Moreover Sports App – iPhone App Review

Moreover Sport News (Free)

Version – 1.1

REVIEW – “Let the world of sports come to you!”

The App Store has changed so much since it began that it makes my head hurt just thinking of all the popular apps  that have been released!  While there have been several sports apps released, most of them are not nearly as simple as Moreover Sports and it’s free  as well!  If you have been searching for an iPhone app just to keep up on the latest sports news then you should definitely take a look at this one!

While it may take a while to describe the interface of most apps this one is probably one of the most simple that I have reviewed so far!  When you open up the app you will be greeted by a list of all the available categories that you can find news stories for.  On this screen you will not only see a little icon and abrief description of what that option in the menu does.

Touching any of the sports that are listed on the main screen will bring up a list of the newest stories for that particular category.  The categories listed range from football and basketball  all the way down to Cricket and Rugby!  It is also possible to search all of the currently available stories by touching the magnifying glass in the upper right corner of the screen and typing its name.there!

Once you’ve selected your category, all of the stories inside of it are shown in a list format.  You’ll notice that beneath each item the app also lists the source that the story comes from!  This is because this app is not really a source of information but rather an aggregator.  You’ll see all kinds of great sources such as ESPN and the USA Today!

While this app could not be easier to use than it is, its feature set is fairly limited.  There are no score trackers of any kind, and no way to view standings and/or game results either.  With that said, if you are the kind of person that just likes to keep up on the latest highlights and news stories this could be exactly what you are looking for.  Another thing I noticed is that while there are a lot of categories to choose from the developers really need to divide them up a little more somehow.  A good example of where this is needed is in the Basketball and Football sections.  They both need to be divided into at least two sections; College and Pro!

In summary, this app is probably not for everyone, but for the casual fan that likes to keep up on sports news it is definitely a winner.  There is no confusing interface to navigate around and it makes it extremely easy to find the latest breaking news stories!  So if you’ve been waiting for an app like this that is no frills and allows you to keep up on sports without wasting a lot of time, then I would encourage you to download this free app today!
