Eurovision Song Contest Reviews

Edit: EurovisionSongContest now comes with iPad support, which takes care of my main complaint. The article text is kind of tiny on the iPad mini, but I read the articles on the Eurovision site, so that's not a deal breaker. It's not much more than a news feed right now, but now I'm interested to see what EurovisionSongContest can do during the show. (Increased rating to five stars because I said I would, and I appreciate them making this available to non-European fans.)

I would have given this five stars just because they made it available for Eurovision fans worldwide, but the fact that EurovisionSongContest is not really meant for iPad is disappointing. I don't know whether I'll even use this for the show, and not just because I'm in a country where I can't vote.

Wrote a review in 2016 (below), still holds true!!! Please, if you're going to try to do anything with us devout Eurovision fans in the USA, please update EurovisionSongContest !!

I'm an American that faithfully watches Eurovision and was so excited that an app was available to help me keep on top of the news. However, we are a month away from the contest and the contestant section of EurovisionSongContest is still populated with last years winners. This is why only two stars, the information is all old, the news section is a month old.

I love EurovisionSongContest, and was surprised I am not able to view any of the videos or check out the recaps of last years contest! I live in California and I saw the whole show on tv which is why I downloaded EurovisionSongContest ! I hope they fix it soon! Out side of that, I love it :-) but please fix it👍🏼

I live in the USA but I'm in love with Eurovision. Last night I wanted to watch the performance live, but it wouldn't let me. It said something like the uploaded didn't make it available. I hope that will be fixed, I'd love to see it happen

Great app! It keeps me up-to-date with everything concerning Eurovision, ie pictures, videos, articles, interviews. EurovisionSongContest even has a countdown clock for the upcoming tv events. I check it everyday. Definitely worth a download!!

It's kind of useless in the states since A) the broadcast can only be seen on Logo TV in the US and not any Eurovision live streams (I get this is a licensing issue for North America), and B) The US cannot vote in the competition.

We can't buy songs in the states. We can't watch anything. Europe makes some stellar songs but I can't throw my money at you. So, these songs are now products of bit torrent because you can't open up your market a bit more. You guys are missing on US dollars. Let us buy the songs, download the albums!

Every year it doesn’t let me vote, ridiculous, I get a notification that reminds me to vote and I click on it and it brings me to the home page where there is no way of voting except for what colour lights are shown, this is a disappointing, waste of time and every year it’s the same story.

What should I do with my iPad 1?

They finally made an app! I can now always be on top of the news with what's going in one app. Kudos for the contest countdown!

Just tried to vote for a one of singers.
Unfortunately generated by aap smsmessage Like "11 voted via the official app" is wrorg.
Eurovision voting service supports only sms like "11".

It's ridiculous that the official mobile app does not work properly with Eurovision voting system.

At the show it was said that you could vote via that app but EurovisionSongContest only offers you to send an SMS. Which means you CANNOT VOTE VIA EurovisionSongContest. And you cannot watch the show live in EurovisionSongContest. BASICALLY IT'S A SUPPLEMENTARY-INFORMATION APP. Verdict: nothing special.
It only distracts you when your watching the show.

Calendar countdown thinks the first semi-final is a week away when it occurred 3 days ago. No search function. Frustrating!

I tried to vote through EurovisionSongContest and app sent sms which appears have wrong syntax. App sent "08 voted via the official app", but response was negative. So proper syntax is just number(in my case 8), without zero prefix 8 -> 08. So I wasted money on sms.

Not impressed.

- Can't watch the actual show live!
- Already crashed a few times.
- Timeline isn't updating.
- Matchmaker wouldn't load several times.
- Cant see the full schedule.
- Not enough features.
- Kind of boring tbh.

It's a real shame because the actual live show and stage look fantastic.

thanks a lot

I love it! The countdown and the artist profiles are great, but the selfie layers is the best function of EurovisionSongContest ..

EurovisionSongContest has finally updated to 2017! :)

We are currently watching the contest. Song 24 is being sung, the info is still on song #3.

I am unable to enlarge the text of bio and lyrics. The description is misleading. EurovisionSongContest is only advertising for SMS.

Without a doubt, EurovisionSongContest is very great. However, there are a couple flaws to EurovisionSongContest. Under the section named participants, the participants for the 2017 contest haven't been added yet. Also, when I first got EurovisionSongContest , it ran very smoothly. However, after a few days of using it, it started to crash again and again. The contest is approaching fast. Please fix these flaws.
