The Philadelphia Eagles app maintains a high lifetime rating and provides a stable experience for its users. In contrast, the NFL app, despite its broader scope, has suffered significantly from recent updates, leading to widespread user frustration and a drastic decline in usability.
Head to head

You absolutely need a general NFL app and are willing to tolerate significant usability issues, intrusive ads, and missing features, hoping for future improvements.

The NFL app, however, has extensive negative feedback from recent updates, providing strong evidence for its current state.

- [R3] NFL NFL app: Waste of time, click on a game you can only see part of the score, I will delete the app
- [R27] NFL Can’t see what any scores are: Literally impossible to see what any score is. I’ve updated about 20 times and still can’t see. Such a disappointment
- [R30] NFL Rubbish: No live scores. What’s the point.
- [R41] NFL What happened to the stats!!!???: This app used to be brilliant. Now there are no team stats, used to be my go to app to check individual player stats, no longer available. PLEASE BRING THIS BACK!! 🙏
- [R4] NFL No Landscape: No landscape mode. Great for everyone with a stand case…not!! Why change it!!
- [R6] NFL Annoying..: What’s the point of sending me a notification if when I click on it, it doesn’t take me to the story I’ve been notified of, just the home page of the app? Rubbish, frankly..
- [R10] NFL Terrible and should be rebuilt: Unusable garbage. Portrait mode only for an app people want to watch videos on? Opening screen that contains 70% empty space? Team favourite screen that contains no actual information about your team unless you scroll through it, and even then the portrait mode leaves stuff off the screen. Who signed off on this rubbish. Every year the nfl’s IT team seem to come
- [R11] NFL Ridiculous in 2024 to only work in portrait mode: Whatever company that put the 2024 version should hang their heads in shame. They clearly have no clue that anyone using the app on a tablet will naturally use it in landscape mode as well as portrait mode. The only time it works in landscape mode is to full screen a video. Not only that but many of the featured videos refuse to start at all. D
- [R1] NFL Crashed: The app has completely crashed, have tried uninstalling and reinstalling but it still doesn’t work, this is the first time I’ve seen a problem with this app, so hopefully they’ll resolve it soon
- [R5] NFL Bugs persist: Nice app for getting details but it's been buggy for a while. Have had issues with video playing, audio on videos, unable to adjust switched setting. Currently I can't enable team alerts. Previously I was unable to disable final score notifications (which seemed to have been turned on automatically during an update). After deleting the app, now I can't turn on other alerts. I'd have
- [R7] NFL The scores keep disappearing.: Every few days all the scores completely disappear & I have to delete the app & download it again. Why?
- [R8] NFL Shocking: For a massive corporation. This has to be the worst app. I click on a news story and get URL too long. It always defaults to game pass telling me to buy it. Even thought I already have it. It’s embarrassingly bad.
- [R22] NFL New update not useful: Since the recent update this app is now unusable. I’m an overseas user (UK) and used this app to keep track of news articles on my iPad. Since the update, the app is locked in portrait mode and the whole left hand side is taken up with the “sign up to NFL+” stuff. I have no interest in signing up, I watch games during the season on gamepass through DAZN now. Unfortunately th
- [R28] NFL Fine, except for the terrible advertising: The app is mostly fine, except for the fact I have to navigate away from an ad for game pass international every time I open it. I get it you want me to buy game pass international, and encourage me to open to app to go and watch full games (once I’ve subscribed). The thing is I’m already a game pass international subscriber, so if I want to watch games
- [R38] NFL Ruined: Used to use this app as casual NFL fan but recent updates/changes mean it no longer works for me. Too many intrusive prompts to subscribe and videos that automatically launch when I am trying to read an article. Will delete.
- [R21] NFL Update: Latest update is a shocker, app is ruined. Everybody hates it, NFL please listen to your clients for once, and restore the app to the previous version. Would give no stars if it were possible.
- [R26] NFL Notifications - useless!: Literally no point in the notifications that tease you bits of news but don’t take you directly to the story when you click them. This has been broken on and off for years. Please fix them!
- [R9] NFL Can’t get into it without sharing personal data: I shouldn’t have to give the app access to my location to be able to use the content. By all means ask for a login, as part of the profile setup request a country, then use that if you are trying to limit content per country, but do not ask for my location just to see some scores and news Current version is utterly useless and can’t use it for any
- [R25] NFL Rubbish app: Insisting on location tracking
- [R45] NFL Stats?: Used this app for 2 reasons.. fixtures before and stats after matches.. now no more stats, downloaded Sleepr which does both, no need for this app anymore , click click deleted!
- [R47] NFL Dreadful for keeping up to date with in game player stats: You used to be able to keep up to date with individual player stats from in-game action. Something I know a lot of NFL fans love .Now it’s just some team bar charts. Where are the proper detailed stats? Rubbish. Which ‘genius’ made that decision? It needs sorting out.
- [R48] NFL Where are the stats???: Used to be good. Now awful, player stats from games don’t work.
