User Reviews for MiLB First Pitch
We all make mistakes
I also once hired my unqualified nephew to redesign my product because my sister and mom guilted me into it. I also thought the half-baked ideas he gleaned from his half semester at community college before dropping out sounded at minimum different than what we were already doing. I also lost revenue and respect as a result of his ineptitude and my own terrible decisions.(Hang on. That's not what happened with this app? Oh.)Well, I also worked for a group that provided an efficient and satisfactory service, which meant they really didn't need much from me. This made me frightened they might begin to see me as dead weight as there was little reason for me to work on something that already functioned so well. In order to justify my position with the company, I needed to implement a complete overhaul of the product to make it so unbearable they would need to keep me on staff for eternity to undo all of the problems my "improvements" created. Problems such as paying customers bailing like rats on a ship.(That's the one. Feels good. Feels right.)At least 75% of the streams no one will ever get to see via the app are theoretically in HD now. Y'know, 15 years after HD became standard. Maybe if I delete and download the app an eighth time it will work. Maybe? It might be working ... nope, it was just gas.
2019 version extremely disappointing
Last hear was great. Perfect way to catch practically any minor league game across the country. “improvements” for 2019 have significantly reduced the product’s value. Glitches are numerous and we are only one game in so who knows how else I will be disappointed in games to come: screen does not rotate. Games appear as unavailable in game listing once started but actually are if you ignore the text. While watching a game, we no long per have easy access to instant stats, other scores, line ups, with an easy swipe. Pregame coverage is gone. Even the customer service form isn’t functional. Still not sure how to access archived games from yesterday because navigation is screwed up. Not sure why, knowing this version obviously didn't work, MILB didn't just switch back to the 2018 version. I cant recommend it presently, not at $50.
Used to be great
I used to use this app every day to check all sorts of games and stats, HOWEVER, they’ve made an update this year in 2019 in which the app is utterly and completely useless. The way to view schedules are garbage, you can’t view them by game, finding player stats and info is very difficult now, and overall this app is complete trash. If they want people to continue using it they better revert back to the old ways, because this is an absolute joke for an app in 2019.Update: The reviews about how much everyone hates the changes to this app continue to pour in, yet there is no effort of any change on MiLB’s part. This is a pathetic excuse for an app compared to what was our last year and before. I continue to only use a computer to check minor league stats and standings as the way the app is designed is so utterly poor it is unusable. Revert back to the old changes or continue to lose attention from fans you desperately need.
What happened?
Why did you feel the need to “fix” this app. It worked perfectly well for the last 3 years. This new update has ruined The Who milb experience on my smart phone. We no longer can see a teams schedule by the month. That makes it hard to get a visual for where they will be and plan accordingly. Why do we now need to be redirected to a website when choosing to see the box score? Why doesn’t it go to the most current game happening when you choose your team. I have to scroll to today’s game for some reason. Why when i pick to watch do I have to constantly pick double A. It keeps returning to triple every time. Also why do we have to keep signing back in every single day. Get it together. Who ever redesigned this app needs to understand what it is like to be a fan of the milb. This app is complete crap and I want it back the way it was. If it isn’t broke don’t fix it!
Used to love this app, now it’s useless.
I’ve used this app for years to keep up with my (now) husband, and I’ve always loved it. It used to mirror the MLB At Bat app, which was great. Now it’s like they were too lazy to handle the upkeep the app requires. You can’t watch Gameday or see boxscores in the app anymore, they just send you to the website (within the app, but still). Because of this, any notifications you have turned on are useless. No notifications for when games are starting, lead changes, pitching changes, etc., which for many of us is a huge reason we use the app. This update is supposed to be more “user friendly.” It’s not. It’s garbage. None/10 would recommend, and I would definitely not recommend paying for a monthly or annual subscription for the app until they revert to the previous format.
New user, very disappointed
I’m new to following MiLB games closely, because my home town, Amarillo, just got a team. I was excited in the offseason when I found out there was an app supposedly similar to MLB atbat for minor league games. When they FINALLY updated it and added the Sod Poodles the day before the season, however, it became nothing like the At-Bat and basically useless. Everything you could want to look at (Box Scores, Highlights, Audio from the games) just takes you in a pop up window and loads it on the MiLB site. If I wanted to do that, I’d just pull up the site myself. Plus, I turned on the notifications for the Sod Poodles and haven’t gotten a single one. I’ve had better luck turning on Twitter notifications from the team and listening to games in the TuneIn radio app. A refreshed version of last year’s app seems like it would be a lot better. Not sure why this route was chosen.
Great app!
Love the milb app! Great resource. I do have an idea to try and improve though, if possible. When I'm looking though a box score, I know I'd love to see which players are listed on their team's top 30 per MLB pipeline. I'm thinking next to their name they could have the number (e.g. Moncada, #1). Alternatively, maybe just putting their name in bold font or all caps to highlight that they are on the top 30 and then when you click on the players name it would show their overall and organizational ranking. I know most of the guys in my favorite team's top 30 but I rarely know the opponents' top guys. Again, just a thought. Love the app overall!
Literally doesn’t have team schedules
This app has circled the drain for a while now, but this latest development takes the cake. There’s no where to view a basic schedule for a team in the app. Like a quick-glance, refrigerator magnet type schedule. You either have to scroll game my game and get carpal tunnel in your thumb, or can only view “home games” via a link to buy tickets. This seems like it should be the most basic function of a league/sports app, yet it’s totally omitted. In the past they’ve removed native functionality, and it forces you to link to websites for box scores etc. But they’ve included links to buy fake Bitcoin, which is super useful. It’s not like they’ve had any time to work on it or improve it, the 2021 season really snuck up on ‘em after the hectic 2020 MiLB year!
Buggy, bad app
What outsourcing company made this app? It doesn’t remember your login. It’s unintuitive. If you select Double A to view their games, it will switch back to triple A when you leave the screen, but won’t change the header, so you’ll see a bunch of triple A games under the double A header. You have to remember to tap again to get the real schedule. Even when you subscribe you’ll have janky ads all over the app.You can’t set a reminder for game starts, and you have no idea if a game will actually be viewable or not. Audio feeds are done by iHeart. So if the game isn’t broadcasted on video, you basically pay $40 for free iHeart radio with commercials. Did I mention paid subscribers still get janky ads all over the app itself?? We’ll yeah. No thanks. Terrible experience. Also, the iHeart radio stream cuts out once the app goes in the background!!! Literally useless for radio.
Growth of the game?
I have never reviewed an app before but went through the trouble of posting this to share my disappointment in removing box scores from the app. It is no secret that baseball is struggling to maintain its appeal especially with younger fans. Instead of adding functionality, they have removed key elements I suppose in an attempt to force fans to pay for the paid package. Between this and the recently released memo cracking down on the publication of video I question whether this is a sport that wants to retain this once avid fan or in fact any of its fans. Please MLB and MiLB please take your cues from the NBA and embrace the social experience that is being a fan. I hope this latest update is just a stepping stone to an update with greater functionality that hasn’t been released but if anyone reads these please consider adding back box scores. Until then my usage will be 0.
