Dimitry

They spam with optional emails which you can’t unsubscribe from. I’ve got 67 emails from their app just in 1 week. Their support said they can’t do anything about it.

Free is great, pro even better

We use this for our ice hockey club and it works great. We organize weekly skates and events and find it to be a highly integral part of what we do and can do. John is very responsive from the team.

Great idea but glitchy

The app itself is a great idea but I (or my team) never receive notifications. For that reason, I give it a low rating. Switching to a different app for my ball team.

Response from developer

Hi Michy. So sorry to hear you’re having issues. Did you reach out to support?

Except team software

Excellent team software we have been using this for two years and it’s been pretty much Seamless I would suggest that to anyone. Great tool for organization very low maintenance. Constant updates well done team BenchApp five stars for me. You’re my MVP for the season.

No Tennis

Should be a no brainer and easy add since pickleball is already there

Response from developer

Well he adding tennis very soon! We’d love to hear how we can make the app better for tennis.

Update fail

Did the update and now can’t get back in

Response from developer

Hi there. Can you email us at help@benchapp.com? The new updates don’t affect your log in so there must be another issue!

Bench App quick feedback

When a game is full, waitlist players should have priority, but right now:
• they don’t get notified when spots open
• they often can’t join even if they’re space.
• spare invites, let other players jump ahead of them.
This makes it unfair for the people who signed up first.

Simple fix:
• notify waitlist when a spot opens.
• let them claim spots first
(first come, first serve served)
• don’t allow spare invites to override the waitlist.
This would make things way more fair and reduce manual work for organizers.

Constant Spam

I have turned off all notifications in all settings, including per-team settings, but your app still sends me many emails about “hey set attendance for a game”.

Please Remove ride request. One star until this happens.

I keep getting ppl asking for rides to games im not even attending. No way to turn off the notification. I never want to be asked for a ride this way and for games or teams im not even attending.

Bare Bones

This app does the bare bones for team game scheduling, but why does it need to cost $9/month just to get a push notification to my phone on a game day? Silly.

Great product

Very easy to use, very helpful

Health Check

Please stop with the stupid health check

Glitches

So many glitches especially when trying to enter scores after games constantly have to log out an in of the app

Response from developer

Hi there. We are rebuilding the scorekeeper as we speak! We’d love to have you on board to test it. Please email us at help@benchapp.com

Notifications

I haven’t received updates since the big overhaul sometime during the summer. All of my notification settings are set to receive notifications for this app. I was hoping this last update would finally help resolve the issue.

Very impressed

It seems like they have thought of everything. It’s also very fast, easy to navigate. Overall a great app

Chatt field

Please allow field to scroll as text is added. Field is already half covered by phone’s keyboard

Handy app

Helps to easily manage roster. Easily tracks payments and collection.

Wish there was a way to review payments collected in different ways. Eg how much cash vs etransfer.

Would also like to see some kind of better demo or instruction on features

Not user friendly

No easy way to add both parents to the app. Confusing to get around in for all but basic things. Way too many adverts.

UPDATES TOO OFTEN

I love this app, but my god! It has new updates every few days it seems. It’s kind of annoying.

Great App!

Makes my life as a coach much easier!
