While some users appreciate the app's design and features, the overall consensus is that stability needs significant improvement.

    • “This app is extremely buggy.”
    • “The app is difficult to use, almost impossible. It's buggy and always fails to load, and even if you choose to enable push notifications, they never work or appear at all. One of the worst apps I have ever had to use; please fix it.”
    • “The live stream freezes constantly and drops out even with a full internet connection from my provider.”
  • monetization7 mentions

    • “The in-game purchases are optional and don't impact the overall experience, which is refreshing.”

    • “Fix your product before advertising token drops.”

    • “Cannot easily skip to gameplay.”
    • “And another idea to improve the app: while casting gameplay on TV, could the overhead view of the game be shown on the phone as a companion?”

    • “If you go full screen, your screen will time out and you'll have to open your phone again without a screen rotation workaround. Plus, it will log you out the next time you need to use it, making you just want to uninstall because why even use it unless you are farming points.”
