Ratings and reviews

Updated 2018 - keeps crashing when I try to look at player stats or Drives, whether at Camp Randall or elsewhere. About all it is good to me for is looking at schedules. 2015 I like being able to see updated stats. But it keeps refreshing to the top of the page when I've scrolled down. Also not obvious how to find specific non-scoring plays. Update - almost 3 months after reporting issue, the developer says they're working on a fix. We'll see.

Old review appears first, but SEE ADDENDUM BELOW. ...When I select Manage Tickets the app just disappears. It would be convenient to use my phone to enter games, but I can see that's not happening until the bug is fixed. For those who had a similar experience you can print any or all of your tickets from the email that was sent. I have the most up-to-date version--just downloaded it before the Marquette game. If this is how you want us to access tickets, you ought to get a better app developer. Addendum: I added added two stars to my original one-star review for the above reasons. I promptly got an email back from UW and an offer to assist the developer in troubleshooting. It was also suggested that I go into Settings>Apps>Badgers App>Storage and clear the cache and the data. I tried the app again and was able to open the ticket on my phone. If it keeps working, I will add another start or two as indicated.

The Android back button closes the app. On many screens, there's no easy way to go back one page which is a pretty bad experience. And the app should let you download/save all of the tickets for the same game in one action without making you hit several screens for each ticket. It's unnecessarily painful and it makes it even harder to transfer tickets to family or friends.
