Poorly designed app littered with bugs

I tried to create a game, continue as guest but it just takes me back to the home screen..

Also I don’t understand why things like news and deals are on the home screen. Like I get you’re trying to sell me on pickleball gear but at least make it feel more contextual…..

Love this App

I’m playing Pickleball for years and I’ve tried a bunch of these apps. This one just works. Easy to use quick to set up a game and if my friends didn’t have it already, they downloaded it and figured it out easily. I give this at five stars no complaints.

Perfect for Scrambles

Super useful and simple to set up a Scramble with friends! Removes the time consuming effort of creating the matches by hand

One of the worst interfaces

I can’t believe you can release a tool that is so frustrating to use. Does anyone bother to test this?

My “friends” list is incomplete

Im trying to organize games with a big group of players… around 45. When I go to invite players I ONLY SEE 15 in my list of friends! WHY? Why this limitation of people? I don’t want to create a new list every time I choose people to join… we have 3 courts, it’s a long list and it’s invite only bc I’m trying to keep balance in levels and that depends on who is coming and who is not. I need to see my FULL list of friends to pick. When I go to the phone contacts option, it doesn’t even let me go to my contact lists (I have a list with my pb friends) to choose from there, that would’ve been a work around… but no. How does this make any sense???

Response from developer

Thanks for laying this out in detail. You found a real bug. There was never meant to be a limit on how many friends you can see. Your list was cutting off early instead of showing everyone, which is why you kept landing on the same 15. The fix is going out soon, and once it lands you'll see your full list when you invite. On phone contacts: right now we read your contacts as one flat list, so contact groups aren't available to pick from. We will look into adding this capability, though with the friends list working properly it hopefully won't be the workaround you need anymore. We also have a Friend Lists feature, where you can save a group of friends once and reuse it for future invites, so you're not re-picking people each time. It's a one-time setup, not something you'd redo per game. For running invite-only games across 3 courts with balanced levels, you shouldn't be fighting the invite screen to do it. Sorry for the hassle in the meantime. If anything still looks off once you're on the new version, reach us at support@pickleball.com and we'll take a look.

Too much personal data for no reason

App mandates a name, birthdate and fine location data? The privacy policy clearly states data is collected for marketing, aka selling to data brokers. I’ll stick with annoying group chats because they don’t require my personal data and won’t sell to brokers.

Thanks for taking the time to share this — privacy matters to us too, so we'd like to clear a few things up. First and most important: we never sell your data to brokers, period. "Marketing" in our privacy policy means letting you know about pickleball play near you — leagues and tournaments — not sharing your information with third parties. That's also why we ask for a couple of details. Your location helps us surface games and events close to you, and age helps match you with the right play, since many leagues and tournaments are organized by gender and age group as well as skill level. And you're in control: you can opt out of marketing during sign-up, or anytime after in Settings. If any of this reads as unclear in our policy, we'd genuinely like to fix it — reach us at support@pickleball.com. We hope you'll give Game Maker a try.
