BBC Sport

I use the international version to keep up with football and cricket on the live feeds. Since the latest update every 4 comments are followed by a full screen, full volume ad to takes over everything. This makes the entire experience unusable. Scrolling down a live feed is just an exercise in frustration now, please take this back to the previous experience as I just can no longer even use the app if this is going to be the way going forward. Editing this review and adding two more stars, they have slowed down the ads and they no longer take over the volume and the screen. They are still more prolific than they used to be but no more a complete ruination of the experience. If they put it back to how it was a year ago, I’ll add another star. Thank you for this latest update though, helped a lot.

When the ‘new’ format started several years ago, it was good and informative. The picture format is helpful to identify latest news stories. However, my biggest frustration is that it takes several menu option clicks to get to the lower levels (e.g. to view certain divisions in soccer) or you can’t easily always see results and tables in the same place. There needs to be more focus on actual results, trends, latest scores from multiple sports that are more easily accessible on the side of the format, with key news forming other areas. I also access the site everyday from outside of the UK, and so some of the content (e.g. video) isn’t available. You might want to not show these links if they’re not available. And maybe join forces with other sports agencies to widen your news coverage and scope (think Flipboard or Apple News, etc) but become the global hub for sports news? Just a thought …

Would give app a 5 star as it lets ex pats see what is going on in British sport. However, I would like to be able to view the videos. it quite often state not available in your area. This is discrimination to brits who live overseas
