Bracketology has changed the way I engage with reality TV in the best way! ### 5/5 — Reality Fantasy Made Easy *2026-02-25, version 1.0.58* I was able to put together a private fantasy league for the Traitors with 11 participants. It was very easy for people to use and create lineups. No more making your own spreadsheets separately to create your own fantasy reality groups, this *free* app does all the work for you. If possible, I’d lower the rating to 4.5 for 2 simple reasons. 1) The point scoring or versions of games aren’t always easy to understand. 2) I wish I had more controls as a group commissioner so I could get weekly tallies of competitors weekly scores (not show contestants but the fantasy members). ### 5/5 — so fun with friends *2026-02-20, version 1.0.58* I love this app! My friends and I create pools for our favorite bravo shows and bachelor and tbh it’s a great way for us to keep in touch as my friends and I are spread out across the country. if you love reality TV definitely download this app!! ### 5/5 — Love it!! *2026-02-20, version 1.0.58* Such a fun way to engage in reality TV & with friends each week! ### 5/5 — Love this app! *2026-02-02, version 1.0.57* They are responsive if something is incorrect and take the guess work out of reality tv brackets! Love using this for Drag Race and plan to use it for other shows like Love Is Blind! ### 4/5 — Definitely could be worse but isn’t *2025-12-11, version 1.0.53* this app is relatively easy to use, especially for what it is. it’s fun, the latest update was a nice upgrade, but it’s a little confusing and sometimes glitchy. I mostly came here to say that there should be a league chat! ### 5/5 — Great app *2025-11-12, version 1.0.52* Have been using since it came out! ### 5/5 — Easy to use and a lot of fun *2025-10-25, version 1.0.51* Bracketology.tv is a really fun and easy app to use — it makes filling out brackets and competing with friends super simple. The design is clean, everything loads fast, and you can quickly see how your picks are doing. It’s a great way to stay engaged during tournaments and adds a fun, competitive vibe without being complicated. ### 2/5 — Updates *2025-10-17, version 1.0.51* Why so I have to update this app almost every time I open it? Every other week, no lie. What is going on? lol ### 5/5 — Great way to start engaged with friends and families *2025-09-29, version 1.0.49* Great way to start engaged with friends and families ### 5/5 — Makes Every Show You Watch Better - A Must Download *2025-09-24, version 1.0.49* If you love reality TV and predicting what happens next, this is the app for you. Compete with friends or the community and make watching reality TV more fun than ever! ### 5/5 — Best App for Reality TV lovers *2025-09-23, version 1.0.49* I absolutely love playing in different leagues with my friends and other reality tv lovers. If you are competitive and are watching DWTS rn you need to play! ### 5/5 — Super fun app to play with friends *2025-09-19, version 1.0.48* This is a great app to play along as I watch reality shows with my daughter. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Update *2026-01-10, version 1.0.55* Telling me to update but there is no update!! ### 1/5 — Update *2026-01-10, version 1.0.55* Can’t update the app ### 1/5 — Don’t Bother *2026-01-07, version 1.0.54* It won’t let me verify my account. Every time I try to allow location access it says “something went wrong.” Can’t even enter any pools because of this. Wouldn’t recommend to anyone. ### 1/5 — Reality TV… NOT Gambling *2025-11-19, version 1.0.52* I have enjoyed the casual reality TV games for several seasons. But now they are pivoting towards becoming a full blown gambling app. I’m receiving push notifications enticing me to gamble, and every time I open the app they are trying to incentivize me to bet real life money on these reality TV shows. Big departure from the original premise… I can not and will not support it!!! ### 1/5 — app never loads. *2025-09-30, version 1.0.49* this app never loads, the servers are constantly down. i have tried to use this app every week for dwts, and have been unsuccessful everytime. it’s pointless to download. ### 1/5 — Saying no Internet connection *2025-09-24, version 1.0.49* This use to be great. I play the Survivor fantasy with my family, but when trying to submit my picks I get an error message saying No Internet Connection. After uninstalling and reinstalling the app I still get the same error message. I have an internet connection the app just refuses to load. Until this issue is fixed my review will stay at 1 star and I will encourage others to review 1 star as well!!! ### 1/5 — Impossible to Use *2025-09-24, version 1.0.49* My friend and I tried to use this to make watching Dancing with the Stars more fun. It took us forever to get the app to allow us to create a league and add each other to it (we eventually had to change the name to something unique and search for it - not user friendly at all) then when we finally did, it did not give us points for our picks. It said we had submitted picks, but we were not given points for them. Super disappointing. Do not waste your time. ### 1/5 — Zero stars *2025-09-17, version 1.0.48* App doesn’t work and won’t even load when I try to log in ### 1/5 — Can’t even sign up *2025-09-16, version 1.0.48* Tried signing up with Apple login and with just my email. Pressing continue does nothing. How am I supposed to enjoy Dancing with the Stars if I don’t fill out my bracket??? Sad ### 1/5 — Had been loading for 20 minutes…. *2025-09-16, version 1.0.48* really freaking annoying ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Such a fun and cool idea! *2026-08-18, version 1.0.60* If you love reality TV and you love reality sports look no further because this app is the perfect intersection. It’s easy to use and incredibly fun! Can’t wait for dancing with the stars! ### 5/5 — Reality Fantasy *2026-08-18, version 1.0.60* It’s been so fun having a fantasy league with friends for all of our favorite reality shows! Survivor and dancing with the stars are our favorite leagues to participate in! ### 5/5 — Stoked! *2026-08-12, version 1.0.60* Excited to play dwts this season!! ### 5/5 — Great! *2026-08-12, version 1.0.60* Fun competitions! ### 5/5 — This app is awesome!!! *2026-08-12, version 1.0.60* I signed up for dancing with the stars (the next pro!) and using this app has been so fun. It’s a great way to connect with my friends and makes watching each week more fun. ### 5/5 — Love playing survivor with my friends *2026-08-12, version 1.0.60* This is such a great app - makes it easy for me to challenge my friends in a survivor pool. Can’t wait for the next season to start! ### 5/5 — Finally!!! *2026-08-12, version 1.0.60* I used this for Survivor and it was so much fun. So excited to use this for Dancing with the stars where my friends and I can have brackets. The app itself is super smooth and I really like it! ### 5/5 — Such a fun app *2026-08-12, version 1.0.60* Love the concept and user experience ### 5/5 — Reality TV Is Better With Bracketology *2026-08-06, version 1.0.60* Bracketology has completely changed how we watch reality TV. Instead of just yelling our predictions at the screen, we can finally show our skills with our friends that we actually (kind of) know what we are talking about. Creating a league is easy, making picks is fun, and the automatic scoring means nobody has to maintain a chaotic spreadsheet every week. It adds the perfect amount of competition, trash talk, and bragging rights to every episode. If you love shows like Survivor, The Bachelor, Big Brother, or The Challenge, you need this app. ### 5/5 — Even more fun with reality TV! *2026-07-30, version 1.0.60* Started with one show and now following multiple shows, picking teams, rooting for contestants and checking my status on the leaderboards! I’ve always enjoyed reality TV but Bracketology makes it even more fun! --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
