### 4/5 — Good, but…

*2023-01-29, version 2.7.5*

Very good app and very useful for football games of all levels. However, the stats from the game don’t show up for me. Like I said though, still a very useful app.

### 4/5 — Media Mode?

*2022-07-28, version 2.7.5*

I love this app, but I can only score games for one team throughout the season. I would LOVE to have the ability as a media member to choose the schools I want to score for each week because that changes week to week for me. (Specifically if neither of those schools use DS themselves).

### 5/5 — Arena

*2022-05-22, version 2.7.5*

I am curious if this app has applications for a 50 yard field, kickoffs at the goal line, and some of the other unique aspects of the arena game. If so, please let me know!!!

### 5/5 — 5 stars

*2021-10-25, version 2.7.5*

I did a mini league for my neighborhood and this worked FANTASTIC. Because it keeps stats we were able to have awards which was lots of fun. I recommend for anyone who wants a very good stats app.

### 5/5 — Great App

*2021-10-04, version 2.7.5*

I just started using this app to score my son’s HS team. Easy to use and great stat reporting. Awesome customer service.

### 4/5 — Very helpful in many ways

*2020-11-07, version 2.6.2*

Been using this app for a couple seasons for our local HS team.  Our Coach was not used to having instant stats, someone kept them on a legal pad and took a couple days to compile them.  Now, post game, Coach pulls out his phone and can see his numbers.  He’s never had the amount of information he’s now getting at his fingertips.
Our broadcast team is also loving having the info available during the game broadcasts.  I upload stats during breaks and they use a laptop to keep current on numbers during the game.  
The reports also let us easily email box scores to media outlets as soon as the game is final.

**Developer response:** We're glad you like it! 😁

### 3/5 — Stat problems

*2020-10-12, version 2.6.2*

The Stats won’t sync over. What should I do?

**Developer response:** See the "Troubleshooting — Unable to sync" guide at https://www.digitalscout.com/support-apps#sync

### 1/5 — Where are the totals?

*2019-11-19, version 2.6.2*

I spent hours capturing the stats from each play only to find the stats page is all zeros and when I share a highlight it has stats but they are all incomplete. Almost as bad as hudl.

**Developer response:** We're a little confused. The highlight feature was disabled a long time ago. You might be referring to something else? 

The stats are calculated on the server, so you must be connected to the internet for those to sync up. Stats are still saved locally, and will be synchronized automatically when connected. Then stats will show. 

If you have further questions about how to use the app, we'd be glad to help answer them if you send them to us at support@digitalscout.com.

### 3/5 — Needs improvement

*2019-10-21, version 2.6.2*

Works well, can be glitchy (update really necessary) but overall a good app

**Developer response:** Can you be more specific about what is glitchy? What problems are you experiencing? We'd love to hear from you. Send your notes to support@digitalscout.com

### 5/5 — Fantastic, Useful, Helpful

*2017-10-09, version 2.4.0*

I tried earlier to learn a different app to keep my HS football team's stats, but I couldn't get it.  Then I found Digital Scout and was using it in a day.  Very intuitive and reliable and the support has been excellent.  They provided immediate answers to my questions and suggestions.
Here's a direct quote from a person in the media who gets my reports: "This is great, thank you.  I wish all of the football teams we cover were using this."
