## What is ChallengeFlag?

Every NFL game has a third team on the field. Challenge Flag Ratings covers that one.

REFEREE CREW INTELLIGENCE
See who is officiating your game before kickoff and what that crew tends to call. Home and away bias, penalties and EPA per game for the referee and the full crew, each official's top calls against the league average, and how this crew has flagged each of the two teams.

LIVE GAMES
Score, clock and quarter for your favorite teams' games, on the lock screen and in the notification shade. On Android 16 it shows as a live chip in the status bar.

EVERY FLAG, RATED
Play-by-play with every penalty in context. Watch the clip, rate the call, and see how the community rated it. High-leverage flags and coach's challenges come to you as alerts.

WIN PROBABILITY
A live win probability graph for every game, plus pregame projections, over/under and the line.

YOUR TEAMS
Pick your favorites and the schedule puts their games first, with projections at a glance. Team pages, standings, injuries and props for every matchup.

ALERTS YOU CHOOSE
Kickoff, score changes, halftime, challenge flags, high-leverage penalties and crew announcements, each one on its own switch.

Built for fans who want to know what the officiating means for their team, before the game and during it.


## Version history (last 5 releases)

### 2.1.5 — 2026-09-19

Game recaps, rebuilt.
• "How it went": a one-line headline on why the game was won, a side-by-side stat table, and the key factors behind the result.
• Offense, defense and special teams cards with two-team sparklines. Tap a unit to see who did what.
• A glossary for every stat abbreviation, pulled out from the right edge of the Recap tab.
• "Plays that decided it" now measures each play's true swing in win probability.
• Renamed the prediction review to "How our predictions panned out".
• Fixed roster cutdown moves showing under Regular Season on the Moves tab.

### 2.1.4 — 2026-09-16

• Live game score on your lock screen for your favorite teams
• Referee crew intelligence on every game with an assigned crew
• Favorites show the projection and line for each game
• Team names in score and halftime alerts
• Fixes: notification taps open the right game, sharing right after launch, sign-in on a new phone

### 2.1.3 — 2026-09-11

New Recap tab on every finished game: the plays that decided it, the penalty ledger, how the pre-game call went and why, and each pre-game milestone against what actually happened. Tap any final on the schedule.
Live score, quarter and clock now stay current through the game.
Pre-game milestone lines are posted for every game of the week.
Kickoff reminders now fire reliably.
ChallengeFlag is now ChallengeFlag: NFL Companion, with the whole week of football in one app: the crew and matchup before kickoff, live call ratings on game day, and what each flag cost in win probability after the whistle.

### 2.1.2 — 2026-08-30

New in this version
 
Crew pages now show each official's review-overturn rate: how often
the calls they make get reversed on replay. Historical record, not a
prediction.
 
Penalties name the player. Number and name, not just the foul.
 
Replay reviews and coach's challenges get their own marker in the play
by play instead of vanishing into the drive.
 
Fixed: kickoff reminders were not firing. They fire now.
 
Fixed: some penalties showed up twice in the game feed.
 
Fixed: games were being marked final before they actually ended, and
pregame showed 0-0 instead of nothing.
 
If ChallengeFlag has settled an argument for you this season, rate a
call and let us know what you think of the app.

### 2.1.1 — 2026-08-24

Version 2.1.1: The Flag Gets Louder

This is the update our name was made for. Every coach's challenge and replay review now gets the spotlight it deserves, right where the action happens.

WHAT'S NEW

Challenge Moments, Live in Play-by-Play
When a coach throws the flag, you'll see it instantly: who's challenging, what's under review, and the second the ruling comes down (upheld or overturned) in a bold, unmistakable banner. No more digging through play text to figure out what just happened.

Know Your Officials
Head to the Refs tab and see exactly how often a crew's calls get overturned on review. Real numbers, pulled straight from the games they've worked, so you walk into kickoff knowing who's behind the whistle.

Cleaner Live Scores
Fixed a bug where upcoming games showed a confusing 0-0 before kickoff. Now you'll see the actual game time until the ball is live, exactly what you'd expect.

Penalty Calls, Fully Named
Every penalty now shows the number and name of the player it was called on, not just the infraction. Know exactly who to blame (or defend).

WHY CHALLENGE FLAG

You already know the feeling: a flag flies, the booth goes quiet, and you're left yelling at the screen with no idea if it'll stick. Challenge Flag ends that.

- YOU make the call. Rate every penalty 1 to 5 and see how your take stacks up against thousands of other fans in real time.
- Know your refs before kickoff. Crew tendencies, penalty rates, and now, review overturn history, all in one place.
- Injury intel before the reports drop. IR and PUP status pulled straight into every team page.
- Every game, projected. Win probability, spread, and total, updated as the game unfolds.
- Real time push alerts. Get pinged the moment a challenge is thrown, a call gets overturned, or your team's game is about to start.

If you've ever thought "that can't be right" while watching a game, this app was built for you. Download free, pick your teams, and start making the calls yourself, because the refs shouldn't be the only ones with an opinion.

Got feedback? We're reading every review. Thanks for making Challenge Flag part of your gameday.
