This app is amazing. If you can’t afford to do a paid sub you still get all the pre and post race articles, and race results. It’s perfect for a quick view at how practice went cuz none has time to watch 2hrs of practice on a Friday.On the app there is something called “spoiler mode” ITS AMAZING! It basically blocks race results for those of us who live where the race takes place at like 2am and we can’t watch live. It asks if you want to start the race from the beginning. It’s an ingenious idea and I send all the praise to whoever’s idea it was. However… when you click it, for a split second while bringing up the live timing it will show you the top 3 finishes. I have made a habit of hitting “play from beginning” and averting my eyes, lol. Quick fix no big deal. The main problem with the app is that if you tune in half way through the race there is not a “play for beginning” and the app will play the race on whatever lap it’s on, will not let you go to past laps, (when you start is as far back as you can go) and spoil the race for you without hesitation. So your options are watch live or wait until it’s over to tune in. But outside of that it’s a good app. Still 5 stars cuz the data available during a race is out of this world!

I am deeply disappointed with F1’s change in policy regarding subscriptions. I have long been subscribing to F1 and it was important to me as I traveled and worked abroad in many countries, to include locations and conflict countries where the races were not acceptable on tv. In some cases they were shown but the announcers were speaking in Arabic, which I could not understand. My solution in those cases was to use F1 streaming to enjoy the race despite the 30 seconds difference between the tv and the audio streaming. I have done this for many years and have never misused your service in any way, shape or manner. Unfortunately F1 changed their policy for what I believe are unfounded reasons and I can no longer subscribe to F1 while residing and working in developing or war torn countries. Whether I remain a committed fan of F1 is in doubt since F1 apparently views me with suspicion of abusing my subscription. Is it possible for F1 to change their perception of a long time F1 fan to something less suspect?

I’ve tuned in to watch the beautiful data screens I’ve loved for a long time and they are gone!! They have updated the app and made massive changes. Taken away the track view showing a beautiful overall look at driver locations and substituted this amateurish screen with dots!! Took away a very detailed screen giving the viewer (us) all the data for all drivers on same screen. I could look at this view and know gaps, sector times and more all on one screen along with the track view. I was fully informed with increasing or closing gaps of all driver with a single screen, not to mention 4 other screens showing any other support information you wanted.....all gone!! They now have these simple screens. Nothing is combined...if you’re looking for anything combined like sector times and gaps....forget it...not there....you have no single way of telling who’s gaining on who! My ability to see what I want to see data wise has been taken away. I have to swap back and forth between several screens to get the same combined data you use to have last week!! You’re new version of the app is foe beginners.

The previous version needed a little work, but generally gave you Key information on one screen during the race and qualifying: lap times, sector times, and during the race, gap to the lead, interval between drivers and the ability to turn on driver radio transmissions. The new app shows lap time, gap to lead and interval between drivers on one screen but only six max drivers at a time. With the previous app, I could see the entire field on my tablet. I have to go to a 2nd screen to see sector times (really annoying during qualy) and still can only see the top six, missing drivers who have just gone out on track and are setting competitive early sectors. Graphics and color choices are also poor and inferior tot he previous version. I also found that my “no spoiler “ alert had been reset, so when I tried signing on the app with my phone during the race I the hopes of avoiding screen switching with my tablet, I was shown the Singapore (current race) results totally ruining my enjoyment of that race. Terrible update. This should have gone to a Beta release with a representative sample of fans! I will cancel my subscription if this is not fixed- actually worse than just following broadcast. - F1 fan for over 25 years

I like using the app notifications to remind me when the race is, because in my busy life, I sometimes need that. However, if you turn on notifications, they do more than just remind you that practice, qualifying, or the race is about to begin, they also send notifications when the results are posted. Usually, they are cryptic “Come see who came out on top!” type notifications, but not this weekend. Now, as a Ferrari fan, I didn’t mind the results telling me how Ferrari was fairing in practice, as I knew I probably wasn’t going to go back and watch those—I have a busy life. However, the spoilers remained through Qualifying and the race. As someone with a F1 TV subscription so I can watch the race either when it airs, or after it ends (due to other more important engagements on Sunday’s that sometimes prevent me from watching live) I was quite peeved that the notification I received told me the race results. The banner notification should let me know that results are posted, so if I want to spoil the race for myself, I can, but not give me no option about it. After being very good for the entirety of the race and not opening timing and scoring, so I could go home and enjoy the race later, the F1 app ruined it for me. I’m deleting the app. It’s not worth it to me, and I suggest others do the same, or never download it in the first place.

This used to be the go to app for F1 info.Now it is incredibly annoying with alerts and unnecessary info dropping and ringing the phone all day long. They are using the sound alert of the microphones when they are activated. It used to mean that the cars were ON and pilots were ready, and you could grab your phone for either practice or race. Now they’re using the same sound for every unnecessary message or analysis from people that never raced one year or at all. So it killed the vibe because you don’t know what it is about or what is happening. Just building synthetic hype. It seems like they want to enforce on how they think you should watch the race, because the comments and messages dropping all day long sometimes it’s so unnecessary and it’s pure drama nothing serious that needs to be alerted. But most of all you get a lot of information here, just make sure you turn OFF the notification sound.

I’ve been an F1 fan for years, and this app has been a game-changer for me. The interface is sleek and user-friendly, making navigation a breeze. The live race updates are incredibly fast, ensuring I’m always in the loop. What I appreciate most is the detailed analysis provided post-race, which includes lap-by-lap breakdowns and driver performance metrics.The video highlights are another standout feature. They are crisp, and the slow-motion replays really capture the essence of each race. The app also includes exclusive interviews with drivers and team principals, giving insights that are not available elsewhere.Additionally, the push notifications are timely and relevant, keeping me updated with the latest news, race schedules, and results. The integration of the race calendar with my device’s calendar is a thoughtful touch, ensuring I never miss a race.However, there’s room for improvement. The app occasionally experiences minor glitches, especially during live streaming. Also, more interactive features, like virtual track walks or fan polls, would enhance the overall experience.In summary, for any F1 enthusiast looking to stay connected with the sport, this app is a must-have. It’s a seamless blend of technology and passion, bringing the thrill of F1 racing right to your smartphone.

The new app is just awful. It has a lot of updates and I tried to give it a couple weeks to get used to, but even after getting used to it, it’s just bad. It’s a poor attempt at being some social media style app, which it isn’t and shouldn’t be. It is plastered with ads everywhere. Articles are relegated to the bottom of the app, a couple headlines up top but you can select the “see all articles”. The app is very cluttered, moments take up half a page and the F1 movie ads/articles/moments/etc. are everywhere. This app is catered toward people with 8 second attention spans who are averse to reading apparently. Heaven forbid we want to read an article. Oh and when you do scroll all the way to the bottom to get to the articles, they too are filled with ads… The F1 app is basically a downloadable billboard with poorly implemented social media layouts and geared towards bored people who may or may not actually care about F1, just want 8 second videos and not towards anyone who actually is interested in F1.

I know the fantasy portion of this app isn’t its complete use, but it’s so incredibly hard and annoying to use with a handful of glitches for a business of this magnitude I would think it would receive some attention. The fact that you have to dig through the app to find the fantasy section is difficult enough, but then that you have to login every time you hit the back button seems overly secure for an app that has no financial features. You can’t change your team name because of a glitch the blocks the view of the type box. It’s slow beyond belief, the leader boards don’t update usually for more than 5 hours after a race and it’s overly clumsy to just move about the fantasy section. It’s actually a discussion every Sunday for the years we gotten together to watch F1… it’s amazing to all of that it can be this bad. It takes away from the whole experience just a little. I’ll speak for all us that we hope some effort and attention can be put into these features of the app for future use!

The live (or delayed) timing, tire, etc info is awesome. I usually run this app on my iPad while watching the race. Great interface, great data, great extra radio audio that you don’t get on the broadcast. Two requests to the developers: 1. The extra audio commentary is really cool. It would be more helpful if it showed the team and driver’s name longer when starting a transmission. By the time I look down the display usually has already cycled to the temperature. Just show that driver’s name until the clip is over. 2. Add some method to synchronize timing to a broadcast. The live stream is about a minute behind so I have to pause and estimate when to start manually. Not ideal. Not sure how to do this from a programming point of view, but maybe some audio recognition like Shazam? There has to be a simpler method though...
