The afl app is even worse than it normally is this year.

[HawkMongrel]

Yeah they've added links on the home page to the current live streams.

The match listing is still cooked but at least the streams are accessible now.

 

[Fuzzy Happy Poo]

im now able to watch live game if i sort the fixture by team and can select 2017, then selecting a team who is playing scrolling down to round 6 and I can watch. bit of a hassle if i want to switch games

edit links are on the homepage of the app

"Evidence" Its not a crime that the app stuffed up for 20 minutes mate. Wasting your time if you're hoping to gain anything from this.

You obviously haven't made a complaint to consumer affairs before.

The Swans have hacked the app to hide the embarrassment of a club they have become today

if you pay for a service and you don't get that service you should be eligible for compensation.

Hawks, surely?

Looks like season 2017 doesn't exist at all and we have to start again.

**** yes.

If you're happy being treated like a chump and just bitching about it on Bigfooty, then all power to you. But there are regulations that protect the consumer, whether that's through the ACCC or the various ombudsmans. I'm just letting people know if they're pissed off enough about it, it's easy enough to make a call to someone.

I'm just saying mate, it was down for what, 20 minutes? The streams working fine now.

That's today. Every week there is an issue. What do we use the app for on the weekends? Score and stat updates, plus the games. Every week there is an issue. It's the AFL's own app. As people are reporting, a third party app is providing better service.

 

[John the Butcher]

Surely a piss take?

 

[JHF1870]

I think its been better than last year. I watched a game last year and it kept cutting out, its been much better so far. The lastest outage was only for 20 mintues. Not ideal but its been ok.

20 minutes is a lot, it's about 17% of game time. A significant chuck

There were two games on at the same time, too.

Yeah I thought the Hawks should be playing VFL as well

 

[Philth]

Just installed footy live and it seems heaps better than afl live.
What are people's favourite apps?

Have not read 1 post but my thought is this is a marketing tactic to get people to buy Foxtel. That there is trouble in this day staggers me. It must be deliberate

I don't know if it's a common problem, but if i listen to a game via the radio the notification won't go away until I restart my phone.

I have an android, so maybe just an android problem..... But it's bloody annoying.

I had that a few weeks ago.

I took them up on the offer and was blunt and to the point. But still wrote them a long ass complaint of all the specific issues i have experienced.

I thought the same thing about it being a really bad joke. But took them up on the offer to vent my anger about the app.

Felt good.

 

[caitsith01]

It's a piece of shit. That's what happens when you outsource your IT work to Telstra, who are both incompetent and directly interested in the success of Foxtel.

 

[Gods_Son23]

Used it for the first time for the WC game just played. Even worse than I thought it would be based on what I've heard.

 

[romeohwho]

Have found several annoying features this year-eg having to scroll through to find the current game instead of just going straight to it...but now, as of today, is only giving me 2016 games- lol-what's going on.

Even Basil from channel 7 having a crack at how useless the app is.

AFL to remove his accreditation by Monday
