Still no change, awful, use Sporting Life app instead!

Nothing has changed, in fact if anything it seems even less responsive than my last review. I give up! Now I'm using The Sporting Life app, it's at least user friendly and uncomplicated. I would advise you all to do the same, and then maybe the Racing Post might reconsider it's options and reintroduce the old excellent app. If I could I would give the Racing Post app a minus score, as I'm sure most reviewers would.

It's terrible to over thought , not use'r friendly at all ' and not to mention the unwanted 24hr radio consistently popping up on my Samsung phone that you can not seem to get rid of unless you uninstall the App which I might do because its awful.

This new app is a pain to use

This new app is a pain to use. Fussy bordering on complicated. There was nothing wrong with the old app,In fact it was brilliant. Sorry but I’ll be using an alternative app for my racing from now on.

Absolute buch of thieves....yet another disgraceful subscription scam...they make it as difficult as possible to cancel.....why cant you log in to your account and cancel ?....couldn't care less about it's customers. After phoning their Indian customer services to cancel, was pushed and pushed to carry on with subs, offering to go down to £10 instead of £40 they had been charging...said yes if they would backdate it 3 years ! Nowadays It seems that is par for the course how companies treat their customers. Recession/affordability checks hopefully will see the back of these bunch of thieves

The most disappointing app update in…

The most disappointing app update in history, confusing interface, non user friendly, radio constantly cuts out. Whoever signed off on this "improvement" needs sacking. I've deleted it, I simply can't do it 🤬🤬🤬

THE WORST APP EVER MADE

The racing post app update is by far the worst change I ever seen in an app, system, website. Diabolical doesn’t cut it. The interface is so none user friendly, the radio cuts out before a race as it try’s to load the race on video in the app. Constantly says I’m offline. Looking into horses previous runs use to be easy, now you can barely click into them. It’s actually put me off punting ( might be a good thing) the previous app was brilliant, easy to use and helped you do your own research. IF YOU HAVE NOT UPDATED YOUR APP- DONT! I can’t put into words how bad the app is.

New progressive design?

Has anyone from the racing post design team or more importantly anyone who likes a bet and loves horse racing actually used this app in testing? My job involves graphics and design and am more than happy to see progress, but this design has actually gone backwards. I can’t even find important racing results easily. Try to watch live ( which now includes Irish racing - finally) but if you close the live link for any reason ( like to check your horse colours) the live feed won’t work. I feel like I’m only moaning here but there are so many problems with this app to be listed. I don’t see any benefit in this new app that the simply glorious old app could do. The app responds so slowly that you don’t even get a chance to win or loose money on a bet that you would like to place. Not at any point did I agree to update this app - am I not allowed to control what download or update any more? Progress needs to be progressive.

Absolute crap now

Absolute crap now, too focused on trying to make it look nice and now pages have far too information to load fast, is not user friendly anymore and will no longer use the app. Feels like they got horses to design the back office side of things with it

The old app was so easy to use . This new app winds me so much I have to meditate afterwards. Not for me I'd rather give up betting! Actually since this pile of crap my betting dropped about 80% suppose that could ba good thing. BUT I LIKE IT.

Great to awful

Previous version of the app was excellent. New one is atrocious and constantly locks up thereby needing to delete and re-install many times per day. So many people saying the same cannot be wrong!

Total rubbish

Total rubbish, where have the newspaper, r.p ratings etc gone?
Used to love comparing tips and won on more occasions than lost. Why are they not there anymore. Going to uninstall as I'm just so disappointed with it. Even odds checker is better.
