What's New in Need a Player

1.0.2

July 21, 2026

NEW — Guests Keep a separate guest list for each team. Invite fill-in players to individual games without adding them to your roster, and they count toward your squad total. NEW — Reactions React to messages in team chat. NEW — Report and block Report a message or a player, and block anyone you'd rather not hear from. GAME FULL Games now lock once they hit the squad cap, and anyone still waiting is told. If someone drops out the spot reopens and players who hadn't answered yet get first refusal. FOR CAPTAINS You're notified when a player drops out, so you know to find a replacement. Vice-captains can now edit team settings and kit colours. LEAGUE SCHEDULES New seasons are picked up automatically — when your league posts one, you're prompted to import it. ALSO - Search players by first name, last name or nickname - Last names shown in chat and on player cards - Invite people straight from your phone's share sheet - Faster first launch on a fresh install - Fixes to team chat and shared invite links

Math

I think this app is so beautiful and I think it will help my children two little boys 5 and 6 and they really love having amazing games all of the time by using this very very spontaneous app thank you thank you for making this beautiful and wonderfully created app

The best way to find pickup games!

This app is perfect. The UI seems to be very polished and the loading animations were just the bump it needed to be 5 star. Additionally, creating a profile was extremely user friendly and I was able to make one in less than 5 minutes. Everything in the app feels organized and intentional. Furthermore, compared to other apps i’ve tried in the past Need a Player is easier for me (13 Male). Most apps have trouble with letting 13 year olds get into consistent matches, but this one does the job perfectly. So for anyone who wants to get into pickup, whether your young and a beginner, or old and experienced, this app will fit your needs.
