## What is Fanish Sports?

Sports are more fun when you know what's going on.

Fanish is a sports knowledge app for people who want to enjoy the big matches — soccer's biggest summer tournament, the 2026 open-wheel racing season, and everything in between — without the hardcore fan baggage. Heading to the stadium, watching at a party, or just trying to keep up at brunch? Fanish gives you the briefs, storylines, and conversation starters that make every match feel like one you actually want to watch.

WHAT YOU GET

• Pre-match briefs — the why behind every match. Who's playing, what's at stake, the storylines fans are following. Written in plain English, not stat-sheet jargon.
•Talk the Talk — tap "What should I say?" and get a few one-liners you can actually drop at the stadium, at the party, or on the group chat. Sound smart without trying.
• Two modes — Fan mode for the easy basics (who, what, where). Ish mode for the culture layer (drama, storylines, the angles fans actually talk about). Switch with one tap.
• Real-time data — lineups, standings, race results, key moments. Pulled live from licensed data providers so you're never reading a stale page.
• Personalized to you — tell Fanish how you're watching and what interests you, and the briefs adjust. Stadium prep is different from couch-with-friends.

FOR WHO

• You're heading to a soccer match and want to know what to say to the people next to you.
• You're watching racing with friends who know the drivers, the standings, the drama — and you want to keep up.
• You've never followed soccer or racing but you know everyone else will be glued to the screen.
• You're tired of stats-heavy sports apps that assume you already know the basics.

WHAT'S INCLUDED IN THE LAUNCH PACK ($4.99 — ONE-TIME)

• First Whistle — full coverage of the 2026 international soccer tournament. Every group stage match, every knockout, every team brief.
• Lights Out — full coverage of the 2026 fast cars racing season. Every race weekend, every team, every driver storyline.
• Every ish card, glossary term, and pre-match brief.

One-time purchase. No subscription. Yours forever.

### 5/5 — Pretty darn good ish

*2026-07-08, version 1.2*

I like this app. It's cool to see a thoughtful take on how to make sports more accessible beyond just meme accounts on instagram and twitter. I also like playing around with talk the ish. Kinda fun and I learn things without having to actually becoming a die hard fan.

### 5/5 — Casual Sports Fan Perfection

*2026-07-08, version 1.2*

App provides a great amount of detail for the dedicated sports fan, but also the casual sports fan. As a casual sports fan, interested in the immediate event, the app provides me with the right amount of detail, talking points, and I feel knowledgeable about what’s happening. The live update features are extremely helpful and relevant, particularly for events that are active. For anyone looking for a casual sports app with key talking points, would highly recommend. For the dedicated sports fan, this app also provides detailed and relevant analysis.

### 5/5 — Cool app!

*2026-07-07, version 1.2*

I’m a gay who doesn’t watch sports but the app makes it easier to get the gist for the world cup and F1.  It’s easier than random google searches. Excited for tennis or golf to be supported because I do actually occasionally watch those.

### 5/5 — Casual World Cup fan

*2026-07-07, version 1.2*

Casual World Cup fan here,and Fanish nails the live experience. The in-match events keep me up to speed on what’s happening without burying me in numbers-just the moments that matter, in plain language. I actually follow the whole match now instead of zoning out. Perfect balance for casual fans

## Version history (last 3 releases)

### 1.2 — 2026-07-03

Our biggest jump yet. Ask ish. A better live match experience — now end to end, from kickoff to the final whistle.

Ask ish. 
• Ask ish anything — a new sports Q&A tool right on the Hub.

Follow every match, start to finish.
• Track the knockout bracket from the Round of 32 to the Final
• A live brief that updates as the action unfolds
• When the whistle blows, a Postgame roundup breaks down what just happened

Smoother to get around.
• Swipe between Sports, Hub, and Profile — and as always swipe the fan/ish toggle to switch modes
• Keep your place — scroll the feed, open an article, and come back exactly where you left off
• Recent searches, resume-where-you-left-off search, and snappier result taps

Plus cleaner match stats, "updated" timestamps on briefs, keyboard-aware sheets, and the usual round of fixes and polish.

### 1.1 — 2026-06-24

Talk the ish now offers six voices for your line — ish, Spicy, Funny, Sarcastic, Superfan, and Insider — each grounded in the real stats and storylines of the game, and tuned to where you're watching: the stadium, a watch party, or the couch.

Live matches just got richer: a live brief that updates as the action unfolds, goalscorers and cards right on the score, and live group standings.

Getting around is smoother, too — jump back into your recent searches, and keep your place in the feed when you open an article and come back. Plus a fresh look at what you're missing during live games, and the usual round of fixes and polish.

### 1.0 — 2026-06-02
