I agree with you except that I don't think there's a problem with the
accessibility of the NFL Mobile app, and I don't think that's what
people are complaining about here. I don't think sighted people have
access to the radio feed for NFL games either.

I believe that all should be done to make sure that NFL Game Pass is
accessible to blind subscribers. After all, if they are going to take
our money, they should be obligated to provide the same level of service
as they do for other users. Actually, the NFL has engaged in structured
negotiation with attorneys representing the blind, and many improvements
to accessibility have been made. What often happens is that the content
delivery mechanisms such as web sites undergo a kind of overhaul in the
off season, and unfortunately, the developers do not seem to have
accessibility in mind, and the accessibility improvements only come when
people complain. As for a separate audio only package for the blind,
this just isn't going to happen. They're going in the same direction as
the NBA which offers game audio, but only if you buy the whole League
Pass package. One thing that the NBA does do, which is kind of a
compromise, is that they offer a lower priced package called Ala Carte,
which allows you to choose from 1 to 5 teams to follow, and you only
have access to the broadcasts from those teams. I would think that this
would work for most people, unless you do fantasy sports and insist on
having access to all teams.

It’s not Apple that needs to be notified. It’s the NFL that needs to add
the ability to the app.

hello,,
have you notified apple headquarter about this?
since apple had upgraded ios 8.4.1, then that might be some issues.
because the engineers of apps might have not realized of the effects
of the way.

Those apps are absolutely terrible for listening to games, in my
opinion. So until the NFL adds that ability to the app, I’ll listen to
them on the computer, I suppose.
Hopefully it’ll be added soon.

Agreed. I tried to listen to the game last night with one of the free
apps, Pro Football Radio and Live Scores or something, and each
Steelers station I tried either had other programming on, or a
repeating message that said they were sorry but they could not
broadcast the game online due to contract obligations. Though I don't
want to, if truly no other way exists to listen to the games other
than GamePass then I just might bite the bullet and get GamePass. I'm
a huge football fan and would like to listen to games other than from
my home team without jumping through hoops.

And, the NFL is the wealthiest sport in the nation, and the only one
that
doesn’t currently offer a way to listen to live radio broadcasts!
And the
other apps like Pro Football and All Football are hit and miss!

Hi all,
Unfortunately, I have some bad news concerning the NFL mobile app
and game
pass. You cannot listen to live radio broadcasts on the app, only
through
the mac or PC.
I really hope I’m really hoping I’m missing something, but it
doesn’t look
like I am.
