Bleacher Report vs CBS Sports

What reviewers actually said

Built only from these 120 real reviews (foreign ones translated). Superscripts jump to the quote here. Apple has no per-review links, so [ref] opens that app's reviews on the App Store.

1. [R3] Bleacher Report 3/5 · US Not like before: App needs the widget back!
2. [R22] Bleacher Report 2/5 · US Downhill: Used to be a great app but now it’s just a big mess.
3. [R66] CBS Sports 3/5 · US Just ok: The app falls short for minor sports such as wrestling, volleyball and golf. The coverage is weak for many women’s sports, too.
4. [R81] CBS Sports 3/5 · US Great App: Great App, easy to use, especially the Scores tab. Lots of great information on teams and players. Nothing available for the PWHL, HUGE MISS. Drops you from 5 to 3 stars.
5. [R1] Bleacher Report 2/5 · US Ads: I’ve used this app for years but recently I can’t even use it anymore because I’m not getting so many ads on it that I can’t navigate the app. It’s filled with pop-ups and anytime I try to read anything or just navigate the app it’s redirecting me to a third party site. It’s giving off the feel of an unsafe website that will lead to viruses. It’s a shame that the app has gotten to this point.
6. [R6] Bleacher Report 3/5 · US Ads getting worse: I feel like the ads are starting to get worse. It’s starting to be a task just to look at one article, and have to scroll past 15 ads. Please figure something out.
7. [R19] Bleacher Report 1/5 · US Load Times to Open App Ridiculous: Wtf happen to this it take 60+ second to open every time anytime anywhere.
8. [R72] CBS Sports 3/5 · US Update disaster: Could you at least make a setting to allow to view homepage in the old list style? Feels like a lot more scrolling to get similar content, many more videos (there’s a watch tab for that), everything is a large thumbnail that isn’t necessary and takes away from the app.
9. [R10] Bleacher Report 1/5 · US Not receiving notifications: I changed iphones to a most recent one (from iphone 12 to iphone 17) and I haven’t received a notification since. Every setting in the device and in the app regarding allowing notifications are enabled and Im still having this issue. I have tried every troubleshooting Ive found and it still not working. I recently deleted my account and I’ll be deleting this app. I co
10. [R49] Bleacher Report 1/5 · US App is a shell of what it once was: Just a few list of issues on the app, went away from written articles to videos (with ads), incredibly outdated comment section (no way to access prior comments or replies, a terrible reaction interface) and absolutely next to zero original content article wise relying on other sites on information and articles themselves. Genuinely makes me want to move to athl
11. [R96] CBS Sports 1/5 · US Downfall: Was one of the best sports app now constantly wrong scores , wrong times , wrong starters , and completely fabricated events in the game it will tell you that Jalen Brunson hit a three and the score is 145 to 160 when the score is 44-45 in the second it’s really bad , chat will block you for any slang any abbreviations any talk of money line or talks of them rigging also does not go thro
12. [R28] Bleacher Report 1/5 · US Started forcing ads: Keeps getting worse. So bad I finally had enough and deleted the app. Never again BR. You keep opening ads in articles as I try to read them and not allowing me to scroll past them. Worst update ever. No more.
13. [R62] CBS Sports 5/5 · US Good: It’s fun to watch games on here umm yeah it’s good but developers pls respond to me I just think it’s cool lol
14. [R119] CBS Sports 5/5 · US Scores and More at My Fingertips: I’ve used CBS Sports app for years and it has always delivered: news, scores, and my favorite teams’ info as well. Easy to navigate and lots of information at my fingertips.
15. [R13] Bleacher Report 1/5 · US Awful: This app is awful simply because I never get notifications. The reason for this app is B/R is the fastest around when it comes to breaking news. I contacted customer service last week, told them the issue. They replied with a screenshot with how notifications should be set up. Like duh, acting I don’t know what I am doing. Sent a message back and it’s been crickets ever since. 🤦🏻‍♂️
16. [R67] CBS Sports 1/5 · US Stop sending me alerts to review the app: See above
17. [R70] CBS Sports 1/5 · US No more “review” requests please: I use the app a lot and everytime I open it up I’m being asked if I like the app. I give it 5 stars…then get the question again the next time I open it up. Makes me consider using another source as my sports go to.
18. [R61] CBS Sports 1/5 · US Bad Update: The new update makes the app look like social media, not an app that actually has articles with sports stories along with the scores
