### 1/5 — pay

*2026-08-23*

it was good but after making 1 bracket i need to pay

### 1/5 — This app sucks now

*2026-08-18*

I used to like this app but now I need to PAY for a Bracket!

### 1/5 — Works great, for the single bracket it let me make.

*2026-08-14*

Having the seriously pay to make more than one bracket at a time is a load of rubbish, save the hassle, don’t waste your money. I’m sure there are plenty of alternatives. I hate to see stuff like this…

### 3/5 — New Update - not functional

*2026-08-10*

Would love to be educated on if I’m using the current version of the app wrong. 

In round robin with 2 members per team, I can only see 1 of the team members. I have to manually hold the name to see the matchup - this seems like a design oversight. Please update.

If updated, I’ll revise review to 5 stars, as it’s been great up to this point.

### 4/5 — More teams please!

*2026-08-10*

My and my friends use this app to create huge bracket that usually max out the amount of teams we request to move up the amount of teams to 256 (the normal max doubled) so we can better use this app in our big tournaments!

### 1/5 — ごみ

*2026-08-03*

ランダムにしてないのにランダムになる

### 3/5 — Pro?

*2026-07-31, version 17*

Im excited to be able to get back on. I like rosters. But the only way I can use them is the pro version? Why?

### 1/5 — This sucks

*2026-07-25, version 14*

It lets you do one bracket and then it makes you pay

### 5/5 — What a convenient bracket maker

*2026-07-20, version 11*

Love how easy it is to use. Great for backyard games!

### 1/5 — Bracket

*2026-07-19, version 11*

App will not open after I paid the 19.99 for life access. I was embarrassed as I was hosting a tournament and it blacked out and closed after I clicked create bracket. Not worth paying for or using

## Version history (last 5 releases)

### 18 — 2026-08-02

Save and share your tournaments — and a bracket that's much easier to read.

• Export a tournament as a file you can keep, email, or AirDrop. Whoever opens it gets the whole bracket, results and all.
• Back up everything at once from More › Export Brackets.
• Share any tournament type as a PDF — stays sharp at any zoom.
• Bigger, clearer team boxes with more room for long names, and seed numbers that line up properly.
• Team names can now be up to 30 characters.
• Round robins can run up to 24 rounds, and now show a points column.
• Standings show long names in full, ranked by position.
• Sharing and exporting are about twice as fast.

Note: team photos stay on your own devices, so a bracket opened on someone else's phone shows names without pictures.

### 17 — 2026-07-30

Bracket Builder now speaks your language.

The whole app is available in French, German, Spanish and Portuguese — every screen, every button, every standings table. Team and player names you already typed stay exactly as you left them.

If something reads wrong in your language, tap Suggest and tell me. I'd rather fix it than guess.

### 16 — 2026-07-28

Thanks for sharing feedback, here is what's new:

Standings, goal difference, and a clearer read on every tournament.

STANDINGS FOR EVERY BRACKET
Wins, losses and goal difference in one table — no more counting wins
across the bracket by eye. Open Standings from the toolbar of any single
or double elimination bracket.

GOALS FOR, AGAINST AND PLUS-MINUS
Track goals scored and goals allowed for each team, with a plus-minus
column, in round robin and elimination alike. They appear as soon as you
enter your first score.

BETTER ROUND-ROBIN RANKINGS
Level teams are now separated on goal difference before falling back to
the older tiebreakers.

GAME AND SEED NUMBERS
Label every match — G1, G2… across the bracket and L1, L2… in the losers
bracket — and show each team's starting seed. Both are optional, under
More › Bracket Display.

ICLOUD STORAGE WARNINGS
If your iCloud storage is full, the app now tells you rather than quietly
failing to sync. Your tournaments stay safe on your device either way.

WHAT'S NEW, IN THE APP
A record of everything that's changed now lives under More, so you can
see what's been added since you last looked. The Settings tab is now
called More.

Bracket Builder is built and supported by one person. If there's
something you need, tap Suggest and tell me — a lot of the above started
as someone's suggestion.

### 15 — 2026-07-25

Import your saved brackets
Have bracket files saved from a backup, or lost your brackets after reinstalling? You can now bring them back. Tap ••• on the Brackets screen and choose Import Brackets — or find it in Settings under Backup & Restore.

You'll see exactly what each file contains before anything is added, and brackets made with much older versions of the app are supported.

Also in this update:
- Fixed a rare crash where a damaged bracket file could stop the app from opening.

### 14 — 2026-07-24

NEW: Group Stage → Knockout tournaments — World Cup style!
- Create 2–16 groups; the top 1 or 2 from each automatically advance into a knockout bracket, through to the final and an optional third-place match
- Soccer-style group standings: points, goal difference, and head-to-head tiebreakers from your entered scores
- Share your bracket as a crisp PDF (perfect for WhatsApp) or as an image
- Plus: faster, smoother bracket screens across the whole app

NEW: Rosters
- Create rosters and use them in brackets
- You can know add images to teams and players
