## Review summary

Users value the app's detailed team information, news, and built-in merchandise shop. However, multiple reviews highlight significant issues with the app's login process, unstable ticketing features, and frequent crashes or freezes. Navigation difficulties and outdated or infrequent news updates diminish user experience. While some find the app reasonably easy to use, many express frustration over its slowness, confusing interface, and lack of timely support or responsiveness from the club. These recurring problems suggest the app needs substantial technical and design improvements to meet user expectations.

### Pros

- Provides plenty of information about the Brisbane Lions, including club operations and AFLW stats.
- Includes a shop to buy Lions gear within the app.
- Generally easy to navigate for some users.
- Includes detailed latest stories and news about the team.
- Allows members to access game day information and tickets (despite technical issues).

### Cons

- Login functionality is unreliable, often not working or causing session errors, especially on game day.
- Ticketing system is problematic: difficult access, requires separate Ticketmaster account, and ticket sharing is broken.
- App is slow, clunky, and sometimes crashes or shuts down unexpectedly.
- Navigation is unintuitive and difficult for some users, with help files not matching app content.
- Notifications and news updates are infrequent or mismatch app content, leading users to seek information elsewhere.
