Works but annoying

I listen to a lot of Internet radio so I know How streaming audio ought to work. This app often works and you can usually get it to play. But often you have to select another stream and then come back Sometimes it gives you an elegant "Playback failed" but mostly it just stops for no reason. This is not necessary. I can only think they dont care.

Will drive you to ESPN.

Like other reviews, the app doesnt provide steady audio. You only get a few minutes before it loops. Forced me to ESPN; missing local call. The local call THATS 108 YEARS IN THE MAKING.

getting worse with time

this app use to be awesome. i honestly cant even use this app now. notifications are obtrusive and solicitive like. ive taken at bat off my home screen as my go to app, out of my widgets, and turned the notifications off. at bat is just a way to advertise and its ashame. make at bat great again.. thanks donald.

Buy the annual or monthly awesome app

Best sports app by far. Reason able prices and quality unmatched. Glad the NHL put their stuff on this tech too.

Pitch tracking is significantly behind broadcast

I downloaded this app and subscribed during the series so I could watch the pitch tracking alongside the games on TV. Unfortunately, there was a significant and seemingly variable delay between when the pitch was shown on TV and when it showed up in the app. There were times where, a couple pitches into the current batter on TV, I was still having pitches to the previous batter coming in on the app. This is inexcusable, especially since FOX had such a long censor delay with their World Series broadcasts. That should be plenty of time for the pitch tracking data to show up around when the pitch occurs on TV.

Ads Have Ruined This App

Ads everywhere now, when will it stop? App is almost unusable because of it and is a shadow of what it used. 30 second ads for EVERY SINGLE highlight I want to watch, even if the highlight is 10 seconds long. Oh, want to see a box score? Heres another ad. UNINSTALLED- Im horribly disappointed that MLB is this greedy for ad revenue that they would ruin what used to be my favorite app.

A bit misleading

Its really too bad in order to make full use you have to buy this AND have cable AND have a MLB account. For those of us who dont have cable its a pain and a bit misleading.

Good For Notifications

Does what I need it to flawlessly so far. 20 second ads for 5 seconds of video is a bit ridiculous but I didnt download it for videos. All I wanted was the notifications during games so Im happy for now.

Just missing one thing: audio archives

As a three-year subscriber to the streaming-audio package, it upsets me that I can access archived audio streams of past games on my desktop web browser but not in this app. Please add! Other than that, this app is feature-packed and great for fans.

Great concept

Love the app, used it first time this year, will sign up again next year if cost remains reasonable.

Tone down the notifications

So many notifications...I know you can turn them off, but come on settle down.

News alerts not on app

I keep getting news alerts for my team, and when I click on the notification (which often is longer than the alert, so it gets cut off), I cannot find the news on my teams page. Additionally, there is no way to search for news. Its frustrating to not be able to access the news the app is notifying me of.

Bad charges

I love the app, but I put the app on vacation before the playoffs started, and you still charged me. I will drop the app all together if you dont give me my money back for November. Please let me know what is going to happen. Thank you.

 TV update request

Love the iOS and TVOS apps but can you guys deliver live stream of MLB Network?

Video Replays Issue

Do you think you can fix the video replays by next season. After 3 or 4 tries in the portrait mode the video disappears. Good luck next year, I will not be a customer. Unbelievable app support. Just terrible.

Good, but Cut4 issues...

I dont know if im the only one that notices this, but when you go on Cut4 and try and read an article farther back then August 15, 2014, an error screen shows up. This app has been through around twenty updates since it showed up, and they still havent fixed it. This app is really cool, especially for a baseball fan like me, but Cut4 is the best part, and its suffering.

Amazing

If you use this app everyday for three years, you will learn to love it. You can download schedules, catch up on baseball news, and even stream games for a relatively low price. If you are not an internet troll used to perfect video quality and pristine graphics, you will join me in supporting this fantastic app!#️⃣❤️

Are they even TRYING?

Annoying slow and choppy graphics with news and alerts that are always 3-5 minutes behind.

How to cancel monthly subscriptions on MLB app

Found out I was being charge 3bucks a month during the off season. Though I like the product experience - I assumed I could cancel my subscription through the app. I failed to find it. Perhaps its by design or another business value. Honestly, as a digital designer myself, I found it unethical UX scenario to have it buried in App Store subscriptions. Though I cancelled it, I wanted to share the steps to cancel the monthly subscriptions for others. Im very curious on your revenue stream with this current UX practice. Alas, heres the solution below: 7. iTunes In-App Purchase and Cancellation Information Purchasing an iTunes Subscription In-app purchases are purchased from and billed by iTunes, not MLB.com. These purchases are subject to the terms and conditions of iTunes. iTunes will bill the monthly subscription to At Bat as "At Bat Premium" and the season purchase of At Bat as "At Bat 14." While the billing name differs, the features are the same. All billing and refund inquiries must be directed to iTunes. MLB.com does not have access to iTunes accounts or transactions. The At Bat Premium monthly purchase is valid for 30 days and will be re-billed every 30 days year-round by iTunes until cancelled by the user. iTunes will send a monthly e-mail well in advance of renewal containing a hyperlink to manage the subscription. iTunes subscriptions can be managed from a mobile device or computer that uses the same Apple ID as the initial purchase. MLB.com cannot manage iTunes subscriptions. iTunes cancellation steps are listed below for your convenience. Restoring a previous iTunes purchase Subscribers who have made an in-app purchase through iTunes will use the Restore button on the paywall, for example, when reinstalling the application on an existing iOS or new iOS device. A restore can only be completed on devices which share the same Apple ID as the initial purchase. Cancelling an iTunes Monthly Subscription Mobile Device From your iOS home screen, tap "App Store" Tap "Featured" at the bottom of the screen Scroll to the bottom of the page Tap the "Apple ID" button in the lower left corner; if you are not signed in, tap the "Sign in" button, sign in with your Apple ID, and then scroll back to the bottom of the page, and tap the "Apple ID" button Tap the "View Apple ID" button Enter your password and tap "OK" From the main account page, scroll down and tap "Manage App Subscriptions" or “Manage” under the subscriptions section depending on the version of iOS installed; if you dont have app subscriptions, this button or section will not be displayed Choose an app subscription to manage (if multiple are available) Tap the subscription category for which you want to disable auto-renewal Toggle the switch to "Off" Youll receive a pop-up confirmation message; tap "Turn Off" to confirm your choice. Computer Launch iTunes on your computer Choose "Store">"Sign In" from the iTunes menu Enter your Apple ID and password when prompted Choose "Store">"View My Account"; you may be asked to re-enter your Apple ID password; click "View Account" From the "Account Information" screen, scroll to the bottom of the page to the "Settings" section Click "Manage" to the right of "Subscriptions” From the "Manage Subscription" screen, click on the subscription that you would like to manage On the "Edit Subscription" screen, you will see the current subscription status and subscription details Click the "Off" radio button to turn off "Auto-Renewal" You will see a confirmation window asking you to confirm Click "Continue" to proceed; you will no longer be billed for your subscription and it will be valid until the expiration date

Videos

Why are we only shown 15-30 second clips in the articles section. I used to watch ten minute segments of hot stove, MLB now, ect. now I can hardly keep up with the networks news. Is it out of pure laziness? Also, for 2017, please go back to showing longer highlights.
