Recent reviews
For prior review see below. This newer review is about their ads: it got very annoying.
2nd: it is about battery consumption when it runs in the background. It drains my iPhone battery quite quickly!
3rd: I also have the impression that kicker+ articles are now more and less content is free.
So removing stars to only 2

Details:
Quite often u are forced to see an ad for about 5 secs before a hardly visible button shows to close it and move on to the content. When scrolling through articles it happens quite often that u accidentally hit an ad and then your trip through various apps starts: first the browser pops up, then amazon may pop up …. This is no accident, i believe the ads are placed in a way that it is almost inevitable to tap on one.
Battery drain: I noticed that when I don’t close the app completely it totally drains my battery on my iPhone
Kicker+ vs free content: It seems like there is less free and more premium content. Given the annoying ads that is just adding to the dissatisfaction with the app.
I still use it b/c I’m a creature of habit and I don’t know of better alternatives , although I read more and more often sports content from major papers
Prior review:
The last update to universal app came with quite a few graphics changes that work out great. App feels much more contemporary. E.g. The top nav bar is easier to navigate and clearer. I also like that you now see both teams starting 11 on the same page.
Where it could be better is their coverage of international leagues. I find it strange that it's easier to find the Chinese or Japanese league but difficult to find a South American league in Brazil and Argentina. Being a German app I like that they cover the lower divisions but there is coverage for 3 division leagues (and 4th or lower English divisions) in who knows where but no coverage for South American 2nd divisions. It would also be nice to have the competing football/soccer leagues in the US listed such as the NASL to follow teams like Cosmos NY not just the MLS. German league coverage aside, I find their international league focus is too much geared toward what currently is creating the biggest money hype.
Their coverage of South American cups like the Libertadores could also be better. This is the biggest club competition aside the UEFA Champions League. Lots of famous clubs play there. When they cover some of the leagues above it is tough to navigate to.
I personally also don't care at all about their "esports" coverage. To me that's another moving to the money hype move. I'm not against covering it but I find it too prevalent. Especially if they fall short in covering other leagues. While not a key interest for me, their women soccer coverage could also be better. Especially if they devote so much to esports and China.

Ich lese gern die Artikel von Kicker, weil es die beste Abdeckung fer Bundesliga gibt, das ich finden kann. Aber ich habe einen Wunsch: ich wünsche das ich die Text von die Artikel kopieren können. Bin ein Amerikaner und versuche mein Deutsch üben, aber ich kann nicht die Wörter, die ich nicht kenne, Übersetzen. Wenn ich die kopieren könnte, dann könnte ich die Artikel besser verstehen.
