Amazing

This is the best bracket data for historical records and I love it just two side notes: Long Beach state is not know as “49ers” anymore as they are “Beach” also I don’t think this review sent but It’d be a cool feature to add to each team or itleast the big team their top rival.

We appreciate the excellent review! With remorse we must point out you are incorrect. The two colleges you mention have always been included in the app as Northwestern State and Southeastern Louisiana. We spell out the full name of schools to avoid ambiguity. SLU is a perfect example; Saint Louis also goes by SLU. If you can’t find a particular team, the best approach is to use the search bar at the top of the Teams page; entering a partial name or team nickname should help you find what you need. Thanks for using Bracket Master.

Great

This app satisfies all my needs I love it and use it everyday

Love

Love this.

I would like the same for NCAA Football, NFL Football, and MLB. Make MLB your last priority as MLB is messed up with no salary cap!

Update 4/2/26… Can we pay please to get rid of the ads? How about $3 lifetime.

Actually do not ever do
MLB. I will never go to or watch an MLB game again!

4 stars. Would be 5 if it wasn’t for this thing

I love this app. It’s great for simulating, picking, and looking at historical data. However. This is a 4 star because of the ads. I can’t sim 4 brackets without it giving me an ad. If you can fix this it would be an easy 5 stars

Sorry, we hate ads too, but as it is, the app makes laughably little money. I’ll just point out that the longer your app session, the fewer ads you’ll be served over time. We debate removing the ads and making this a paid or subscription app in the future. You might consider supporting the development directly by visiting the Developer Website “About Scrutinous” page. Thanks for using and continuing to back Bracket Master.

Great App

This app is honestly so good for finding historical team data for march madness. Being able to see every teams history in the tournament, how many times they’ve made it, and historical brackets is so nice.

Awesome app

Awesome app it’s really good to use for college basketball but you should make a way to do a custom bracket.

I will keep this app forever

When I first got this app I loved making brackets immediately and I never had any app better than this before.

Next level

I give you a four stars because it is the best Bracket ever. However, it could definitely be developed making a custom bracket would be awesome If you could do a certain year. Pick any team from that year to put in that would be awesome. I think it to at least make a prototype to at least try it.

Two teams to be added

In south land two teams named NW State and SLU are in south land but not in the game

Good but two suggestions

Ok so I love the game but I have two suggestions the one I like the most is if users could create there own custom bracket with teams of their choice and being able to pick their seed the second is where you can turn off when you get a pick wrong or right, basically you just pick without the green or red showing

Thanks for reaching out and posting this excellent review. It is gratifying you've been with us over the long-term. Stick around - there's plenty more to come!

Makes my phone so hot

I love the metrics and all the information, it’s honestly amazing to have all in one place, but for some reason it makes my phone catch on fire and perform very slow, if there’s any way to fix or improve on that the app would be a 10/10.

We haven’t heard that one before. I would have to guess you are running a bunch of simulations, because that’s the only function that does a lot of calculations. Is this true, and if not, what are you doing? Also please share the model of your device. We will certainly keep an eye on this.

I love this! Just two suggestions

I love this app. I love that you can explore the tourney history, simulate tournaments, and pick brackets. But I have a few suggestions. I think it’d be great if you could have an option to simulate brackets all the way back to 1939. And pick brackets back to that same time. My other suggestion is to have an option to make our own brackets and then simulate them. It’d be great and it’d bring me a lot more joy while on this app. Other than that though. Great game. Thank you for making such an incredible app!

Response from developer

Thanks for the great review. The reason we don't offer simulations of seasons prior to 1985 is that there aren't any advanced statistics available to rate the teams for a meaningful result. However we are seriously looking at supporting the creation of customized tournaments, and will consider the simulation of these user brackets at that time.

👍🏽

Love the app. How often does it update?

Excellent

This app is amazing. Basically Perfect. The only complaint is the speed sometimes is slow like the typing speed and the loading speed is slow, but other than that it’s perfect. I do have a suggestion: it would be cool if they have every conference tournament too.

Thanks for the review. The issues you point out are things we would like to improve. Typing in the various search bars is something we improved in the 1.4.3 release but remains slower than it should be due to software issues beyond our control. Startup time is a bit slow, particularly when launching a new version for the first time because your saved brackets and settings need to be restored. We’ll continue to try to polish these things. We are committed to improving upon perfection! ;-)

Updated Teams for 2024 Tournament

Got this app last year everything about it is amazing , the only thing I would like is a update for the now selected teams for the tournament as some are incorrect

Bracket Master had the official bracket available for download through the settings page before 6PM PDT on Selection Sunday. A full app update with the lastest stats and new favorite teams feature was available from the App Store before 12PM PDT on Monday. We love your enthusiasm and do the best we can do for our fans.

We need a college football

I love this app and I use it all the time but I really want a college football to be added in this game or it could be a different game that you made and made it be bracket masters football and change this one into bracket masters basketball but I love this app but I want a college football.

Add one thing to get to 5 stars

This is amazing and perfect expect I would love to have the ability to change the teams in the bracket in the projected and old brackets to be able to see what if a different team won their league or a team was seeded differently that would be cool otherwise amazing app
