User Reviews

Users broadly praise the app for enabling Sharks games on iPhone/iPad and for radio-like audio, easy navigation, and access to pre/post game content. However, reliability is the main issue, with persistent buffering, disconnects, errors, and startup/configuration problems after updates. Compatibility with older devices and intrusive ads also surface as recurring complaints. Overall, strong value for mobile listening exists, but performance and stability need significant improvement.

Pros

Allows sharks games to be listened to on iPhone/iPad anywhere (including while traveling)
Audio quality is good and feels radio-like when the stream is working
Easy to navigate and use with quick access to content (e.g., contests, pre/post game shows)
Access to Sharks content beyond live games (pre/post game shows)
Recent updates show some improvements in stability and reduced buffering in certain versions

Cons

Frequent buffering and disconnects; feed cuts out often and requires restarts
Streaming errors or unavailability messages (e.g., 'live streaming sports coverage isn’t available', 'error') and difficulty finding content at times
Startup/configuration problems after updates (e.g., can't get past configuring)
Compatibility issues on older devices (iPad/older iPhone with iOS7) and reliance on Flash
Ads/video ads loading at startup or before buffering causing failures

All I get is an error that says “live streaming sports coverage isn’t available” and to “tune in again another time” to listen. There isn’t even a game being played!!!
