regularly crashing.

I have this app solely to watch WWE events. but its almost impossible to finish an entire show without the app crashing. no matter what TV I use. no matter if I cast from my phone. the results are the same. then to make matters worse, every time it crashes, you have to start over. then fast forward and hope you can make it to the same part before it crashes again. how about a "resume" option.

Good for checking on things, nothing else. video ads EVERY. SINGLE. HIGHLIGHT. Even when you have ESPN+. the video player is also trash, and not at all optimized. Infinite buffer anytime you try and choose a point in a video to go to, so make sure you literally never grt busy or called away from your phone mid watch. Scores are usually accurate to 30 or so seconds of an update in game, so good way to be the first to know, even before anyone outside the venue.

The app keeps showing me notifications for sports I don't follow. This is by design as Disney is forcing us to follow sports we do not care about. To provide a concrete example, expect to see notifications about the WNBA even if you're not following that sport. Show me how to turn off all notifications for sports I am not following (read: don't care about) and I'll revise my rating.

this app is pretty bad compared to the standard that should be tied to the name ESPN. I get so tired of constantly verifying myself. its almost every time I try and watch something I have to verify my service provider and on some smart devices it will enter into a never ending loop of verification. ESPN you used to be cool. you've changed man. don't recognize you anymore.

Easily the WORST streaming app I've used. By comparison, I use all the household names (Netflix, Max, Hulu, Paramount, Peacock, etc...) I have restarted, checked for updates, uninstalled, cleared caches and every other troubleshooting and my options are for it to freeze 3 to 4 times per minute on a Roku TV, watch with a blurry picture on a firestick or watch with a decent picture and fewer freezes on a phone. Thank God I'm using a promo and not paying for this garbage app.
