Ratings and reviews

I only have the Free Sports channel, but based on the playback, I wouldn't feel comfortable paying for the Premier Sports subscription. On my device, I can't watch for more than 20-30 seconds without stream freezing (not due to bad Internet connection). The app actually casts to TV better than on my device, but picture quality changes frequently. Of all my apps, quality of streaming not as good as other apps such as Netflix, Amazon Prime or Now TV. Disappointed.

Love the app, but some issues I have come across are; 1) on demand casting seem to work sporadically. (Live seems to work fine). 2) no option to cast in 720p/1080p. 3) doesn't seem to have all the on demand games/episodes as web page. 4) no app for Android TV (even though it has Google play store). (I would much prefer this option so I can watch straight through my TV, instead of having these casting issues). If these can be fixed/implemented would definitely be 5 stars. Many thanks.

The app is constantly skipping and crashing. It makes watching football almost impossible as the game is shown in 10 second chunks before crashing, then another 10 seconds of play, then perhaps it skips forward 20 seconds then crashes again. Trying to watch Sporting play now and between minute 16 and 18 I think there was 30 seconds max of continuous footage. There is no way I'd pay for the full Premier Player based on this apps performance. Avoid.
