Ratings and reviews

I pretty much only use this to watch baseball on my phone (Galaxy A8). Last year, the app was such a battery hog it drained the battery even with the phone plugged in, and the phone got extremely hot. Updated today to watch some spring training, and it seems they fixed the battery issue...by not preventing the phone from sleeping. I suppose the battery won't run out as fast with the phone asleep!

Without fail, I need to sign in every time I use the app. Banking apps are easier to sign into than this up. The live feed is atrocious. You get 10 seconds of smooth streaming paired with 3 seconds of paused buffering, then the cycle continues. This is with my PS4, my smartphone, and the Sportsnet Now Website. It's rare to stream HD picture smoothly over an extended period of time. I just want to watch hockey. I have my PS4 hardwired in via Ethernet, so it's not wifi connectivity issues.

Why is there no option to lower the video quality? This app RIPS through data, and having access to reliable wifi isn't always an option. It's pretty annoying to restart a live event, as you only have the ability to skip 30 secs at a time, one click at a time. and it almost always jumps to live. If you are watching the event live and want to pause it or rewind, you can't. It glitches and goes back to live. Sounds off from video feed, and will start the feed late if it's not a sprtsnet broadcast
