latest update Blizzard has made it so nothing is accessible except Fatal Errors. The app is just wasted space on the device now because players cannot login.

Embarrassing
It’s incredible that a 16 year old game still has so many technical problems. This app is no different. Constant freezes, crashes and disconnects, with every new update, more bugs are introduced. This is what happens when companies fire or lose their efficient talented teams through pure corporate incompetence and misplaced ideological agendas, replacing them with quotas and checklist hires. Pure and utter incompetence on full display in every aspect of the experience, from technical to game system designs. Absolutely embarrassing and unacceptable from a company this massive and profitable.

Sadness
Ever since shadowlands I haven’t been able to load this app at all. I can get the downloads, it’ll take my info, then it crashes as soon as that load bar hits “full”. By the response team’s history I’m gonna guess my message won’t get read, and if it does get read it’ll be instantly dismissed, as they’ve done for every major problem since the end of mop. Game is going to crap and everything associated with it is following suit. I’ve looked at the comments here, I’m not the only one with this issue but they refuse to actively try to fix it, not even TRY. They made their money and don’t care what the average player thinks till enough of them hurt their paychecks, then they’ll care. What happened to the adventure of wow? It’s a mount grind now. No one cares how good or bad you are, if you got the mount and a pretty transmog you’ve got better chances than someone who focused on the actual skill portion of the game. Garbage staff. Absolutely garbage. They will kill their own game by their own hands and for everyone else who’s been around since the beta- our hearts will break because blizzard does not and will not care.

Very disheartening....
I’ve downloaded this app at the beginning of May 2021 and 5 days later I still can’t get the application to last long enough to even see what it does. This application is a shame when compared to the largest MMORPG in regards to functionality and support given the fact that according to previous reviews it’s still an issue.
Blizzard needs to fix it or otherwise don’t even waste your time downloading.

Great for what it is.
First off, let me start by saying this is not a perfect app. The largest purpose of this app, to me, is to be able to remotely log into the game and send your followers out on missions for various rewards. These missions require different amounts of time to complete. I don’t get to play every day, so being able to log in for a few minutes and send the followers out on missions that only take a few hours to complete is very convenient.
If you’re wanting to be able to complete as many missions as possible in the time you’re not logged into the game, this app is perfect.
As for the other uses, guild chat, calendar, etc. I’m sure they’re fine and could use improvement. The app is free and it does its main purpose very well.

Helpful
Helps me stay on top of my missions when I have a slow day at work. I never have to log onto my computer just to do mission stuff. It’s also fun that I can keep up with guild chat from anywhere.
Works great for me
It really works just fine for me. I have not had any issues at all so far logging in or setting up quests. I enjoy the functionality and not having to log in to clear quests.
Works!
This app is great for two things: Mission Tables and Community chat. There’s some minor news functions, and the calendar, but it doesn’t feel like those are the POINT of the app. Missions are easier and faster to run through the app than at the in-game stations, and you can check chat anytime.
The only thing I wish it did was show achievements in the app chat. My guildmates often congratulate someone and I have no idea why. I’d love to know whether people are doing old content, or collecting titles, or grinding for big achievements like TC8 or the mount collections.
