User Reviews

The Athlete Central Android app serves athletes to submit their whereabouts, with some users finding it improved over previous systems. However, most user reviews highlight critical issues: the app often crashes or fails to load, notifications do not work reliably, and biometric login features are frequently broken. These persistent problems make it difficult or impossible for many to use the app as intended. Regional access restrictions further limit usability. While updates have been released, many users still experience significant bugs impacting app functionality.

Pros

Some users report the app being easier and better than the previous system after updates.
The app has biometric login options (fingerprint) for convenience, although not always reliable.
Improved interface and usability claimed by a few users after initial problems.
The app fulfills an important purpose for athletes to submit whereabouts information.
Developers have released updates attempting to fix issues.

Cons

App frequently fails to open or get past the login/loading screen on multiple devices.
Notifications for reminders do not arrive as expected or are delayed.
Biometric login features often don't work, requiring manual verification code entry.
Persistent bugs cause crashes or freezing, making it unusable for long periods.
Regional access issues due to geo-restrictions or internet filtering (e.g., in Iran).

Recent reviews

Unreliable and glitchy Previously it has failed to pass on additional information for my address, meaning testers have struggled to access my property. I have notifications set to 30mins before my hour slot. However, these never come through until I try and log into the app when then all come at once. I set the app to use biometric log ins but it hasn't changed so I still have to use the text verification which today isn't working at all so I am unable to log in.

A *****, 2024-03-04

If I could give it 0 stars, I would. Terribly built app that's about as user friendly as a chocolate teapot. Considering the consequences of misuse to an athlete. Some serious work needs doing.
