  1. [R1] MiLB 1/5 · US Can’t get my season tickets: On our way to the game and now the app keeps saying something went wrong so we won’t have our season tickets
  2. [R4] MiLB 1/5 · US A complete dumpster fire: EDIT: Given the dozens of recent one-star reviews citing the same problem, I see that my experience IS typical. The latest update to the app was four days ago. Why release anything else when this core functionality is so broken? I’m irate now, but I would have gone nuclear if I waited until I got to the ballpark tonight and encountered this steaming pile of an app. PLEASE
  3. [R13] MiLB 1/5 · US Terrible interface: The system is co fused with MLB and I can never access my tickets this way. Almost not worth going.
  4. [R16] MiLB 1/5 · US Issue with accessing tickets: I can’t access my tickets. The app is very slow when pulling up the tickets. It doesn’t matter if I’m on cellular data or WiFi.
  5. [R7] MiLB 1/5 · US Can't Sign In: Continually unable to authenticate my account information, requiring me to create a new password every time I try to login.
  6. [R19] MiLB 1/5 · US Not user friendly: Every time you try to get in the app you have to have a code sent to you. Should be set up so that it remembers the user.
  7. [R22] MiLB 1/5 · US Can’t login: Tried to log in with MLB and it never sends the code to verify
  8. [R60] MiLB 1/5 · US Hard to use: Took way too much time to login and verify my account. No idea why this app did not work well for me. I followed the instructions.
  9. [R2] MiLB 5/5 · US Nice, game: I love to see these young guys trying so hard. They have a dream. Luis Lara just went to the majors. He did good.
  10. [R5] MiLB 5/5 · US 😄👍: Greenjackets.i can’t see them anywhere else
  11. [R8] MiLB 4/5 · US Dark Mode option + Apple TV App: Please allow a Dark Mode option. The white background hurts my eyes. Also please make a stand alone MILB Apple TV app. That would be awesome.
  12. [R9] MiLB 3/5 · US Not as good as MLB app: The app is decent but it has flaws and is missing some important functionality. The biggest problem is that the playback of games stops if you close the app. There is no minimized window for the video so you have to stay in the app. The app is also missing the “hide scores” setting toggle that the MLB app has. Finally, there is no archived audio and live video is limited to
  13. [R18] MiLB 3/5 · US Loading: App takes a long time to load My Tickets
  14. [R37] MiLB 1/5 · US Impossible to access tickets easily: How is it in 2026 it's so difficult to access tickets within an app? There's many steps to access the tickets and even then, the app is buggy and I'm not able to access my team at times.
  15. [R82] MLB Ballpark 1/5 · US USELESS!!!: This is the single worst app I have ever used. It will not send a verification code to finish install and there is NO app support.
  16. [R11] MiLB 5/5 · US MILB App: Excellent, great coverage of all minor league teams!
  17. [R14] MiLB 5/5 · US Helpful: Good for MiLB news and updates
  18. [R15] MiLB 3/5 · US Gameday out of app?: The Gameday not being in app is very annoying. When you click on it, it takes you to a url/webpage. When you click on a player in the box score, it takes you back to the app. When you close the player page, you go back to the team page, and have to press and wait for Gameday to reload in an external url. It’s annoying to use.
