But get so frustrated with Gamecast which has the potential to be great. I can log the first half in Gamecast fine. But the following issues happen every time in the second half: - You can’t set a new formation for the second half. - You can’t set the players for the second half until you start the second half clock. I should be able to set the players starting the second half before I start the clock. This is the most frustrating thing that I would love to see changed. - The game score does not update in the second half. Goals logged seem to track the players involved. But the score of the game does not change. This has to be a bug that should have been fixed long ago. ### 2/5 — Way too convoluted. *2025-09-02, version 10.0* It is a 7 step process just to get to my team’s conference standings. Why wouldn’t that be in my team page or at minimum a link on that page to get to it. It’s a 3 step process just to get to my team’s page. Every other sports app I have ever used has my teams on my home page and I didn’t have to dig for information. ### 2/5 — Not Great *2025-08-07, version 10.0* The ECNL app worked OK at first. But at some point, an update was pushed out about 8-10 months ago and I was bumped out. I have not been able to log back in. Same for my wife and son. The app just freezes and does not let me use the “forgot my password” option. It just stays frozen or hung up. Very frustrating. For as much money as we dish out in club fees, the league should invest in a better functioning app. ### 1/5 — App does not work *2025-05-19, version 10.0* I used this app for a few months without issues. Now, the app does not work at all. It will not load and just spins on the sign in page. ### 1/5 — Isn’t working-just spins *2025-05-04, version 10.0* For the past several weeks the app hasn’t worked. I’ve tried uninstalling it and reinstalling it, logging in and out..nothing fixes it. Disappointing! ### 1/5 — Poor performance *2025-05-03, version 10.0* Continually having to delete and re-download this app. It rarely loads up! ### 1/5 — Terrible app *2025-04-27, version 10.0* Not sure how difficult it is to have a functional soccer app, but this certainly isn’t it… ### 1/5 — App doesn’t work *2025-04-12, version 10.0* Garbage app worked fine initially but now can’t find my player to connect and no way to troubleshoot ### 1/5 — Awful app *2025-04-08, version 10.0* Quite possibly the worst app in history. Always logs you out and now it never loads just the spinning circle. Deleted and reinstalled the app several times only to get the same result. Having to set up some player / parent account where the players are always getting logged out and always needing to log in just to track scores and schedules is ridiculous. It should be simple to use but it’s like solving a complex riddle every time you want to access basic information like schedules and standings. An elite league that costs thousands a year to participate in should have a seamless and intuitive app experience. ### 1/5 — App not working at all *2025-04-07, version 10.0* It was working until it wasn’t. ### 1/5 — Constantly crashes *2025-04-06, version 10.0* Unable to use despite deleting and reinstalling multiple times ### 1/5 — ??? *2025-04-06, version 10.0* Any chance this app will work any time soon? Uninstalling and reinstalling numerous times did not solve the issue. Ecnl website on a phone browser is terrible, but does barely work. The app=spinning wheel, does not work at all. ### 2/5 — Works well, until it doesnt *2025-03-30, version 10.0* The app was working perfectly fine for a while… I was able to see my son’s games schedule pretty easily compared to his club team actual app. So that was super convenient for me. I’ve read some other reviews where it’s kind of a pain in the neck to go see standings for your child’s league and I agree that it is a little bit tedious. However, recently as of March 29, my son‘s schedule has completely disappeared from the app. I can still go under My teams and see that his club is still on my teams, it is marked as that I am following them, and I can go look at standings for his league and find his team and then their schedule… But on the “My schedule” button, it just has a blank schedule that comes up… And that just started today March 29, 2025. I’m not sure if this is a glitch in the app, and there’s no way for you to contact anyone Through the app to ask if there is a glitch in the app. Which is super inconvenient as well because there’s no place to actually go and try and talk to someone and see if there is a bug with the app. ### 1/5 — Doesn’t work *2025-03-26, version 10.0* It’s was working for a while and now after the last update it stopped working. I’ve uninstalled and reinstalled it like 6x in so done with it! ### 2/5 — 2 stars at the most… *2025-03-26, version 10.0* So using this app requires patience. There’s a protocol for you to actually be able to use it, not the most friendly one. Secondly, when you already find the team your son plays in, you follow it immediately to prevent the hassle of looking for it again. But following the team does not mean that it will be available when you click “My Teams”, you still need to click either male or female teams for the team you follow. Then after you’re in the profile of the team you’re interested in, you can only see their schedule and some other unnecessary stuff, you can’t jump from there to see the standings with a click, oh no, you need to go back by either clicking back several steps of closing the app and opening it again and searching for the league conference of your team on either ECNL or ECNL/Regional, then find the year and THEN finally see the standings. ### 1/5 — Never opens *2025-03-22, version 10.0* The app just spins and never opens ### 1/5 — App just doesn’t work on ios *2025-03-16* App never loads up. Tried removing and reinstalling the app several times. Got to login screen only one time after reinstalling the app. The app crashes after entering the logjn and there after, the app just spins and spins to load login screen. Had same behavior on multiple apple phones. All phones have the latest ios updates. No idea how to get the app working ### 1/5 — No longer works *2025-03-16, version 10.0* The “upgrade” requiring an account doesn’t work. I try to login and it freezes. Quit the app, and it sits and spins, never opening. I’ve deleted and reinstalled the app, simply does not work. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — App and website developed poorly *2026-03-01, version 13.1* Whoever developed this groups website and app are pretty unknowing and poor. Constant ssl errors on everything. It’s awful as well as amateurish. The amount of shear money this soccer Ponzi command, they are cheating out on the primary interface. Would expect nothing less from American club soccer entities. Fix your product. ### 1/5 — Cannot Click Schedules *2026-02-17, version 13.1* Can’t click the schedules by age group. Has been broken for a week. ### 1/5 — Updates made by nimrods that run this league *2025-11-15* Latest update doesn’t work. Cannot search for either of my players, once I go to pick the team, it defaults to login expired and the back button doesn’t work. The app now works much similar to the way this money grab league works, terribly to not at all. I use web site more because it sometimes works. The app is worthless. Nice update ECNL. Maybe you can make more of a mess on the next one. ### 1/5 — It’s too slow!!!! *2025-10-28, version 10.0* I’ve been trying to login but it’s always kicking me out and it’s always the same loading screen. It spins forever and doesn’t stop ### 1/5 — Little to no functionality *2025-09-16, version 10.0* They could improve a lot with the navigation and functionality. ### 1/5 — Bugs *2025-08-24, version 10.0* The activation code can’t be entered ### 1/5 — Unstable! *2025-08-20, version 10.0* Crashed and spoils for fun. If I could give it zero stars I would ### 1/5 — Pay gating an essential youth soccer app *2025-08-13, version 10.0* This app is annoying and cumbersome to use. It makes it easy for players to be blocked from their account. It’s a bad, clunky app that would be an annoyance if free. As a paid app, it’s an abomination ### 1/5 — Spinning circles *2025-08-02, version 10.0* I’m a team manager for my son’s team and need the app to work consistently. It works once, the next time it won’t load and does the spinning circle of death. I have to delete the app and redownload it, EVERY TIME I use it. ### 1/5 — One of the worst apps I've used *2025-07-27, version 10.0* Fall of 2024 the app worked perfectly. By spring I could no longer log in. Finally got past the log in and now the app just will not load. It's like the league decided they didn't want an app so they've made it useless rather than just completely delete it. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Amazing app! *2025-12-12, version 12.0* Works very well and is quick and easy to use. Also helps with recruiting! ### 5/5 — Update pretty good *2024-11-21* Have a college showcase coming up for my two girls so was a bit worried at first on access. Got it all fig’d out now. Parents get 2 free access or something. Either way I like it. It links straight to their teams so it’s pretty idiot proof for me. ### 5/5 — Best app *2024-09-28* This app is great! Everything I need to see is easily accessible. I can easily follow the scores of my kids games when I am not able to attend. Now that I have a login for my personal account I can follow our competitors and see how they are doing. Great upgrade ECNL! ### 5/5 — ECNL *2024-09-28, version 4.5* I have been playing and coaching club soccer for 20+ years of my life.. so grateful there’s finally a digital platform that connects everything together. ### 5/5 — Working again *2023-07-11, version 4.1* When it was non responsive, I think they were removing all 22-23 games and getting ready for 23-24 season. Good to go again! ### 5/5 — ECNL APP *2022-01-27, version 2.9* Need to develop an APP for the Apple IPad. ### 5/5 — Glitchy App *2021-10-31* It keeps crashing sometimes or either the links wont open ### 5/5 — ECNL App *2021-06-22, version 2.7* Great App. Easy to navigate with a professional look. ECNL continues to be the leader in youth soccer across the country! ### 5/5 — Thanks *2021-01-15, version 2.6* Very useful and helpful for games and schedules!! ### 5/5 — Incredibly helpful *2019-05-11, version 1.8* This app is so helpful when looking for games and keeps us update on game changes. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
