Major Highlights of the Week

Widget Malfunctions
The widget frequently fails to update scores or becomes unresponsive, requiring users to remove and reinstall it multiple times a day. This issue disrupts the user experience, especially for those relying on the widget for quick score updates.
The widget constantly freezes, and I have to delete it and put it back multiple times a day.
Chat Spam
The chat feature is overwhelmed with spam bots, making it difficult for users to engage in meaningful conversations. This issue diminishes the app's community aspect and frustrates users who want to discuss sports.
The chat is filled with spam bots, making it impossible to have a conversation.
Notification Issues
Notifications often fail to direct users to the relevant content, instead opening the last viewed page, which frustrates users trying to access timely information. This inconsistency undermines the app's reliability for real-time updates.
Clicking on a notification takes me to the last thing I looked at, not the new content.
Video Quality Problems
Highlight videos often fail to load properly, displaying in low resolution with poor sound quality, rendering them nearly useless. This technical issue detracts from the app's multimedia offerings.
The videos never load fully and only render in 144p with 8-bit sound quality.
Excessive Ads
The app is inundated with intrusive ads that disrupt the user experience, including delayed banner ads that cause accidental clicks. This aggressive ad strategy frustrates users and detracts from the app's usability.
Ads pop up exactly where I'm about to click, which is very annoying.
Privacy Concerns
Users express concerns about excessive data tracking and privacy issues, with the app accessing numerous websites even when not in use. This raises significant privacy concerns and affects user trust.
The app accesses 50 to 60 websites to gather my info, even when I'm not using it.

I love the app for its quick updates and comprehensive coverage, but the recent update has made it cluttered with unnecessary social media posts in the Matchup section. Please revert to the previous clean format.
