### 2/5 — Mid

*2022-06-23*

No way to sort to inside or outside courts… also none of the courts in my area had any reviews. Also put courts where you wouldn’t be able to access. At the end of the day it’s mid.

### 1/5 — Disgraceful app

*2016-08-23, version 1.0.1*

It hasn't been updated in 6 years, you can't add courts, the map won't even load...

### 1/5 — Great concept, terrible app!!

*2016-05-18, version 1.0.1*

Every time I use the app, it always freezes. The only thing that works properly is the geolocalisation. But this is useless if you can't zoom on the map to be closer...Not worth it!!

### 1/5 — Crashes all the time.

*2016-04-11, version 1.0.1*

Shows the courts but crashes all the time. No pic. Had high expectations but very disappointed.

### 1/5 — Doesn't work , do not buy it

*2016-02-24, version 1.0.1*

...

### 1/5 — Can i get a refund please?

*2015-09-29, version 1.0.1*

This app isnt updated anymore and crashes when trying to add courts. Its quite old and unused. Dont buy

### 1/5 — Don't

*2015-08-07, version 1.0.1*

Useless, dont reply, app needs updating for iPhone 6 and to actually include the courts of the world.

### 1/5 — Only $1, but not even worth that!

*2015-06-23*

App is so slow it won't even work 90% of the time. Use the website on your phone. The app isn't worth the time, let alone the money.

### 1/5 — SCAM

*2015-04-22*

Pretty sure this app is a scam. Do not download.

### 1/5 — Frozen... Not just a movie by Disney

*2015-03-01, version 1.0.1*

Doesn't work at all. 100% Frozen. Don't buy.

### 1/5 — Needs updates

*2013-11-07, version 1.0.1*

Pls update this app still crashes when adding courts. iOS 7 support needed as well!

### 1/5 — Horrible

*2013-06-22*

DONT BUYYYYYYYY WARNING

### 2/5 — Crazy slow, "makes me wonder"

*2013-06-02*

Had better luck with non-basketball related map search apps. This worked 1/5 times I tried to use it. Returned strikingly few parks which makes me wonder if they're depending on an apparently small user base for data. 

Very little comments, tips, content makes me wonder what's the point.

### 1/5 — Cant even register

*2026-07-04, version 1.8*

Cant click on countries when registering, and courts often dont show up on starting the app

### 1/5 — non functional abandoned app

*2026-03-27*

it won’t let you register and all of the support options get bounced or just don’t work. this is yet another dead zombie app

### 1/5 — Annoying

*2020-10-16, version 1.4*

Tried to put up a photo and review of local court to ‘do my bit ‘ for the hoop community and the tech just doesn’t work!! ‘Connection lost’ and ‘error’ messages randomly occurring when everything else on the phone is working fine! I’ll never get those 35 minutes back!!

### 1/5 — Update

*2017-03-22*

The compatibility needs to be upgraded for later iphones

### 1/5 — Needs updating!!

*2017-03-14, version 1.0.1*

Would be brilliant if it worked. Sadly has not been updated for a long time. Do not download.

### 1/5 — Doesn't work for me

*2016-12-26*

Freezes as soon as it zooms in on my location on my iPhone 7+.

### 1/5 — Needs a big update

*2016-12-11*

This app is old and doesn't even work on my device it needs an update. It's a shame because I need an app like this one.

### 1/5 — Used to be great, now it doesn't work

*2016-11-18, version 1.0.1*

I'm always on the road for work. I like to put up shots when I'm free, this app used to be the best when I was in a unfamiliar area. Now it doesn't even work... What a shame

### 1/5 — This app is dead...

*2016-09-21, version 1.0.1*

Doesn't load

### 1/5 — Doesn't work

### 5/5 — This app is so underrated

*2021-11-14, version 1.6*

I don’t have a driveway and my local basketball court has a high hoop so I tried to find other basketball courts in England but there were no videos.
This app shows me all of the basketball courts in my area
5 stars

### 5/5 — Basketball court

*2020-11-10*

Really good app to find a court where you are

### 5/5 — Most Comprehensive Basketball Court App

*2020-09-03*

Easy to find courts near me!  Also used it on vacation.  Thanks for this!

### 5/5 — Fantastic App

*2013-05-16, version 1.0.1*

A must have for all keen basketballers. If you need to practice your shooting while on vacation this is the app you need. I travelled across five countries in Europe and was able to find quite a few courts to practice it. Take in some sightseeing along the way to the courts. Hi 5 for the developers!

### 5/5 — Simply Incredible!

*2011-02-21*

This is so cool! I live in an area of West Texas where people only care about two things, Football, and Baseball...
Needless to say we have a ton of parks but (You guessed it) NO Basketball courts (Or So I thought). I bought this app and I am so pleased with it. I was not only able to find courts in my town that I didn't know existed. I was a able to get directions to the park Directly with-in the App. Simply Incredible. Very Well Worth 99 cents.

### 4/5 — Don’t believe the negative reviews

*2020-05-23, version 1.1*

Most negative reviews of this app are years old and no longer relevant to the current version which works fine (tested in the UK). 

Love that you can leave comments and reviews on each court and add any new ones that you may find that aren’t currently listed.

A very useful app!

### 4/5 — Works/Great idea/App kind of slow

*2012-04-18*

App helps you locate basketball courts you didn't know were there. Might not list courts you ARE aware but help other users out and add them to the database. 

Only complaint - on a 4S, but app has a tendency to hang or be occasionally slow. Wish it worked faster. It might be a server thing.

### 4/5 — Buy this app if baller

*2012-03-24*

Wherever i am i just pull this app if im looking for a nice pickup game! Its amazing such a good app and although some courts arent labeled, you should label them yourself

### 3/5 — Great App A Must If You Ball

*2014-02-07*

Great app a bit slow. Found some great courts in Texas. App is a bit slow not iOS 7 ready. App restarts every time you swap apps. Won't let me update and post new pics or rate courts. Great app though when you need a spot to ball. Thanks Guys!!

### 3/5 — ok. but glitchy

*2013-05-28, version 1.0.1*

great app. but no way to contact customer service. tried adding a court and the app crashes, reported bug and no one got back to me.the problem hasnt been fixed. thought getting a refund from apple, but the court finder feature is decent. no contact for support + app crashes + zero response makes me think the company and app could do a bit better
