I can track the score when I’m in situations I shouldn’t. 😃 ### 5/5 — Amazing app *2025-06-28, version 3.4.1* W score check ### 5/5 — Brilliant app *2025-05-02* This is so much better than the AFL live app, love the functionality and being able to add any games to my Lock screen. Also enjoy how easy and simple to use it is. Well done ### 5/5 — Cool *2025-04-27, version 3.3* It’s actually a really good app. Works really good, shows the scores ### 5/5 — CarPlay *2025-04-24, version 3.3* Best app out there. Would pay for this if it were available for CarPlay ### 5/5 — Better than AFL! *2025-03-25* I’m normally not one to download “unnecessary” apps but I thought I would give this one a whirl considering it’s both free and ad free! Pleasantly surprised from the moment I first opened the app. Well designed by a developer who really cares about the functionality of their app and to further that point this does a better job at live updates than the official AFL app. Not often I’ll stop to leave a review but this is such a niche that the developer has filled perfectly. The AFL app needs to take note! Well done, I hope they commission you to redesign their app, the only problem with that prospect is the inevitable ads that would come with it. Thanks for this app! I’ll be using it a lot all season long and I’m recommending it to anyone I think will be interested ### 5/5 — Perfect App but please do an NRL version *2025-03-22, version 3.1* Perfect App but please do an NRL version ### 5/5 — Works every time + fantasy scores *2025-03-21* The addition of fantasy scoring has made this 10/10. ### 5/5 — Perfect app *2025-03-15* Now the reliability of creating the Lock Screen notifications is sorted out this app is basically perfect. Does exactly what you need, no extra rubbish, and no gambling ads. Perfect. ### 5/5 — Love it… please make an NRL version. I’ll pay. 😀 *2025-02-27* This is the best app in Australia for tracking a sport, game by game and round by round. The live activities are the shining star. I wish there was a version for NRL. I would pay for one **Developer response:** Hello, stoked that you’re enjoying the app! Unfortunately I don’t follow NRL. Maybe if Perth gets a team I’ll have a reason to add it in :) ### 5/5 — Better than five stars *2025-01-20, version 3.0* I’d give this app six stars if I could. Best option to follow footy scores live. Blake, please add a “send me a tip” option! ### 5/5 — Need For NRL *2024-09-28, version 2.9.2* Best app for AFL scores please add NRL scores would be perfect! ### 5/5 — The best afl app for kids under the ages of 10 *2024-09-12, version 2.8.1* It is so good because it’s got live scores on your home page ### 5/5 — Love this App! *2024-08-17, version 2.7.3* Well done, finally an App that is simple but accurate with ease of use. ### 5/5 — Score check *2024-08-03, version 2.7.3* Great app for giving me reminders about my team and all teams for that matter. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — App no longer works *2025-06-01* This app used to be great when it worked, but recent versions don't work. The scoreboard countdown appears on the Lock Screen before match, but when it reaches 0:00 at the beginning it never switches into score mode and just shows 00 v 00 for the whole duration of the match. And then it just stays there showing 0:00 long after the match is actually over. **Developer response:** Hello, thanks so much for reporting your issue. In case you didn’t know, there is a Contact Us feature inside the app which will allow your issues to be fixed more easily than providing a review here. However, this issue that was affecting some users should now be fixed. Feel free to reach out via Contact Us if not. ### 1/5 — Horrible *2023-06-30, version 1.1.3* Doesn’t work don’t buy cheers ### 1/5 — Dose not work *2023-06-29, version 1.1.3* I have tried to add to Home Screen but it dose not work! Waist of my time!!! ### 3/5 — Review *2025-03-19, version 3.1* It doesn’t show the time game time on my phone ### 4/5 — I don’t know how to do this *2025-08-03* I don’t know how to put the scores at the top of the screen they should make it easier to do so more people dont have to turn the ohone off and back on to see it or go to the app ### 4/5 — Really great app *2025-04-26, version 3.3* Love this app. Thanks for creating this. Only issue is I can’t work out how to get it on my watch otherwise it’s perfect ### 4/5 — Can’t open it *2024-09-27* After I updated it, I tried to click on it to open it but it was getting in and then like logging me out so I can’t like check the scores. But if they fix this problem, it’s a good app. **Developer response:** Sorry about that, we had an issue with iOS 17 after adding iOS 18 support. It should be working again now. ### 4/5 — Would be perfect if *2024-06-11* Hi, I’m loving this app, only one I’ve found that does this properly. This would be perfect if it also had an Apple Watch companion that would allow the live score to be added as a complication on the watch face. Is there any chance this is being looked into as a feature? Thank you. **Developer response:** Hi, glad you enjoy the app. Apple Watch support has been added in watchOS 11! ### 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? ## Most praised reviews (8 highest-rated) ### 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. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
