## Review summary

User reviews consistently praise GoHeels for live audio broadcasts and schedule updates but report widespread stability and performance issues after recent updates. The most frequent complaints are app crashes on launch, frequent interruptions during live streams (freezes, timeouts, and redirects), and login or account access problems. Several reviews also criticize the redesign for reducing usability and overwhelming the UI with a large 'feature game' block. Additionally, streaming audio often causes devices to overheat and drain battery. Core features remain valuable, but reliability and UX need fixes.

### Pros

- Allows listening to UNC basketball and football broadcasts via live audio.
- Keeps the user informed about UNC sports and events.
- Provides game schedule information (e.g., men's team schedule).
- Consolidates game-related information in one place.

### Cons

- The app crashes or won’t open at launch (frequent launch failures).
- Live audio streams freeze, time out, or crash, sometimes redirecting to a non-loading website.
- Login/account access problems (cannot log in, password reset fails, or create account issues).
- Redesign/updates degrade usability (harder to navigate; intrusive large 'feature game' block).
- Streaming audio causes the device to overheat and drain battery.
