Please add that feature.... ### 4/5 — Spelling Errors *2015-01-21, version 2.36.0* After keeping stats tonight at a ball game, I noticed that there was at least one spelling error in the recording of plays. Successful only has one "l" in the successful upload message. Anyway, recording stats is my every once in a while night job, but by day I am a Language Arts teacher so I notice things like that very easily. Other than that, it is very quick and fairly easy to use. I could use a loose ball foul option to keep track of those really ugly scrambles halfway down the court, and I think maybe a section where you could add categories of your own in case the coach wants you to watch for something special that night. Maybe it's already there, and I just haven't found it yet. Nice app, though. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Basketball App *2025-11-22, version 4.1.8* Won’t sync with Maxpreps ### 1/5 — Worthless without WiFi *2024-12-29, version 4.1.7* This app looks great on the AppStore but when trying to use it, it doesn’t recognize the WiFi connection. Even though I’m connected, the app claims there is no WiFi and won’t load teams or rosters. I would have liked to try it but it’s worthless to me without the app recognizing that it has internet available. ### 1/5 — MacBook App Doesn’t Work *2024-11-28, version 4.1.7* I’ve used the app on iPad, and it works just fine. However, when using the app on my MacBook, I am only able to record shot attempts and makes; no rebounds, turnovers, assists, etc. Very disappointing. I cannot even email someone to report the issue. I hope the developers read this review and fix the app on MacBook. ### 1/5 — Warning! Not as advertized *2022-12-13* This app ONLY does stats for a selection of existing AMERICAN teams. Junk propaganda ### 1/5 — PLEASE FIX *2020-02-02, version 4.0.8* Can you put college teams in there, and instead of my team and opponent, put the team name on the sore board, PLEASE WRITE BACK ### 1/5 — Terrible *2019-11-27, version 4.0.5* No box scores to easily email to media outlets after the game. Last time I will use this app. ### 2/5 — Can’t Upload Stats *2025-12-10, version 4.1.8* App is great during the game for keeping stats. However starting in the 25-26 season you cannot directly upload your stats to Maxpreps. How is that even possible it’s your own app! It’s like you forgot you have the app! Please fix right away. ### 2/5 — Needs several improvements *2023-01-30, version 4.1.5* This app has so much potential and could be great. The biggest issue I have is the clock. It’s a tiny button to pause it, and when you enter a score, the clock starts itself automatically even when you want it stopped. Very annoying, but it also leads to the biggest issue — when you need to then reset the clock back to match the actual game, it doesn’t subtract that time from the player’s minutes. So, for example, if the clock on the app is running for 20 seconds after the game clock stopped either bc you forgot to stop it or it started on its own, you notice & stop it, then you edit the app’s clock back 20 sec to match the real time. All good, except that now the players that were on the floor have that extra 20s on their minutes. It will even show that they’ve played 8:20 of an 8 minute quarter. This adds up over the course of a game. That issue makes it so you can’t trust the player’s minutes, which I need to show player efficiency, to see which players do best on the floor together, etc. ### 2/5 — Stats upload *2019-11-27, version 4.0.5* Nice app to keep score but won’t upload stats to MaxPreps ### 3/5 — Good App ……. Has some bugs *2022-12-18, version 4.1.5* Have been using the app for nine games now and have found that after a few games, the game clock starts malfunctioning ……. Dropping large chunks of time on every restart, when running dropping 3 seconds for every click of the clock. I have deleted the App and reloaded it (and then had to restore all the game files from the MaxPreps server) and the clock works properly until the bug reappears after a few games. User manual could be better…. looks the App May be automatically adding a turnover when an offensive foul is entered, but it does not show up in the events log. User manual does not mention this so will have to do some testing to figure it out. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Team Fouls New Rule *2024-01-05, version 4.1.6* We need a way to reset team fouls each quarter with new rule 5 team fouls per quarter is now 2 shots and resets each quarter. If theirs a way let me know ### 5/5 — Great App, with one suggestion *2022-11-10, version 4.1.5* This is a great app for stat keeping, I’ve used this app for years and I am very happy with it. It has a simple to use interface and is easy to use. I would love to see 1 or 2 “custom” stat buttons. There are “hustle stats” or team goals that we like to track and if we had the ability to have an “other” or “custom” stat button that would be great. ### 5/5 — Landscape option *2022-11-01, version 4.1.5* Does this app have an option for landscape view? ### 5/5 — Best stat app *2022-02-16, version 4.1.4* This is the best stat app. Never let me down!! ### 5/5 — Life Changer! *2022-01-27, version 4.1.4* Best App for most accurate stat keeping! ### 5/5 — Asst Coach *2020-01-12, version 4.0.7* Love this app,but for some reason I have had several problem with it loading ### 5/5 — Best stat app available *2019-01-19, version 4.0.3* Best stat app available, does it all, very efficient! ### 5/5 — Awesome *2015-01-06, version 2.36.0* Awesome app. Any chance of adding possession and a jump ball button? ### 4/5 — Great Stat App *2025-01-01, version 4.1.7* This app to keep track of your high school team stats is great and as it works hand in hand with MaxPreps, it makes it easy to keep track and upload stats directly to MaxPreps. One thing they need to update is to clear the team fouls at the change of the Quarter as teams are in the bonus at 5 fouls per quarter, except when going into overtime as the team fouls carryover to the overtime period/quarter. ### 4/5 — New Foul Change *2023-12-04, version 4.1.6* Love the app and have been using it for 2 years. Would love for the new nfhs foul rule update to be added on here to change each quarter. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
