User Reviews

Users generally value the ISU Cyclones app for keeping fans informed with timely news, in-depth features, and easy access to live and on-demand content. However, repeated reliability problems—video playback failures, app crashes after updates, and login/premium access glitches—greatly hinder the experience. Intrusive ads and navigation issues, including outdated event times, further detract from usability. The core content and fan value are evident, but significant improvements in performance, video reliability, and UX are needed to satisfy the broader user base.

Pros

Keeps ISU fans up-to-date with news, features, and personal stories; informative and engaging.
Offers in-depth articles and well-written content about athletes, coaches, and staff.
Provides easy, mobile access to live events, video content, and coach shows for fans anywhere.
Overall positive experience for many fans; the app serves as a central hub for Cyclone athletics.

Cons

Video streaming and playback issues: frequent loading failures, buffering, or videos not playable.
App stability problems: crashes or the app not launching after updates.
Login and premium access problems: can't log in via Facebook/Apple/email and premium content disappearing.
Intrusive ads: pop-up ads that are difficult to close interrupt use.
UX/navigation issues and outdated information: hard to locate content, non-intuitive UI, start times not updating.

Every once in a while, will drain my battery with cell data shut off and the app not being used. Too much of a liability when I'm working or traveling. Uninstalled.

Doesn’t line up, focuses on adds, content hard to find and if posted, posted well after the event.

The past two iterations of the Cyclones app have been pretty lousy in my opinion (and some friends.). They have not been designed very intuitively. It’s hard to figure out where to find the information you are looking for. The current version only informs the user if the event will be televised about half the time. The need to hire an app developer that is a sports fan and not just someone trying to score a buck!
