Excellent, comprehensive, and far better than the written books we used to receive!

Glad to see the laws of the game digitized. The physical book was great while it lasted all those decades ago, but this is so much better. Much easier to search and the question and answer section could be a book all on its own. Might need a better organizational method on the Q&A, but the laws are organized as they always have been, which is great. Really appreciate the standardization.

Thank you very much for your review. We're happy to hear that you enjoy using the Laws of the Game app. Your positive feedback is highly appreciated. If you have any ideas on how to make the app and its Q&A section even better, please send us an email with your suggestions at logapp@theifab.com. All the best, The IFAB

Love the Q&A Updates!

The recent addition of the “save” and “show answer” buttons for the Q&As are very appreciated! I will literally open this app at halftime or after the match to educate a player/coach/referee, and being able to quickly find the Q&As I need most often will be a great help. Keep up the amazing work!

Still using last season’s odds

We are two months into the new season, an international break and even 3 months into the new laws being in place.

Did no one thought about updating this app in this time? It’s not hard to edit.
