It’s great seeing what others have tipped once the game starts. However, I feel that allowing users to autotip user favourites allows people to go into autopilot mode for the whole season and do extremely well, if not win their tipping comps. Makes it less interesting when people aren’t even looking at the app whilst others who make the effort don’t get close. I feel that the app should adopt a couple things from Superbru. Autotip should always default to the away team, and you can only view user percentages once your tips are permanently locked. None the less, looking forward to the next one 👍 ### 4/5 — Good but could be better *2026-05-02* It’s lots of fun having a tipping comp with your family and friends, and with work, however, I do feel that it could be a bit more exciting. Seeing user fav percentages sways people too much as they then only choose user favs. It’d be better if you couldn’t see these percentages until after the game started and tips are locked in. That would make it a bit more exciting overall rather than being a tad predictable. Just a thought :) ### 4/5 — New season issues for app *2026-02-06* Great app used it since 2019 but this season it allows me to access afl tipping on safari but not on the app as it keeps directing me to the 2025 period. Can we please fix it cause I’ve got a lot of family members trying to join my league but only want to use the app. ### 2/5 — Update the App *2026-02-06, version 8.6* Like a previous review from years ago, the app still isn’t current. Still showing as “we are taking a break” footy starts in a few weeks! This should be available much earlier! ### 4/5 — Convenient *2025-04-14* Easy to use and much preferred to the website as you don’t need to constantly login. Only thing that’s missing is the percentage chance for the teams that to, and only the bets are shown. ### 2/5 — Worked better in afl App *2025-04-10, version 8.1* Absolutely bungled this app everytime you try to open the app I get a could not connect to server message I have missed my first game tips too many times as I haven’t been able to place tips for 3 days sort it out ### 2/5 — Constantly drops out *2025-03-30, version 8.1* Not bad to use when it does work… but has content server connection issues, not just myself having the issue but plenty of other people I’m in tipping contest with. ### 1/5 — Bad *2025-03-28, version 8.1* Horrible keep crashing very annoying to use ### 1/5 — Server issues *2025-03-13, version 8.1* Keeps on saying unable to connect to the server. Fix it!!!!! ### 5/5 — Amazing *2025-03-09, version 8.1* Awesome app really helpful for my family afl tipping ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Bad *2026-06-25, version 9.0.2* Not happy with this new version, the old way was way better, ### 1/5 — Terrible *2026-04-02, version 9.0.1* The updated app is literally terrible. That’s all the words I have….terrible. Makes me not want to participate in footy tipping it’s that bad. ### 1/5 — Gone downhill *2026-03-12, version 9.0.1* Tipping leaderboards are now clunky and cluttered. Resulting in a table that displays cut off information. You are also unable to see other members tips anymore. Previous version was perfect - now it is painful! ### 1/5 — New 2026 update is terrible *2026-03-12, version 9.0.1* The app is so confusing now trying to navigate to my footy tipping comp, see the tipping ladder and latest results. Go back to how it was last year, nice and user friendly. ### 1/5 — OMG why did they change this app *2026-03-08, version 9.0.1* As the title says why did they change the app? It is so bad. Can we roll back to last years? Simple things like you can’t see the tips in your comp because the display is too large. I could go on. ### 1/5 — Why? *2026-03-05, version 9.0.1* This years app features have changed and not for the better. Last years functionality was way better!! Why fix when it wasn’t broken? ### 1/5 — Removed best feature *2026-03-05, version 9.0.1* They have removed the feature where you can see what other players tips in your league once the games start. That was the best feature, devastated it had been removed. ### 1/5 — Terrible interface *2026-03-05, version 9.0.1* This app used to be so great…. UNTIL they changed the whole interface. It used to be so simple. Now you have to push about 6 buttons just to get to your groups ladder ### 1/5 — Annoying *2025-06-06, version 8.3* Sometimes when I open the app to check my tips it always says could not connect to server and it’s happening more often so can you guys please fix this problem. ### 1/5 — Clunky app designed for cereal brand *2025-05-28, version 8.2* Very basic clunky app. Almost like it was designed for a cereal brand or other non digital product. ESPN or AFL much better. Also over promotion of gambling and crypto. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Wow! *2026-02-11, version 9.0* Easy to use! Great app! ### 5/5 — The only reason why we have a new one *2025-10-17* The most important part of the game is that you can play with the player in your own mind thing about this game ### 5/5 — I LOVE THIS APP *2025-08-30, version 8.3* this is my favourite app of all time please make more give me more please give me more I need more please please please ### 5/5 — Great App *2025-07-10* I recommend this app because it shows you all the games and the time there playing at and it gives you something to believe in lol😭 ### 5/5 — Best tipping app *2025-06-16, version 8.3* Great ### 5/5 — Easy to use *2025-06-08, version 8.3* Great app to follow the afl over every season! Easy to understand and join comps with friends n work groups ### 5/5 — Absolutely amazing! *2025-05-29, version 8.2* Everything is fine, it’s great and fun to compete with family, friends and other people around Australia ### 5/5 — tipping *2025-03-31, version 8.1* it’s a good app for afl supporters ### 5/5 — Free tipping comp *2025-03-21* Great to set up free tipping comp with friends or work colleagues to see who can guess the winning teams each week. Not sure if people are widely aware that there are no funds associated with this, it is fun and free. ### 5/5 — AFL tipping *2025-03-17, version 8.1* Easiest app to use. Very upto date.
