User Reviews

Reviewers largely agree Willow offers the core service of live cricket streaming, especially for US viewers. However, recurring problems across many reviews include stability issues (crashes and buffering), questionable billing practices (auto-renew charges and cancelled subs still billed), disruptive advertising on paid plans, and limited content (few full replays, emphasis on highlights, rapid disappearance of older matches). Users also complain about a cluttered UI, difficult navigation, and weak customer support. The app has improved with newer updates, but reliability and user experience remain mixed.
Pros
  • Provides live cricket streaming for US-based fans (core service).
  • Recent updates improve usability and make the UI feel more polished and intuitive.
  • If functioning, the coverage is strong and reliable.
Cons
  • Frequent crashes, outages, and playback interruptions; app often unstable.
  • Billing and renewal problems, including charges after cancellation and auto-renew issues.
  • Ads interrupt the experience even for paid subscribers; ad frequency and placement are disruptive.
  • Content limitations: lack of full match replays (highlights only) and content disappearing quickly; some devices can't access full matches (e.g., iPad).
  • Difficult navigation and a cluttered, hard-to-use interface with inconsistent content discovery.

There are no tweaks and software updates from Willow that make the user experience better. From poorly categorized videos to frustratingly ill-times commercial breaks, to random system changes, you’ve got it all! After an update, your previous personal settings simply vanish and when you contact customer service (which in itself is a laborious process for today’s user), you’re given cookie-cutter responses with no fix in the first place. The lack of streaming competition and lack of clarity in cable packages are the side effect of media companies who want your money at the cost of delightful user experience.

Very repetitive and very frequent ads make this almost unwatchable.

They took an app that was never good but at least functional, and somehow made it worse. You used to be able to watch replays without seeing scores, and they updated the Ui and now the scores are impossible to miss but the replay video are more difficult to find. And then the replays don’t work, or you get 5 overs in and the video just returns to the start, or there’s a catch hit in the air and they cut to an ad! I cancelled. I’d rather not watch cricket, my favorite sport, that sit through this app nightmare. How to kill the growth of cricket in the US in one easy step.
