Great idea. Needs better execution.
This idea for the app is great but the lessons it’s teaching are just… missing some key things. For example, 3 days if it gives a Quarters lesson and says Quarters’ main goal is to guard against deep passes. That’s just wrong. It guards the deep-intermediate area of the field. One of quarters’ biggest weaknesses is deep passes because of its pattern matching principles. It’s as if the person making the quiz just looked at the picture and decided that it guards deep. The same happens with fire zones. Saying that fire zones are always 3 deep and 3 short defenders is just plain wrong. Just watch one Brian Flores coached game. How would someone learning from this app even be able to break down that tape and understand what’s happening given even a half-hour per play? I hope things like this can get fixed because it could be a great way to get average fans to understand and appreciate the game more deeply, but the execution right now is lacking. If the game ups its actual ball knowledge then I’d give it 4 stars but right now? 2.

Revolutionary
What a great idea to have young athletes grasp and learn the game of football. I’m a former collegiate athlete and I can’t help but appreciate the effort and knowledge that this app has brought into the young learners of the sport. It is an immersive experience that can be applied on the field for coaches, parents, or anyone that wants to be involved. The app is extremely efficient and user friendly. I’ve been happy to share it with the younger generation and I truly believe it is a great model for years to come. Excellent work Schemo glad to use it and have others learn the game!

Easy to learn!
Great way to learn the game
Great app just one thing
I absolutely love the idea this app presents, just wish there was an option to skip ahead or maybe a quiz in the beginning that'll place in about the right area for football IQ. With that being said I commented that on TikTok and they replied quickly saying that they are working on fixing it, and with how well developed the app looks it can't be long till this app gets bigger!

This app thinks the bare minimal is gonna get it somewhere
As a high school football player preparing to play at the college level, I was hoping this app would help improve my football IQ. Unfortunately, it really missed the mark.
The biggest issue is accessibility within the content. The app forces you to start from the most basic beginner lessons, with no option to skip ahead to more advanced material. For players who already understand the fundamentals, this makes the app feel slow and frustrating. Most experienced players aren’t going to want to sit through content that doesn’t match their level just to reach something useful.
The lessons themselves also lack engagement. Each one is essentially just a short set of about 10 quiz questions. There’s little depth, explanation, or variety—no film breakdowns, real play concepts, or anything that actually helps develop a deeper understanding of the game. It feels repetitive and doesn’t hold your attention.
On top of that, the app design is very plain. It’s not visually engaging, and there’s nothing about it that makes you want to keep coming back. For something meant to teach and motivate players, it feels like the bare minimum.
The pricing makes it even harder to justify. Charging $9.99 per month just to unlock more than a few lessons per day doesn’t match the value you’re getting. Compared to what’s offered, it feels overpriced.
Overall, this app might be helpful for complete beginners who have never played football before. But for anyone with real experience looking to improve their football knowledge, it’s not a good fit. There are better ways to develop your football IQ than what this app currently offers.

Response from developer
Thank you for the honest feedback. You’re right that the current experience can feel too basic and too limited for players looking for deeper football IQ. That’s exactly where we want to take the app next: better placement so experienced players can skip ahead, deeper lesson formats, and more advanced content. We’re still early, and feedback like this is genuinely valuable because it helps us build a much better product.
Overall Very Good!
The app is kind of like Duolingo but football. You start off learning positions and personal, and the basics. After that you get to run schemes and then pass. If you already have knowledge is can be a bit repetitive in the beginning but a good refresher.
Formatting is very good, the app it’s self is easy to navigate and honestly I have no complaints.
