Bethnal Yellow and Green 1,558 Posted August 8, 2017 There was a fault with the App apparently. The club have recommend people delete it and reinstall. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Orly 277 Posted August 8, 2017 Not that I''d EVER consider circumventing the rules by using a VPN or anything to access the full match stream, but has anyone heard of any success stories of getting it working in the UK? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Splendid Rush 2 Posted August 8, 2017 I seem to be locked out of my iFollow account as it says I''m getting my password wrong, but I''ve only ever used a couple of passwords on the site and they aren''t working. The ''forgot password'' function isn''t working either so i''m stuck.Anyone else having issues?Or seeing that I can''t pay to listen, anyone know of a free link anywhere?

T 190 Posted August 8, 2017 I think you mean subscriber failure. The Fulham game was clearly linked and listed as one of the games that would not be shown due to rights restrictions. It is very clear if you read. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

westcoastcanary 173 Posted August 8, 2017 @kick it offThanks for the tip about where the link is. Hardly intuitive, as you say. But I''ve still had to switch from Safari to Chrome to get it to work; seems to be a problem with the Safari browser. Anybody got it working on Safari?

T 190 Posted August 8, 2017 Not logical but minor layout problem. App good. Big plus to be able to get good stream. Overall impressed so far. Wish there was something similar for rugby and cricket. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

T 190 Posted August 8, 2017 It''s tough in the first world. The match can be found under shock horror matches. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
westcoastcanary 173 Posted August 9, 2017 [quote user="T"]It''s tough in the first world. The match can be found under shock horror matches.[/quote] There''s nothing obvious about looking under "Matches" as opposed to "iFollow" for a link to the live coverage. The iFollow drop down features links to Match Highlights and Latest Videos and Features (including extra content for iFollow subscribers, such as Extended Highlights). You can also access that content via the Matches drop down, but you have to look under Results to do so, as opposed to Fixtures for the live coverage. Interface design is supposed to provide an intuitive, easy to use experience, not a problem solving, treasure hunt-style challenge. There is absolutely no reason why there shouldn''t be a Live Coverage Now link on the iFollow drop down, which is where most of us subscribers would expect it.

T 190 Posted August 9, 2017 I agree it is not immediately obvious and could be better but it takes a few seconds to find under matches. I also have to explore the options with any new software./app Bigger picture it is good and an improvement over previous, It just surprises me sometimes what people get excited about.

westcoastcanary 173 Posted August 9, 2017 I agree to an extent about "the bigger picture", but the reality is that the EFL and club are only inching their way towards decent provision of online services. Dog-like gratitude for any crumbs allowed to fall from the table is not what this should be about. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bethnal Yellow and Green 1,558 Posted August 9, 2017 I note that the full Fulham v Norwich match is available to watch on the app - hopefully all the games will be available to watch in their entirety this season. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
T 190 Posted August 9, 2017 I guess it is whether your glass is 99% full or 1% empty. I can now watch decent streams of most games for my home club team at home or travelling around the world which was not available peviously and is not on offer for international cricket and rugby. That it took a few moments to figure out new software first time I used it is normal for any software and nothing given what was on offer until relatively recently. The whole media world is undergoing a revolution as it works out who and how it makes money with rapdily changing technology and business models. The technology is there but the question is can they make money out of it. I understand that all EPL games will be replayed in full. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
