The Big Shame about MLBThe real problem with the Major League Baseball app is that you can virtually never see your home team, in my case, my beloved Cincinnati Reds. I kept score of the first 106 Reds games in 1970, the beginning of the Big Red Machine, when they won 70 of their first 100 games. Why can’t baseball be more like the NFL? I saw 20 games at Crosley and then Riverfront before I got a library job while going into the 10th grade. I was 15 years old. Now I’m almost 70 and I’m not going to subject myself to the newest Ballpark, although it’s very nice. What is the harm in being able to watch every move of the very exciting young Reds? The steal of second, third, and home on 2 pitches! by Mr. De La Cruz was the most incredible play I may have ever seen! Who’s losing revenue when I pay my $150 for the radio app?
The Real Big Shame about this MLB app is I cannot watch my Reds!!! Please explain the lost revenue if I were provided with every game, visually & viscerally?.KdwulffVersion: 16.8.0
Good app gone bad. Another greedy money grabI used to love this app. However, if you can avoid it, do so. First they jacked up the price from $20 a year to $30 a year for the audio broadcasts. No new features or benefits, just a huge greedy move for us with auto subscriptions turned on. They also started using local commercials based on your location. However, there doesn’t seems to be anyone actually monitoring the game so the commercials start later than the commercial break so it cuts off the start of the broadcast of the next innings. By the time the commercials finish you’ve missed at least the first batter or more. And the audio on the commercials is so loud! I did radio and tv commercials for years professionally and this is easily fixed with a leveling compressor but apparently no one at MLB knows what one is. Look elsewhere for your baseball broadcasts if you can..Dave-GVersion: 16.5.0
MLB stop trying to change the gameThis app is awesome, I’ve been a huge fan of Major League Baseball since I was 8 years old .I can remember listening to the Oakland A’s , in 1972. I would keep score of the games. Stats in sports have always interested me. Especially when it came to baseball. The history of game and the players who once played at the beginning ,when they started to keep players numbers ,stats. A bats . Hits ,Runs ,Home Runs ,RBI’s etc .Pitching records Era’s it’s made baseball as far has I’m concerned, the best game ever.!
I have to say , I don’t like the new rules , the pitching clock. The base runner at second in extra innings. It takes the purity out of the game: I love that baseball has no time limit
It’s what’s made it unique, a game could last 20 innings or longer. That’s what’s amazing. But by just putting runners on base: In my I think it hurts the game : not makes it better.
If your going to have the pitching clock .let’s add some time. It’s way to fast. Baseball was never meant to be a quick game. It involves
Thinking and strategies on every pitch, managerial moves, pitching changes, pinch hitters,( oh yeah and I almost forgot, you can’t shift players over to one side of the diamond , that’s ridiculous also. Just let the managers try whatever to stop a pull hitter .
Stop changing the greatest game ever .!!

You're Still the Gold Standard, but Could You Chill withthe AdsThis app still is the best of all the sporting organizations in the United States. I sincerely appreciate the consistent good quality in accessibility and usability. However, there is one glaring problem that takes me from 5 stars to 4.
I have the MLB audio subscription and, for the most part, it is amazing. However, the product has been really damaged by the built-in ads that turn on any time there's a break. They are the same pepetitive ads, which gets very tiresome. However, I could tolerate that. However, what is currently really annoying is the ads will cut in before the broadcasters have thrown it to a break. Or, even worse, the ads cut into game time after the radio broadcast has returned from the break.
This is just very bad practice. especially during the play-offs. I hope you will consider fixing this issue. Beyond that, please keep up the great work..Qball_42Version: 16.14.0
Hating the streaming service gamesThe app is great. Love watching games on MASN. Absolutely hate when games are only available on streaming services (ie. Apple TV, Peacock). I think it’s pretty tone deaf on the part of the MLB to expect fans to pay hundreds of dollars a year to watch a handful of games. Games with mediocre coverage at best, by on air personalities who clearly know little about the teams and cities of which they report. People on fixed incomes, low income families and anyone struggling to make ends meet, see it as a slap in the face. Not everyone can afford to even visit the ballpark for a game. Further limiting people’s ability to support their team by putting games out of their financial reach feels like blind elitism. I am very disappointed in this very poorly thought out decision by the MLB.O’s fan since ‘65Version: 16.6.0
MLB at Bat app, Best of Four Major SportsThe MLB at Bat app is by far the best app to follow your hometown MLB team and all of Major League Baseball, in general. You can follow just about everything you would want to know about the MLB in real-time at the touch of your fingers on your smartphone. This year they even improved it with more ways to get specific information about each game. By the way, the app is faster than your tv and radio broadcasts.
But I have one negative against these new improvements, there is no function or tab to click on to show which defensive players are in the field or which runners are on base, etc
So one negative: no field view! This matters more late in games as managers make substitutions and especially in extra innings games.
So I hope MLB is listening and watching and will re-introduce field-view with defense and runners on base.
Otherwise this app is pretty awesome!.Stepping out with RayVersion: 16.3.1
GreedPeople wouldn’t believe how much money I used to make. The more I made it seemed the less happy I was.
Corporations when they take they don’t replace that with anything else other than another revenue stream.
For the price of tickets to see mediocrity teams play a game the sell is nostalgia.
Yet that same nostalgia that sells the tickets themselves is being removed by apps that are forced on the fans.
This app is pretty simple to use and works well.
However, by not giving fans an option to have hard physical tickets for souvenirs, mementos and arts and crafts shows they have zero respect for any of us.
Who has a tickets stub to Aaron Judge HR record game? I bet the Yankees printed some garbage limited edition trinket to sell to the fan.
This goes for every Sports team.
Tom Brady’s return to Foxboro playing for the Bucs- my family’s had season tickets for 30 years yet no stub from that game.
When the younger generations lose the nostalgia of collecting tickets and physically holding and reading the articles they will also lose the nostalgia that convinces them to overpay for a product that no longer means what it used to mean.
Technology isn’t going anywhere and we are heading way past the slippery slope of intellectual property abuse.
Now all I got to do is figure out how to make a decent living again only utilizing my Cellphone.BobbyvansVersion: 16.8.0
2023 mlb is not done wellThe new version for this year was not done very well. The new home theme is pointless and worse than the old one. It often takes a long time to load the app. Frustrating experience. Also, I don’t like that the only option when watching live games or full game replay is a 30 second rewind or fast forward. Pitches take less time this year and the app should adjust accordingly.
Also if a am busy and missed a game and would like to watch the condensed game, it is a) hard to get to without spoiling the outcome for me (even with ‘hide scores’ on), and when I am watching it, it is obvious who the play is good for based off which team is announcing the play. They should have the team and the plate announcers ALWAYS- this way we won’t know the outcome of the play. Also I wish they had an option for watching every plate appearance- like a longer condensed game.DaveLikesToWear...Version: 16.3.2
Pretty good but can be improvedI totally love this app, however, I do wish that in the standings tab you would be able to just hear the bare minimum about a team such as what their record is how many games behind they are in the division and how many games behind they are in the wildcard. If you want to see all of the stats, allow us to be able to click on the teams link and view them. As a blind person, this is just more that we have to scroll past. I would also like to have Dolby digital surroundsound as a requirement for all major league radio broadcasts. Radio is just as it was in the 1900s, late 1900s at that. all mono audio with broadcasts, except for the Atlanta Braves. But even on this app, they don’t broadcast in stereo as they do on SiriusXM and the like. It’s time that all areas of the app step up into the 21st-century. Thank you for keeping accessibility in mind, though..Frank Sinatra fanVersion: 16.9.0
Terrible Casting ExperienceI hate the casting experience. I watch half a game, come back the next day to finish, and the app won’t let me resume from where I left off. So, I try to slew to the approximate hour/minute where I left off. The stream is paused, so I hit “play” and it returns me to the very beginning of the broadcast, not the hour/minute I chose. Also, the 30 second fast forward/rewind buttons don’t do anything, they are just for visual appeal I suppose. When I say they don’t do anything, I mean just that. Non functional.
Oh and the RSN’s…don’t get me started on that terrible arrangement that MLB has in order to screw fans and reduce overall accessibility to live games. I hope someone gets fired for coming up with that idea..The_BrettGAVersion: 16.2.2
New 3D game play by play feature is amazing!This app has always been my go to for the ability to watch and listen to live games. Based on your location certain games may not be available to watch but you can still listen. As an avid fan I did not mind and would often follow along use the 2D play by play. Yesterday I noticed the 3D play by play and was nothing short of AMAZED! This feature tracks the ball and shows full movement through out the field. Gone are the 2D pitcher and batter box. You can follow along in virtual real time, see the pitcher warm up between inning, and rocket through the field if a ball is put in play. Truly revolutionary feature this app upgrade is worthy of a glowing review! Outstanding workaround for games that are blacked out in your region. If you love following the action pitch by pitch this will more than satisfy the itch. Game on!!.SprtsactionVersion: 16.6.0
Greatest baseball app ever but one issueThis app is great. I absolutely love the game day to help you visualize the game. And I also like how you can change your teams to follow and your favorite team. However, I had 3 teams that I was following. Then the complete revision came and I wanted to take them out cause of too much notifications. So I went to the followed teams and the only team I was following was my favorite team. But I was still getting notifications. I want to have peace while I’m laying in bed at night but I keep getting notifications from teams I don’t follow anymore. I hope that this issue (which is probably only with me) to be fixed. I hope you see this and know what’s going on because this is starting to become a problem. And if you do fix it then thank you..MagelBagel705Version: 16.3.2
Blackout banditsYou need to stop with all the blackouts! Draw a circle with a 300 mile radius and only black out those folk because they can drive to the games and buy tickets. Instead you blackout the Astros from me here in southern New Mexico which is almost 800 miles away! Really? Do you think I will drive or fly to every game cause I am so close? Never gonna happen! Not to mention you blackout San Diego and Arizona! Ok, I get it with Arizona but c’mon Houston? I can watch the Rockies but not Houston or the Padres. It makes no sense. Now, on top of that I am retired and on a fixed income so if I go to just one game in five years I will be surprised. I save my money for the minor league teams I can see in El Paso. So relax you restrictions already on all the blackouts!.Alex barry finVersion: 16.3.2
GlenAll these outsourced games to Disney, apple, peacock, you tube is a rip off for people who buy a season long subscription to mlb at bat. We pay to watch all the games. It’s bad enough that in market games are excluded. Losing another third of the season in games to outsourced broadcasters borders on fraud. Time for the commissioner to say season subscriptions are season subscriptions. No lost games to companies that I don’t want to do business with, or don’t want on my computer, asking me to buy into their services, or having to wait for three hours to watch a game I already paid to watch. Making small print to “cya” with selling out mlb games isn’t right. (What if the game is west coast and it ends at 11pm. I can’t watch it until 2 am.? Who’s going to stay up to watch a game at that hour? STOP RIPPING THE FANS OFF! TIME FOR THE COMMISSIONER TO BE FAIR WITH THE PAYING FANS !.01glenVersion: 16.3.3
Great app, two recommendationsThe recent changes that have been made are very much appreciated. Two request, first, when a game ending notification comes in can you include the pitcher who gets credited for the save when that applies. Second, also related to game notifications, unless the user has scoring changes or lead changes turned on, just send the end of game notification, we don't need the walk off play as well. For those who have lead or score changes turned on, obviously this would be appropriate. I've tested this with just the end of game notification set on, and when a walkoff happens, two separate notifications are sent every time..R DealVersion: 24.5.0
Invaluable App with Serious ProblemsI can’t imagine baseball life without this app. All the markets broadcast n one place, by each team’s actual announcers? Sign me up! (I use Gameday Audio exclusively.) But the app comes with some fatal flaws. Often the app just quits broadcasting - it gets stuck buffering or says “playback failed.” I must go through a series of needless steps to get it working again. If I’m listening in the car or drifting off to sleep, I’m screwed. I’ve missed crucial plays because of this problem. Until MLB fixes this “consistency” problem, I can only give it 3 stars. Wish I could give it 5, for it provides a large quantity of team news, box scores, and even archives games for later listening. Yet I’m there primarily for the broadcasts, and the app often falls short in this function..TigerfastVersion: 16.3.4
Can we stop the Internet ads on the archives of the games?During the archives of the audio portions of the games, there are pop-up ads that cover up the regular radio station ads of the games, so I have trouble knowing when the games are going to start back up again. Also, during the games, there are pop up ads that will appear. This never used to be like this, and what I'm really looking forward to happening, is, if when I listen to a live game, and I miss it, and I go back to the archive of that game, I want to hear the same game as I would if I were listening to the game live. I don't understand what is going on here ever since you all updated this application within the last couple of days, this has been going on. This never used to be this way. Please fix this..Stepheno3Version: 24.6.0
MLB TVI am a lifelong Dodger fan and supporter. I saw one game at Ebbets Field in which Duke Snider and Willie Mays hit home runs. Willie Mays was the best player because Mickey Mantle hurt his foot in a drain at Yankee Stadium. Sandy Koufax was the greatest player of my generation and maybe of all time for 5 years. I met with him one day and made friends with him. I told him about personal relationships in his life. He gave me a free baseball. I am 73 years old. I want to meet with him again before one of us dies-paid kindly by the Dodgers for us. My wife is also a great Dodger fan. When she goes to bed, I have to always tell her the Dodger’s score. Sandy Koufax should be even more Nationalized while he is still alive. He is beyond believable!!!.Bob2229Version: 16.6.0
Getting Better But Not There YetTwo things I would really like to see to rate this app five stars. Box score and highlights and condensed videos available on the Home Screen for my favorite team. I see that I can get this info now if I click scores. I enjoy seeing the box score below the score. Also access to the condensed game and highlights videos from the Home Screen would be preferred.
Also still having issues with videos starting off muted and having to unmute.
Clicking the all videos button on the Home Screen and being taken to a website page within the app is undesirable. The user experience of watching videos from the website is terrible. Please have them embedded and playable from the app and not load from a website page..Shawnzie2Version: 16.4.0
Great AppI wrote the review below last year. I had to downgrade it one star because it has become slow to open. Everything has become slower in the app too. I like to read the bios of the players, but it’s excruciatingly slow. It’s very different this year. It’s got a new look when it opens, so the developer made some changes that have affected the performance. It’s not my internet. It is fast, and all my other apps do not have this problem. Sometimes it’s better not to fix it when it ain’t broken.
I’m a Southern California Cubs fan and subscribe to MLB to watch my Cubbies. It’s such a great deal. The only drawback is that I spend way too much time watching baseball. I saw almost every game last year and the year before..TheRealPapaDanVersion: 16.3.2
Great! Download radio broadcasts to offline?The app is great, all things considered. My only request would be an option to download past radio broadcasts to an offline mode, like you can do with podcasts on iTunes/Spotify etc. As somebody who travels a lot and doesn’t always have cell reception, it would be very nice to still be able to listen to last night’s game to keep me company. I’m not a coder, and I have no clue if this is a difficult request or runs into some kind of streaming legality issues, but as a frequent user of the app this feature would be much appreciated! I can listen to my baseball podcasts on a plane or a car trip, but they just leave me wanting to listen to actual baseball itself..Bennyl01Version: 16.11.0
Not a Fan of the New Standings UpdateI love this app for following my favorite team, particularly when I can’t watch the game. However, I really don’t like the visual of the standings that came with the latest update. From a graphics perspective it all runs together. There aren’t clear differences between divisions. The lines all look the same and it just seems to run together, and I really don’t like that I have to scroll to see the big picture. It’s hard on the eyes on a mobile screen. Interesting to have more stats, but does the average user really need all of those?Love this app, but the graphics in the Standings are not easy on the eyes and annoying to use and look at..MlongnagsVersion: 16.9.0
Home Page is stupidI use the mlb app to track games and use mlb tv every once in a while. Everything works as it should, aside from some occasional bugs and glitches. The thing I HATEEE the most about this app is this new forced home page they added for the 2023 season. I used to be able to open the app to see the Yankees schedule and Yankees details (as they were my “favorited” team). Now I have the brief preview on the home page with all the other info with MLB. If I want to go into the details for the Yankees, I have to press at the top, another action for no reason. Get rid of this forced home screen thing or at least give us an option to have it be like last years app that takes u to the team page when you open the app..Max¿Version: 16.4.0
MLB subscription.. and no extra pay for 3Rd party streamingIf you pay for a TV subscription every year you shouldn't have to pay again to watch it on alternative TV / Streaming services !
You also shouldn't not be blacked out on games ... especially if you do not receive "local programming" in the different state a game is playing. If a subscription is purchased you should have ACCESS to ALL games ... PERIOD !!!
I live in an area that doesn't provide a lot of baseball..so only option is a MLB subscription... I don't want to pay to watch streaming when I should get it on MLB TV.

MLB audio is a disasterThis App reminds me of the movie “Jaws”, and an endless loop of Captain Quint bring the meeting to order by dragging his fingers down a chalkboard. I listen to Red Sox in Canada. App used to be 3.5+/- block from WEEI/Red Sox Flagship station. MLB/Audacy now try to resell local ads in game. Except for me, at end of inning, game cuts away to 3 minute of static. Fake crowd noise? No it sounds more like a soundtrack to evict a third world dictator. Being originally from area, I liked the local ads and updates on charity work of the Jimmy Fund. Wow, who would if actually thought I would like three minutes of static blasted at an elevated level on my ears? Let’s not forget the sloppy returns after three minutes of static missing batters, plays, and 3/4 of a story/analysis of the latest developments. I would ask MLB/Audacity to listen to an entire game with headphones and have a sanity check afterwards. There is no continuity in the delivered product. Have written a half dozen times to bring back the old system, never a meaningful response. Pretty obvious they don’t care. As a final coupe de grâce, recent update to IOS 16 makes all my IPods unusable. Have cancelled auto renewal and trying to secure refund.

I watch or listen daily during the season and have certainly enjoyed the different broadcast styles of the various team announcers.
Never much a fan of advertising I commonly fast forward through the annoyingly repetitive drivel. This year has been especially painful because the ads can run 2x back to back in the same 2 min break! Besides which due to some odd formatting issue some ads had a 2-3 second loop where they repeated a phrase. Just a blip worth.

MLB Negative Reviews
Redesign is awful - Bring Back the Old Box ScoreThe MLB app use to be the model of excellence for all other iPad apps. Why on earth did you change a perfect app? Most who use this app want to either view a game or look at the box scores. Stats is what it’s all about! The huge batter/pitcher box dominates the real estate. Box scores appear to be an after-thought now. They’re off to the side and only show one team at a time. To chose the other team, you have to scroll to the top. The two team names should be static on the top of the page. Clicking on a player to see their stats brings up another screen. I’m running the M1 chip on an iPad which is really fast but the popped up screen flashes several time before finally appearing about 3-5 seconds later. That is slow. Using the app in portrait mode allows you to see both team’s box scores at the same time which is okay but this is ONLY true when a game is in progress. When the game is over, then it’s only one team at a time. You know, if you want to make changes like these, please allow for an option in settings to allow one to view it as one wants to see it. For example, when I click on a game, I want the box score to pop up. I shouldn’t have to click on the box score link after I’m already there for each game I click on. Also allow me to click on another game to see that box score instead of making me go back a screen to see the list of games..StarbaseDougVersion: 24.9.0
Getting worseI have been using the MLB app for years. I live in California but like listening to the Reds while in my car and watching the games at home. After recent updates, the streaming has gotten worse with each update. For the audio feature, it no longer works on CarPlay. It’s stuck on authorizing. As soon as you disconnect from CarPlay, it suddenly works…for a while. You can expect to have to restart your stream about every 10-15 mins. It will start to stutter and then catch up until it finally freezes totally. So, you hear audio and then suddenly after one out is recorded you start to hear commercials. Check online and realize the app just skipped the entire inning. I thought it was just my phone, so I tried on my wife and kid’s phones. Nope! Same issues. Doesn’t matter if you are on wifi or mobile streaming. Don’t bother emailing support. I let them know the issue and stated, I have restarted my phone multiple times reinstalled the app and it’s still happening. Their response…you guessed it! Restart your phone and if that doesn’t work reinstall the app. Very useful… Responded letting them know I had done that and it was followed up by…nothing.
If want to be dangerous and watch the games while driving, then the app is golden! Zero issues with streaming video. No freezing, delays, or anything..NatiBryanVersion: 24.11.0
From great to extremely disappointingI used to love the MLB app, I started an audio subscription back in 2016 because of the Blackouts and the audio subscription was so cheap. Used to be $5/month now to get audio you have to subscribe for the full package which is a whopping $30/month. I can’t even watch dodger games without an existing spectrum account not to mention postseason games require a cable/satellite account so I unsubscribed, just an enormous price gouge. Not worth the trouble or the money. Then they decided to change the layout of the app that is just clunky and not enjoyable to navigate. Stats used to be on the front page now you have to go to a while separate menu and when you press stats it takes you to a WEB PAGE!? The stats used to be integrated into the app why take it away? It just makes no sense to me. Then the old home page is no longer the home page and it stupid to get to all so I can look at the dodgers schedule? All that stuff used to just be right in front of you from the moment you opened the app now you have to jump all these hoops and if you only want audio well you’re gonna have to pay $30/month. Just despicable, change the app back to the way it used to be and make audio subscriptions their own thing again and I’ll change my review to 5 stars as well as resubscribe..Rock on K'naanVersion: 24.13.0
Used to be good.**UPDATE** They did the impossible... they made the app worse. You can now NO LONGER search for videos by keywords. This is unbelievable. I PAY MONTHLY FOR THIS APP, and it seems like they are putting all the subscribers money into making the app worse with every update. ALSO.. radio broadcast will just disappear now for large chunks of time, and when it’s running its way behind gameday which will freeze from time to time. Please go back to simplifying the app.. I’m paying the same, but getting so much less now. I’ve been a subscriber for a long time. And up until recently I would have given this app a five star review. This app is garbage now. I’ve watched the quality of the app rapidly decline in recent years. Replays used to load quickly, and be of good quality. Not only do the replays take forever to load, but when they do they are extremely pixelated on even the fastest wifi. The radio function never works. I can listen for a few minutes, but the playback will inevitably fail. When that happens I am stuck watching game day, which is ALSO a mess now. I get that there’s a lot that goes into making this app possible, and when functioning correctly it’s a beautiful thing.. but with all the crazy additions made to make the app “better” they ruined what used to just FLAT OUT WORK..Pepperoni318Version: 16.3.2
The support for listening is inadequateAt this point I wonder why I pay for this. I’ve always been a big fan of listening to ball games. This year the app has been awful for that. There has not been a Orioles game where the game feed isn’t cut off early to get to commercials after the end of sides. Just now the feed was cut while the announcer was giving the score. I was listening early today, and the lineup was interrupted for commercials! Last night, I was listening to the archived game while driving, and the feed was interrupted for several minutes for music — not commercials, but random songs. I had to double check to make sure my app hadn’t shut down by accident. Real fun while on the interstate. MLB, do you even have a human crew handling this? If so, are they trying to handle all live games? Or is there some sort of Digital Audio Workstation handling this with tagging? Either way, it’s really embarrassing that the app is so bad at such a basic service. Especially since a majority of the ads on archived games are about the beauty of listening to baseball on audio. You’re failing the product and the fans. It’d be better if this was handled like the MiLB app, where fans are pointed to the local station’s websites so they can listen there..Avi_stettoVersion: 24.7.1
MLB has destroyed the game for meThis review is not on the app, but on the league itself. I grew up in Atlanta and have always been a Braves fan. Starting in the Hank Aaron era, as a kid I would hide under the covers to listen to Milo Hamilton call the games on my transistor radio. I went to many games as a small kid up til I moved from Atlanta in 1983. But you could always watch Braves games on TBS no matter where I lived and would always go to see them when they came to town.
Although I am still a die hard Braves fan, I almost never watch a game. Always some blackout or not televised. I now live in Beaufort SC and Truist Stadium is at least 7 hours away. Still every game is a blackout for me.
How can MLB destroy my passion for my long time team and take that away. What could possibly be a reason that these games are blacked out or not televised in my area? Even when they play away games they are blacked out. To what purpose? Why do they punish fans this way and leave them hating MLB League. Are they trying to push fans to get games through illegal streaming? This is what is happening, not just to me but countless other fans. Is this pure greed or what could the reason possibly be? Well I will continue to try to see the games, but not in the manner MLB wants. Nice job MLB!.Madmac7327Version: 24.7.0
Audio broadcasts are degrading!2024: out of market audio continues to be challenged. I listen to Phillies games from Wisconsin more often than watching games. This year I notice pregame coverage is almost nonexistent for the Phillies hometown station (WIP). I can listen to full away coverage pre-game but only about 10min of WIP’s pregame is carried in the broadcast. And then postgame is cut short within a few minutes, normally in the middle of the recap: no player interview, no manager or presser coverage. Why the change????
You should also be aware that cutting to commercial at half-inning breaks suffers from the following bugs: 1. cut happens ahead of the score being recapped (which would normally be ahead of the break), 2. Commercial volume is higher than broadcast, 3. You play baseball Zen commercials (remember, this is radio - I can imagine the video version l, but all I hear is background Zen music - why would you use this in a radio commercial slot?????
Also keeping the broadcast active during the whole game is a challenge: cuts out and doesn’t return, buffers…buffers…buffer, without resuming. Often requires switching among home, away, home broadcasts to resume. Last straw was today’s London series game when Iissed the final at bat. Please address..Jilted longtime userVersion: 24.10.1
Pathetic Still the worst. The app has scam advertisementsRequires a TV subscription to watch postseason ball! What a waste of money. MLB is a trash business.
Gave MLB another try…still crap. You have to log in every time the streaming app opens (on Apple TV, Samsung, Roku & iOS). There is always a delay to look for your location if you want to look in and out of current games, even though you’re in the app and it just looked for your location. Blackouts are still absolutely stupid and the app won’t tell you why. How am I supposed to know about blackouts for (non-hometown) teams when traveling? I hate that you have to pick a favorite team. I know how to follow my team if I want to. Just let me see all the games and scores without having to look at the one team I am most familiar with. Oh and you don’t get access to MLB network without a TV subscription. It would be a phenomenal way to learn about the league, but instead it reinforces MLBs antiquated, geezer entertainment model. This app is so old and barely improves. MLB is a disgrace to the talented players that make the game the worlds-greatest sport. The app had a link for a discounted remainder of season subscription, but redirects to App Store and charges full price with auto-renew. MLB does not respond to messages or follow up with issue tracking tickets..AbetterlightVersion: 16.13.1
Good Idea, Horrible ExecutionThe concept is great but at times it feels like a neglected service that’s been left on the back burner to boil away. For starters, you can’t mirror it to your tv without the app crashing and mirroring is important because not every tv has the app. The blackouts are a nuisance and every games broadcast starts a whole hour and thirty minutes before the first pitch, but you dont see the pregame coverage. Instead, you are greeted with a screen that says the game will begin soon. This means that when ever you want to watch a game from the beginning you have to scrub until you actually see the game coverage and the scrubber is less than friendly. I often find myself lost when the app inevitably crashes, trying to fine tune a scrubber bar through 4 hours of recorded video with no bar markers or fine tuning option to slow things down. All of this and a litany of other issues that have been pointed out in numerous reviews topped with an increase in price for little return value results in myself not renewing my subscription at the end of this season, shame on MLB for such blown potential..Kyl356Version: 16.7.0
Wrong Team, Bad AudioI just don’t get it. I understand not playing the radio station’s ads during the game, but when you have “Cardinals” selected as your preferred team and you are listening to the Cardinals play any (and every) team except the Cubs, does it make sense that every single ad is for the “Official Champagne Provider for the Chicago Cubs” or the “Official Water Efficiency Company for the Chicago Cubs” or the “Official Hospital and Rehab Center for the Chicago Cubs” or the “Best Steakhouse to visit on your way to Wrigley” or “What’s Happening Now in Des Moines with the Iowa Cubs? or… or… or…?
Of course, that is when the audio feed, for which you have to pay a subscription fee, is actually working. I understand a brief time delay, but as the innings progress, it lags further and further behind, until about 3 innings in and it just chokes on an infinite buffering loop. So you reset the app (or sometimes your entire phone) to get the feed to connect again, but you only get a couple of innings again until it hangs up buffering again.
For the flagship content app for MLB, its features seem decades behind the times..PPPadreVersion: 16.2.1
2023 Version Is As Bad As My Team (Giants)Usually apps get better as the years progress, but MLB has decided to make some changes to this app that made it worse. From the new, forced “Home” page (its just an in-app webpage I’m pretty sure) with a poor layout and cutoff team logo, to slower load times across the board, this year’s version of the app is a huge swing-and-a-miss. Grab some pine, meat. I forgot to add- bafflingly, there is still no widget or live activity support. Two stars- one for being a functioning app, a second because many one-star reviews get ignored. Specific complaints: -Poor design of new Home page -Inability to disable said page -Loss of team color theming (without extra taps to get away from the home page) -No box score on new home page as in old version -The app has decided I’m following Matt Cain, Buster Posey, and MadBum, three players I loved in orange and black but who are no longer playing, and no matter how many times I unfollow them they’re right back on my home page. -Slower than old version *Update* turns out there are live activities, just kinda hidden..Hammerhand.Version: 16.3.2
Frustrating as always.This app would be great if it worked. I am in the Seattle area and have t-mobile. I try to listen to about 2/3 of games through this app and it is a struggle. Some times it works just fine but about 30% of the games drops out every 10 minutes or so and I have to switch to the away audio feed to hear anything then that drops out so I switch back. Sometimes it will work but other times it’s just dead air.
Adds: Sometimes there are local adds sometimes random non local adds in Spanish and sometimes silence. And when it is silent sometimes it comes back on like the adds are just missing but most of the time it’s just stopped playing. This has been a problem with an IPhone XR and an IPhone 13. Home WiFi work WiFi and streaming with data. It’s very frustrating especially since this is my only way to follow my team.
If I get through any 2 week period and it doesn’t continue this problem I will consider it fixed and change it to 5 stars but it has been this way for about 3 years now..TheChaseKVersion: 24.10.1
MLB TV on Zoom is the worstThe functionality of MLB At Bat is great. But the actual performance of MLB TV on this app could not possibly be worse. The game feed is often so grossly pixelated that you can’t tell what’s happening (+40% of the time) or it cuts out altogether (+2 times per game). Of course these things (pixelation and disconnects) never happen when ads are playing. So, don’t pay attention to nonsense about your ISP service being slow. And there is no longer any pregame show or post game show. MLB doesn’t really care about fans and Zoom, the Chinese company providing live streaming of America’s baseball? They apparently know nothing and care as much about fans of America’s pastime.
An update: I have not watched a single game this season in which MLB TV didn’t lock up at least once and the majority of time at least twice or three times. And of course they play commercials after the game starting in the middle of the post game interview with the highlight player of the game. The people running the operations have no idea what they are doing. They have my money for this season but this is the last season..Bill O'SaleVersion: 24.12.0
Best for highlightsBest app to watch highlights on. Have to wait for complete game highlights, otherwise the snippets that they post throughout the game are in no particular order, makes absolutely no sense. You cannot select the first video and watch in sequential order, the first and last video could both be from the end of the game. Kind of ruins the experience for those who can’t afford to pay to stream games.
EDIT: this app does not work well. Everything freezes, replays to radio. They own the rights to any game out of market - means I cannot listen to a mariners game in Virginia without reconnecting to the stream at least 35 times per game. If it were free I wouldn’t be complaining but paying for something that doesn’t work, just because they own a monopoly doesn’t sit well with me. This app feels like it was put together by someone that doesn’t watch sports and has no general idea of user experience. Latest update makes it hard to find anything. Very disappointing. Very close to paying more money for radio stream elsewhere..MlbstreamerVersion: 16.3.0
Stop killing baseball fansMLB - it’s time to fix this thing. You clearly can’t figure out how to sell international ads on the radio - last year we only heard blue nile diamond ads a thousand times, which would be great if I were a demographic interested in diamonds. Still, that is much better than the fan noise between innings and pitchers that has me turning off the radio broadcast and tuning into podcasts or music.
Your calendar is terrible. I live in GMT +2 but remarkably I’ve figured out how to add 7 hours to the start of a game to know when it is. Instead, I can never figure out what day a game is just by looking at it at a glance. It is always showing me double headers when it is really a night game followed by a day game. I appreciate the effort but it isn’t working. Instead, give me the option to choose the time zone displayed. Some might opt for local times, but a lot of us fans would rather it show eastern time zone so we can see when games are.
TV broadcasts are pretty decent with the app. But fix the other stuff. You’re Major League. You’re better than this..Arye from IsraelVersion: 24.7.1
RidiculousFor a sport that is bleeding fans quicker than any other you would think they could make an app functional for people who are obviously using their phones more than ever. I’m a subscriber and for this entire season I have a 50/50 chance of watching a replay, game or highlights. So what’s the point of having/paying for this app? There isn’t one because I can find the scores anywhere else and that’s basically all I have access to. I’ll be waiting for the response of the developer which I’m surely will start with “sorry to hear”. MLB is so clueless as to what people need/want, it is laughable. Good luck watching replays with this joke of a google cloud thing they have going on. It’s also so cool that when the replays work I get to watch a commercial. I pay for the season and I still have to watch commercials? This is an incredible failure on the part of mlb. They don’t have any clue which is why your numbers will continue to drop as you have just lost me as a customer as well. Good luck getting back the average fan because you have no idea how to do it..Ydarb ffejVersion: 16.2.1
Continuous downgradesWhy does the roster and transactions page keep getting functionalities taken away? These are the two aspects on the app I use the most and they are becoming borderline unusable. It has gotten to the point I can access the teams roster faster through googling their website than actually using the app which I have to tap through about 4 different screens to finally find the roster. And now rosters don’t even have the capability to sort players by number, position, or name; they are just a stagnant website page that is identical to the failed app which is the MiLB app. Also it received an appearance downgrade as well with rosters being just a list of players instead where you must tap on the players name(which is not clearly a hyperlink) to view their stats. The cell for each player(how the rosters were previously presented) was much sleeker looking, had better sorting functionally, and was a clear upgrade over how it is being presented now. Please put rosters back to the way they were!!!.PuglovernowVersion: 24.21.0
Be weary of this oneThe muscle of this app has atrophied steadily over the last 5 years. Player and team stats are nice, but if your reason for using this app is primarily for streaming radio games (my total preference since radio game-callers are so much better) be prepared to get annoyed. After paying 30 bucks you’d expect good performance. Instead, you get last innings clipped in favor of commercials. Switching between games works only 50% of the time. On those occasions the app freezes. You can file a complaint but don’t expect a reply. Oh! And did I mention the same annoying commercials after every half inning? There must be just a handful. They play about a dozen times per game. The same ones! To make it worse, the postgame shows are NOW chopped off almost immediately after the game is over. The app NEVER used to do that. You’re better off downloading the local radio app for your home team. You’ll get commercials, but at least the stream is free (just like the old transistor radio days)..ThomahawkJeffersonVersion: 24.7.1
You removed key functionality for Apple Device users!As of yesterday (12 June 2024), MLB app developers made the arbitrary decision to remove key functionality from Apple iPad and iPhone platforms. I can no longer access the box score of the game I am streaming, nor can I see other game scores or key game data. I called MLB Help to see what was going on, and the agent said that their tech team had decided to remove this functionality for Apple users, and that I should switch to using my computer to see this functionality. What an arrogant and ridiculous decision to make in-season. Any serious baseball fan will demand this functionality when streaming games on MLB. Apple is a HUGE platform to mess with. My next step will be to cancel my subscription. I have been with this MLB app since the beginning, when it was designated the best professional sports app on the market. Now, you have developers who apparently aren’t baseball fans making silly and insulting decisions. Sad to see this quality and attention to the “fan experience” sliding on what was once a great app..Coach Davis 14Version: 24.11.0
Once great product now more expensive, worseWhere to begin. This app costs $30+. Five years ago it was far superior. While following along on the Gameday tab, they’ve taken away showing the hitters’ and pitchers’ stats. Want to know the pitcher’s ERA? Flip over a few tabs. Want to know the hitter’s average, HRs, RBIs? Flip over a few tabs and click on something and wait for it to load. It was showing those things on Gameday ten freaking years ago. How did it get worse?
My coup d’etat, however, is how ABYSMAL the video is. Again, I pay thirty+ dollars for this app. Videos work 10% of the time. Every time I think “maybe they’ll work better if I update the app.” Negative. “Maybe they’ll work better if I turn off wifi.” Negative. It is atrocious. It is the year 2024. This app costs actual US dollars.
If they fired up the engine from 2015 and reverted the app back to that, I’d be ecstatic. I just don’t understand. Worse, more expensive product and they expect us to thank them for it..TorinAWVersion: 24.12.0
App lost functionality during seasonI have been using this app for 2+ years on my iPad (running the latest iOS). It was great until this season. After working fine in the beginning of the season, an update caused all of the live (in game data) to disappear. This has continued with several subsequent updates. For those who have not used the app, during the game you were able to see lots of live data. On the bottom was information about players, averages, on deck, etc. on top was a band with all of the current scores throughout the league (which you could select and jump to that game, as well as information one could swipe to view from either side. All of this disappeared. On top of everything else, changing to another game resulted in a dialogue box telling me that I needs to restart the app. I contacted customer service and was told to use another platform (like my laptop) Really? Something seems amiss when they brick a sizable portion of the app and appear indifferent to its effect on the user..GregJ San JoseVersion: 24.13.0
Radio is brokenI've been a subscriber for a while now and listen to games frequently. In the last couple weeks, they’ve updated something with the radio function of the app that causes it to lag way behind the action of the game. I know latency exists in the internet, but I'm talking 2-3 batters behind the game on TV. It's very frustrating to be so far behind the action and it never used to be like this until a few weeks ago. Please fix it! Update for 2023: this is still a problem! Was working fine during spring training and I thought it was fixed. Regular season starts and it’s right back to a horribly delayed radio feed. FIX IT!
Update for June 2023 - I’ve submitted this review a few times. I’ve put in customer service complaints over and over. Not only does MLB refuse to help, they refuse to admit it’s a problem. So to add another complaint - every commercial break is the same three very VERY annoying ads superimposed over the broadcast feed. Three ads, twice an inning, nine innings, every day. It’s unlistenable..Matt cogginsVersion: 16.7.0
Blackout restrictionsIm located in Chesapeake, VA. I understand that the only games that would be “Blacked out” for me would be the home games for the Nationals and the Orioles. A lot of times when I’m trying to watch the Red Sox (my favorite team) a lot of their games are blacked out and they would be somewhere that’s not Washington DC or Baltimore. For example; currently at this minute, I’m trying to watch the Red Sox @ Yankees game and it’s been telling me since yesterday’s game that it’s blacked out. Yesterday, I was able to stream it from my phone, but on my tv it said it was blacked out. But for tonight’s game, I can’t stream it from anywhere.
MLB needs to really fix their “black out” restrictions, they have had this problem for years, I remember it from when I was a kid when me and my dad would try to watch a Red Sox game, it would get randomly blacked out.
The app is nice, when I’m able to watch a game with the most rivalry in sports history (which I haven’t been able to) so Thanks MLB.Thingrayline75Version: 24.12.0
Horrible usabilityVery few users are going to leave this app open in the foreground. But if you don’t, the app will constantly reset itself, meaning that it quits playing audio in the middle of the game you’re listening to, takes you back to the main screen, loses not only the position of the game you were at while you were listening, but also loses the entire game, forcing you to go back through the schedule to the date of the game you were listening to, restart the game, and then try to scroll over to the approximate place where you were at when the app dumped all over you.
I don’t know what person designed this app, but clearly they not only do not know anything about how to design an app, they clearly don’t understand how people want to use an app like this. It actually deserves zero stars. But of course that’s not an option. The people responsible for this app need to be fired, MLB needs to go back to the drawing board and design a functional app for users..LDMartin1959Version: 24.10.1
This app was incredible… now it’s a disgrace and a sham.I’ve had the MLB app since it was known as AtBat and have paid for a subscription since then… I have contemplated getting rid of the app and subscription for several years now, and I can finally say I’m going to bite the bullet and quit it. There is literally nothing on the app that you can’t do for free elsewhere now.
What pushes me over the edge is the radio and video playback (not to mention the countless other bugs/issues in). The fact that with the subscription MLB only shows us the scoring videos without ads is a COMPLETE SHAM. We used to be able to watch every game video without ads… now you have to watch more even though you pay money??? Mega disappointment.
And perhaps to put the cherry on top… the radio playback is a complete disaster. Since MLB switched to Audacy last year it’s never been the same. The quality and playback are nonexistent. Why try to listen here when you can listen on literally so many other apps??
I had hope that this year they would make necessary changes and come up with solutions to the apps many persistent issues. But obviously this is not the case. If I could get my money back for the subscription, I would delete it right now.
This app used to be absolutely indispensable to baseball fans. Now it’s broken and not worth having it on your phone… the phrase “if it ain’t broke, don’t fix it” comes to mind over this mess..SamdrewwVersion: 16.2.2

Annoying CarPlay issuesEvery time I launch the MLB app through CarPlay, I am asked to log in. I then have to take my phone out and log in to the app. Only at that point, I can access the day’s schedule and listen to the various games. This behavior is worse than it used to be. It defeats the entire purpose of hands free driving. Other than the above, I love the app when it’s just the smartphone experience.
At the time of my original view, I gave it a rating of 3 out of 5 stars because I found the app to be very reliable outside of my CarPlay issues. However, since that time I have noticed no change in the described behavior nor has anyone reached out to try and troubleshoot the problem.
The answer to my troubleshooting efforts is:
“Yes, I have rebooted the phone and stopped other apps from running and yet the behavior doesn’t change. That is every time I launch the MLB app from the CarPlay interface, it tells me I need a subscription. I then have to launch the app from my phone and tell it to launch my current subscription before I can get a list of the day’s games.“
This does not make for a pleasant experience. Frankly, I find the hoop jumping behavior to be “ridiculous”.
As such, I have revised my rating down to a single star. Maybe this will get someone’s attention. Perhaps, it will even prompt MLB (and/or possibly Apple) into finding a solution to the issue.

The lack of playoff coverage in Canada is a travestyHow can you offer great coverage during the regular season and then decide to black out all playoff games to MLB App users in Canada?

BlackoutsThe fact that every single bluejays game If blacked out if you live in Canada is terrible. That and despite paying upwards of $200 for ‘premium’ you still get spoon fed the same add 3 times in a row every single commercial break is downright insulting to my intelligence. And they have not responded to numerous emails telling them this..Enkindle23Version: 24.13.0
MLB ripoffThe MLB is all about filling their pockets with fans’ money..DerSLKVersion: 24.13.0
Very poor appI like to watch the Mariners games on tape delay, however, the app will not let me start from the beginning. Forces me to go to the end and rewind, which shows me the final score so defeats the purpose. It yet used to let me start from the beginning, but that doesn’t work anymore..GoMariners44!!!Version: 24.13.0
Latest Update Requires New PhoneLove the app but I cannot update to the new version on my phone, because of new iOS requirement. Since I can’t afford a new phone, I am done with the MLB app. Somehow, this doesn’t seem quite right to me - enforcing a pay to play mentality.
If someone can tell me how to get around this issue, it would be appreciated. I have the same iOS issue with the Ballpark app too!.Skip DiamondVersion: 16.20.0
