### 5/5 — Best by far

*2026-07-20, version 4.7*

This app is the best by far and the one that’s ad free. 

Also, Crazy that you can do your tipping in here!

### 5/5 — Do yourself a favour, download!

*2026-07-02, version 4.6.1*

Unbelievably valuable app for the everyday footy fan. Games in lock screen on phone, driving in CarPlay. Amazing stuff.
Can you make a cricket one please?

### 5/5 — Bug

*2026-06-27, version 4.6*

Keep getting every game for every team as live activities not just one.

### 5/5 — Awesome AFL Widget

*2026-06-22*

Exactly what I was looking for. Great clean design. Wondering if it’s possible to have the logos display in colour while you have the iPhone set to glass design? Instead of a grey circle. Like FotMob allow. Great app tho, highly recommend.

### 5/5 — Best app for scoring

*2026-05-02, version 4.5*

Amazing app super useful with the lock screen attachment and very quick at picking up bugs would recommend

### 5/5 — Not changing back to the afl app!

*2026-04-16, version 4.4.1*

This is honestly so much better than having to unlock your phone and looking through all your apps to find the afl app, this is right on your lock screen! Also if you have a MagSafe or wireless charger if you rotate your phone to landscape mode it has a big widget which shows how has scored and many more features. I am currently on an iphone 16 so I don’t no if this feature works in android but it is still worth it. Definitely worth downloading.

### 5/5 — A must have for any AFL lover!

*2026-03-22*

This app deserves so much love. It’s simple, clean, and it just does what it says it’s going to do. I also really appreciate the effort the developer goes into adding new features or fixing bugs really quickly. It’s definitely noticed! Also love how it comes up on CarPlay so I can keep track of my fantasy scores. Thank you for all your hard work in this app.

### 5/5 — How good is this App!!!

*2025-11-01*

Great app. Everything I need to check footy scores and then ladder positions. Only need to look at Lock Screen and everything you need to know about the games are on there straight away. 10 out of 10!!!!!

### 5/5 — Does exactly what it should

*2025-09-06, version 3.5*

A neat, no nonsense app that lets me focus on my team, while seeing all results at a glance. Unobtrusive and intuitive.

### 5/5 — Simple and perfect

*2025-08-16, version 3.4.2*

Clean, simple, useful and free. Love it. 

Only suggestion would be an Apple Watch Complication so you can get the scores on your actual watch face.
