This is by far, the worst app in the history of apps, maybe ever. I would give it 0 stars if I could. All staff in charge of this app, and all managers, need to be fired immediately and replaced by literally anyone. The app never works, especially when an Orioles game is on, and is a complete and utter failure. This app is so bad it makes the Orioles look good. Never in my 30 years on this earth have I ever thought I would have the the will to go out of my way to write a review on anything, good or bad, and somehow this app is so monumentally frustrating, I dropped everything to write this review. Literally everything, my fiancée is currently waiting for me at the alter, I left our 5 year old at the bus stop, and my manager is threatening to fire me for not working right now to write this. If anyone from MASN reads this, I suggest you do everything in your power to hide your career choice from your friends, family, and loved ones at all costs. Have a terrible day.

You’re going to need a cable provider in order to watch— okay that I can understand, MASN is a cable network. Inconvenient but that is how the industry works. Hopefully boomer execs realize they could charge a subscription fee like any other streaming service and rake in $6 a month pretty easily. What I don’t understand is the following: - same 4 ads in rotation and start playing anytime you click on either of the channels (MASN or MASN2) - Ads are FAR LOUDER than the programming audio. Meaning you are constantly having to turn down stream when games cut to commercial. I cannot stress enough how much louder these draft kings commercial are versus the audio level of the actual programming - can’t minimize app to send text, etc. and video can’t play in PiP or just audio in background. So if you leave the app for even just a second, you’re going to have to re-click on the channel and then sit through the 3+ minute ad break before the video plays again. This does not make sense for a live tv player on phone and greatly hinders user experience. Not to mention the stream delay, which is significantly behind the illegal streams found online. At least I can watch my baby birds take the AL east on my phone, I just have to dedicate my entire device to using this one app to do so🫠

I agree with the other reviewer concerning the fact that there is only access to watch games if you have cable tv or a $100/month DirectTV streaming subscription. The amount of money made from ticket sales and advertising revenue and then you have no way to even watch the games without cable or a $100/month subscription to an obscure streaming service that no one wants? This is not getting with the times. It’s take one step forward but two steps back. You should have a streaming platform that allows people to pay a small fee to subscribe to MASN and stream Orioles games. You are in the pockets of cable tv, which so many people have eliminated because of subscriptions to streaming platforms and yet you’ve made it extremely hard to even watch Orioles games anymore - especially since eliminating WJZ as an alternative for watching Orioles’ games. This is simply asinine! Thanks for nothing!
