The app's free features are positioned as a single place for game-day information and continuous NFL content. Included in the listing:

The listing clarifies that NFL+ requires a subscription and that terms apply.

# NFL+ Premium: additional features for deeper coverage

NFL+ Premium includes all NFL+ features plus:

These restrictions affect viewers who expect to mirror mobile streams to TVs or other external displays.

# User feedback noted in the listing

The App Store excerpt includes historical user complaints (examples dated to 2019) about Wi‑Fi streaming and TV‑provider sign‑in issues: users reported being returned to the login screen after signing in, or stuck on a loading screen on devices like Roku. Those reviews are presented in the listing and indicate that streaming authentication and device compatibility have been recurring pain points for some users.
