Useless when its trending only

It only shows Trending in both Scores and Upcoming, unless one of my teams is currently playing a game. Once the game ends, my favorites all disappear and drop into Trending view. All I want is to just see my Favorite teams in both views, not entire leagues and sports I don’t care about.

More Annoying than Anything

Configuring for your favorite teams is a waste of time and effort simply because it doesn’t work. You’d think adding your favortie team would give it priority over literally every other score but it doesn’t. This widget is simply bad. Thankfully I didn’t pay for it otherwise I’d be screaming for a refund.

Home team on top?

I’m pretty sure it’s a well established convention in presenting box scores to list the home team below the visiting team. Apparently, Yahoo Sports notification widget likes to bust convention. I’m seeing home teams on the top. This is an example where I think convention should win out. Please update this widget so the home teams properly appears below the visiting team. Such a fundamental error = 2 stars.

Doesn’t even show my favorite teams

This new version is stuck on Trending and doesn’t even show my selected favorite teams. Please provide the ability to turn off Trending and show ONLY the selected favorites. I also agree with others that the home team should be listed 2nd, on the bottom. Anything else is confusing.

Poor implementation of a good idea.

I don’t care what’s ‘trending’, what I care about is the scores of the teams I’ve selected. Satisfy the individual user and not the hive mind. That’s the recipe for a successful app and successful company. Yahoo is striking out on both counts.

Helpful but expanding/collapsing not working

Good except showing more/less and expanding collapsing with ‘i’ button distorts the text to where it’s unreadable.

I’d rather use my phone

At least put the home team on the bottom.

people complain too much...

ok, so i read a bunch or reviews before i even downloaded this thing. all these people complaining, are the laziest people ive ever met… but i have to click this, but if i didnt then i blah blah blah. so, what were you expecting. number 1, we all know yahoo dont give a F.. shouldnt expect any more, number 2 , theres sports section online, is one of the easiest things to navigate and is actually top notch in my eyes. if your smart enough, you wouldnt have to download an app, when all you should have to do is click one button when that thingy slides up at the bottom….(that cute little toolbar that pops up on this pretty cool as machine known as an imac…or whatever you got…)… anyways, your stuff should pop up right then, if it doesnt, then you really dont care that much about sports to begin with. and, go ahead, “ well i use this on my work computer….” ok, why are you looking at sports scores on working hours… no excuse, it is as advertised. Except, im a little tuned up and thought i could do fantasy football on this app… nope, i was dead wrong…lol. 3…2….1.. here come the internet english majors!

Not an “app” at all

Soooo dissappointed in this. I’ve used Sportacular on my iPhone for several years now and love it. It has everything I want - sports scores, picks tracker, and sortof incorporated/similar fantasy app. I thought I was going to download this and just log in to my account and have everything from my mobile app already set and ready to go. This thing is just stupid tho. Worthless. It’s not even really an app at all. It’s just a little notifications sidebar thing and doesn’t bring over any of the great features of the mobile app. Why?? This should be a full blown on laptop/desktop app with no excuse to not have at least the same features as the mobile version. When I’m sitting in the living room/at a friends/at the bar/etc, I don’t want to look at the sidebar for scores and fantasy info, I want a full windows where I can view lots of data. I’m going looking for something else now and immediately removing this.

Broken

El Capitan broke this app. Does not work. Please fix.

Home teams reversed

Can’t give it any more that one star since it can’t get the basics right (home teams on top, soccer style). Yahoo doesn’t really seem to care since they are pretty much the only option for your Mac. Such an easy fix, but they still refuse.

Flip teams so the road team is on top and home teams are on the bottom

Flip teams so the road team is on top and home teams are on the bottom!!!
