Comments

Have been using this app for ages. Never had an issue until recently. You put in tips and sometimes they don’t register. This has happened to several people in our Comp. I could see correct tips on one page but the score was not the same on the ladder. For example, I got 7 out of 9 correct. This is clearly displayed on one page. But, the ladder shows 6 out of 9. I have sent numerous emails and have had no response. Very frustrating

I usually go through the official AFL app but decided to give ESPN ago again (as an individual not a group comp) after not going through them for 9 years and I’m not impressed to be honest. It is a very, very basic app with out the essentials, which is ok if you’re not really into footy and just wanting to input your tips for your comp and wait for the results at the end of the week, but, I like to check each games score progress throughout which I don’t get on this app.The official afl app will show live scores throughout the game on your tipping screen (next to each club). This one just tells you who you have tipped, percentage and what quarter the game is up to. If you want live scores you have to google them outside of the app. It’s also a very basic looking app, I missed my margin input in round 1 because nothing stands out and just bends into the background, I couldn’t see properly where to put my margin in. I can’t comment on the group competition side as I’m tipping as an individual. This App really needs a bit more life put into it really, it just looks like a beginner has slapped together an app without much thought.

I love this app. It manages any group’s tipping and shows a leaderboard. Results every round are emailed to individual participants. My only gripe is the final round results showing your pick’s team colours and a tick or cross disappears too soon after the round is ended. I go to look for the results the next day and it just says enter this round’s tips. It would be great if you could leave the previous round’s results up with the enter next round tips button just underneath.

Never used to have a problem until this year I went to Bali and it just constantly buffers at the log in stage even though I’m using a vpn and everything else is fine with my connection had to uninstall then reinstall the app to work that lasted a day now back to the same issue again not good when trying to get your tips in without having to msg the guy running the comp to put my tips in this needs fixing .

Just came here to say that I really think espn should add an extra tipping competition (like streaks and or flexi) that allows you to tip on either side of the bookmakers line for the game (effectively making each tip a 50/50). Doing this would really help to make each game much more interesting as the tipping would be much more split and you wouldn’t have so many meaningless games where everyone has tipped the strong favourite (like Melbourne) to beat the big upset (like kangaroos).
