The login issues have been fixed, but i am still getting push notifications even though i have unsubscribed to all of them. Spoiler alert! And also, when i download a game for offline watching, the download will often just stop once i leave the app and only resume when i re-open it. Also, it takes too long for games to become available for download after they are finished.

Streaming games always freezes my phone (Pixel 7) if I pause the game - and drains my battery super quickly. Not sure if it's a pixel related issue, but I expect the App to work smoothly on a brand new phone, especially for the 15 euro per month I pay for the subscription. So now I only check box scores and the schedule via the App. Watching games on the website on my laptop (which is also notourisly unreliable)
