Still lots of room for improvement Overall the app is better than previous version, but there are still lots of room for improvement. Interface looks nicer, but app is still buggies. Developer please take a look at ESPN app as an example. The casting to tv aspect between nbcsports vs ESPN is night and day as well as battery consumption. When nbcsports app switchs from program to commercial, live streaming is always interrupted.

GETTING Better Big improvement from last version. Thanks for listening. However, the app disconnects from Chromecast every 10 to 15 minutes. And when I reconnect, that means I have to listen to BS ads. Speaking of ads... The more I see them, the more I don't want to subscribe/buy any of those services/products. Way toooooo much ads. Quality services/products don't don't need commercial... Their customers will recommend to their friends. This up crushes constantly.

Latest update leaves app unusable This app updated on 10/11 and since then it crashes every time I try to launch a video. Using a stock Galaxy S7. Very disappointing. This was my go to source for F1 and EPL Football. Please fix asap. UPDATE app works again but they insert so many commercials in the F1 programming that it is impossible to watch. Better of with a DVR recording.

Good, but could use help I don't like that if you start watching a game late, it takes you live automatically. It would be nice if it took you to the beginning of the game with the option to move forward as you wish, especially since there is no rewind option. Also it takes way too long for games to get placed from "live" to "replay". It's been almost an hour since the game ended and it's still under "live" and if you click the live link it says "coverage has ended," but it's still not up on replay. Good app otherwise.

Horrible for sports fans This has got to be the worse app for streaming. Im sure even lesser known networks/developers make a better app!!!! This thing alwaya freezes on wifi th strong connections. Itd annoying and frustrating. Come on NBC get your crap together and fix this issue. Get the FOX peopke to teach you how to make a working app

Replays not available, spoils game results Game replays aren't even available half the time, making this app worthless. To make things worse, the very first page that pops up shows the results of the games, spoiling the outcomes of the matches you were trying to use the app to watch in the first place!

Great when it works Being able to watch EVERY Premier League match wherever I am is awesome. Unfortunately, videos often fail to load, souring my rating. EDIT: I've updated my rating from 3 stars to 5 due to new updates significantly reducing the frequency of video issues.
Awful waste of space Cant hardly watch anything due to ads and is constantly freezing up on you while watching an event but thats if it even loads for u has no problem loading and streaming the ads but no sports coverage if i could give less then one star i would
Great When it Works but Inconsistent App is probably the most annoying streaming app out there. When it works its great and gets great coverage and quality. But streaming content onto the Tele always crashes. There will sometimes be an update where it fixes it and then when it forces you to another update it reintroduces the problem for reasons I never understand. When it finally works I dread updating it. Here's hoping it gets fixed...again.
Garbage!!! Its been three years and they have still fixed nothing! They constanly pitch the app on tv and it simply does not work. Every time i try and watch a match it crashes, and when it does work casting will usually work for a short period before crashing. I have given them the benifit of the doubt for years, but i couldn't watch the match today and enough is enough, fix it!
I hate this app!!!! So now we FINALLY have Chromecast support but only on certain content. NBC please sell the Formula 1 rights to someone who cares about F1. Google, I'm buying Firestick so I can watch F1 on my TV. It's so hard being an American F1 fan. The only racing we hear about here is NASCAR. NASCAR IS RETARDED!!!! Ranting done. Thanks.
Drops connection to Chromecast constantly It's great when it works and I love it, but trying to watch a whole game is excruciating. It loses connection to my (brand new) Chromecasts so often that it's easier to just watch online normally. That would be fine without having to watch an ad all over again every time.
It streams fine, when it streams at all. But I can't even watch a soccer match without it crashing at least a half dozen times. Every time it crashes, you have to shut down the app, restart it, re-authorize, and watch an ad before resuming your event. So you miss far too much of live sporting events every time you have to go through this cycle.
Worst Live Event App It is horrible no matter how good service is...buffers constantly except on comercials... which I think they only show the same 4 all the time...it will rewind back half an hour so you are re-watching what you have already seen
Crashes This app is a waste of space now. It just crashes every time I click play on any of the content available. Even worse is the amount of notifications the pop up, the content of which I can't watch because... It crashes of course. Used to be great... Let's make this app great again.
Too many notifications and ads The ability to watch live games is nice, the constant push notifications that you have to turn iff one by one is not nice. And there's too many ad overlays on live event broadcasts. If I wanted to see ads, I'd just find a pirated stream.
50/50 chance of it working... Most frustrating app on the market, half the time I click play and it simply does nothing... Get it together NBC! ---update months later, still trying to watch EPL matches but now it works via Chromecast from my LG G3 in 4-5min increments, then kicks me out to the main yellow NBC logo screen. So I have to relaunch the app continuously or just watch it on my phone screen... #comeonman
Crash master For such a big company NBC to not be able to take care of the App, it is really disappointing. As other users stated the App keep crashing especially the highlight section never works. Come on guys make an App which works and don't humiliate NBC'S name
Garbage I try to sign in to my cable provider and I just keep getting the user id or password incorrect. I think I know what my id and password is. I tried to uninstall it and reinstall it. Soon as I did that it worked great until I had to put my phone on the charger where I ended up with the same problem. What a joke. I'll just listen to my sports on my xm radio until this is fixed.
Garbage app...still no good. Pure unadulterated garbage. You can choose which game you'd like to watch, but the video doesn't load. So that sucks. What do you expect from a Comcast company? I've downloaded this app and deleted it 5 times now. Cleared my cache. Reboots. All of it. The only known fix to this app is to delete it and stream BPL matches illegally online. Edit- I downloaded it again to see if it's any better. Shocked to say that it isn't. The constant hiccups, force closes, and poor quality is horrendous.
Terrible streaming experience Of all the official Chromecast supported apps I have used this is the worst. Constant freezing. Audio stuttering. Crashes. And every time one of the issues happens you have to rewatch the ads, which by the way play PERFECTLY every time. Pathetic app
Pathetic Quite amazing and frankly embarrassing that a multi billion dollar company can't produce a decent app. Constantly crashes. freezes, and if you are lucky enough to cast, rest assured that the casting will stop after a few minutes.
Fix the casting issues It's hockey season, NBC needs to get the casting option to work better, as others are saying, you get to watch it for about 4 minutes then it freezes up, having to go back and restart steam again. Huge pain in the ass. Figure out what ESPN does with their Watch ESPN app, their casting works excellent, too bad they don't carry NHL hockey games!
Never works If you like watching the same 3 ads while trying to stream or cast your games, this is the app for you. Hardly ever works and you have to turn off and restart every few minutes, but not before being forced to watch 2 minutes of the same commercials....waste of time.
App is garbage Seriously never works. I have yet to be able to open a live stream also i keep getting local restriction warnings for content being broadcast on nbcsn. I did not set up a regional area.
Unbelievably awful on roku I had this app on Fire Stick before I had TV with built in roku and it was fantastic on Fire stick. The app is almost unrecognizable on roku, it has no replays, just highlights and live sports. It stops playing mid live stream, it's just bad.
Freezing on chromecast Galaxy S7 on verizon... keeps dropping cast despite excellent WiFi connection. I have to completely close the app and start over every time. I like this app a lot for watching the premier league but it sucks when it doesn't work and keeps freezing.
Terrible streaming This app is terrible at playing videos. I'm trying to watch a football game and it constantly stops playback to buffer. It's a supposed to be a live stream for God's sake, how about don't make it so laggy?
I'm pissed Your description clearly says Sunday night football live streaming! Fix that lie. At least make the regular NBC app stream live tv. I keep getting an error about unable to retrieve stream. I emailed about it and never got a response
Great if it works It is constantly stopping any stream to try to show you more ads but then it doesn't reconnect to the game. Last consistent sorts streaming app on the market. Real shame because it looks good when it's working.
Chromecast - careful what you wish for Finally got Chromecast support. Finally. Too bad it shuts down every 2 minutes and randomly throws advertisements up in the middle of soccer games. Hey nbc, get new developers. Awful awful effort. Nearly useless.
Lame It's the most annoying app! It's worse when you try to stream through chromecast. Fix this issue already. No excuse for it. ESPN and FOX work great. I can't watch any of my warriors games!
Video interruptions every 10 minutes App is great but casting to tv is still buggy. Video stops often. I'm forced to mirror my phone to the tv to cast it which I hate because I can't continue to use my phone. Please fix. Thanks.
This app is total garbage I would expect a major television network to invest in the multimedia apps used to distribute its content to mobile devices. I apparently expect too much. Not only does this app not support casting within the app for F1races, but even when I'm NOT trying to cast, this app can't even get through 3 seconds of the first commercial I have to watch before an F1 race before it locks up and crashes. If you're not going to support streaming of F1 races, don't pretend you do by offering it as a viewing option.
Was decent until last update Tried to watch a EPL match. I had no issues..in the past. Now I'm being told that the match is "upcoming". I can see online that I've missed 2 goals. How can an app be called "live extra" but not show a live event? EDIT: Now I see "Authorizing.. Please wait" for hours.
THIS. APP. SUCKS! YES I KNOW I'M SHOUTING. This app is still complete garbage, especially when it comes to Chromecast support. Ad insertion breaks the stream. Stream stops for no reason within 5-10 mins with multiple devices. No issues with ESPN, Fox, or beIN streams with Chromecast. Typical NBCU/Comcast crap.
Great app, terrible streaming quality They finally get Chromecast support and it constantly freezes or just stops working all together. Fantastic list of sports to watch and beautiful interface, but get the streaming to work... That's why a majority of people use the app in the 1st place... The Olympics and now NHL... Please fix
Constantly crashes When this app works, it's great. Unfortunately you can count on it losing connection or just crashing roughly every 10 minutes. If that could be fixed, I'd give it 5 stars
Needs some work Came back to change my rating from a 2 to a 1. It freezes about 1-2 minutes in to a Chromecast 90% of the time. Pointless to even have the subscription to NBC sports if I can't use it.
Complete junk. About as bad as you can get. Force closes itself, can't watch local sports teams, and customer service is obsolete. The app seems to loose connection at the biggest moments in sports. 👎
