Constant issues, but no way to access rules electronically. ### 1/5 — AngryRef *2025-03-26, version 3.6.3* Fix this app! Same issues as the previous user. I used to use this ALOT! ### 1/5 — App Crashes *2025-03-18* Not only does this latest version of the app no longer recognize my credentials, it also returns an error when I attempt to have it send me a password reset link. (I’ve used this app in the past!) If I attempt to create a new ID on the app, it gives me a “Something went wrong” error on multiple screens and does not allow me to select a security question to answer. Why on app in this state even made it past the development phase is totally beyond me. If I could give it zero stars, I would. ### 1/5 — Won’t work *2025-03-17, version 3.6.3* I’ve downloaded this app 10 times and as soon as I open it, it always says oops something went wrong. ### 1/5 — Doesn’t work *2025-03-10, version 3.6.3* Won’t let me sign up. Wont connect to a server. No way to ask for help. ### 1/5 — Unusable *2025-02-28, version 3.6.3* One day my rule book is there, next day it’s gone ### 1/5 — Needs fixing *2025-02-28, version 3.6.3* Nothing works on this app. It keeps kicking me off and closing. ### 1/5 — Horrible *2025-02-18, version 3.6.3* This app is trash. It never wants to load and you can’t hit the rules books you need. You have to go online to buy the books and sometimes they show up in the app and sometimes they don’t. Nothing ever works and if it does it takes 6 years for it to load properly. ### 1/5 — Steaming pile of garbage *2025-02-12, version 3.6.3* Im being kind. Ratings need a negative star value. This app deserves it. Fine fine, I’ll just keep using the rule books as I’ve always done. Yes, I will continue to pay for them. The books look so gawky sticking out of my pockets They keep falling out, right on the field of play. The players have more fun kicking my rule books around than playing their sport. If only there were a digital version you could access by your phone. ### 1/5 — Useless. *2024-12-22, version 3.6.3* How can a large national organization have such completely useless apps? Seriously? ## Frequently asked questions about NFHS Rules ### What does the NFHS Rules app do?
