The app suffers from significant stability issues, including frequent bugs that cause users to be signed out when the app is minimized, requiring repeated logins and account creation to save progress. Additionally, users report frequent freezing and login problems, leading many to consider uninstalling the app in favor of alternatives.
- “Buggy, every time you leave the app (not even close it out, just leave it in the background) it signs you out, and you must sign in and find your bracket. You must make an account or your bracket will not save. I'd give another bracket app a try; once I finish my current project, it's getting uninstalled.”
