### 4/5 — Print Pairings & Save Tourney Data

*2026-03-28*

I couldn’t figure out how to print the pairings for each round. Also, when the tournament ends, I couldn’t find a way to review the tournament results later (doesn’t save tournaments?).  I also could not find a way to go back into a round and correct mistakes. When a player showed up right after I submitted the first round
pairings, I couldn’t find a way to quickly add the player and recalculate the pairing. Instead I had to scrap the entire tournament and restart with a new tournament.  (Used app for a ten-board scholastic Swiss last week.)

**Developer response:** Hi! Thanks a lot for your detailed feedback — it really helps us improve the app 😊
We’ve just released a new version that includes a redesigned Help screen, which should make it much easier to find guidance on features like pairings, results, and tournament management.
Also, some of the issues you mentioned have already been addressed in this update — including improvements to handling players, reviewing results, and overall tournament flow. We’re continuing to work on making corrections and edits during rounds more flexible as well.
We truly appreciate you taking the time to share your experience, and we hope this new version makes things much smoother for your next tournament! If you have any other suggestions, feel free to reach out

### 4/5 — Pretty good

*2024-12-22*

Not the most sophisticated of interfaces. Could use some instructions and a little more functionality. But does run an effective Swiss pairing system for small to medium sized tournaments. I would suggest playing around with the app well before your tournament starts because several functions are not immediately intuitive and  documentation is non-existent. 

Would like the option of a 0.5 point bye.

**Developer response:** Thank you for your feedback. We will be creating clearer documentation for the app, and adding the option to configure how many points a "bye" will be worth. Thank you for your review.

### 2/5 — Bad idea.

*2024-04-08*

If you do not pass a certain amount of players, the tournament length will not be longer than 5 rounds. We have planned 7 rounds till end of summer, but you need a only a few more players for this. I can not use this app for the planning. Otherwise ok, but too little functions and too little development.

**Developer response:** Good morning, According to the number of players and to ensure that the players who face each other have the same or similar scores, it is not possible to have many rounds in the Swiss system, because with many rounds players with high scores would face players with very low scores. Harming the result of the tournament. To have a tournament with few players and many rounds look for an app that has is the “all against all” system. Thank you in advance for downloading the app, success for you!

### 5/5 — Com a nova utualização

*2024-02-24*

Está mais completo, com novas funcionalidades e com o pareamento de grupos mais justo!

### 3/5 — Very nice, but …

*2021-09-19*

… I need to have the possibility to „pause“ players in a specific round. We do often have tournaments where not all players are joining each round. They tell this in advance, will be not pared and take a bye.

**Developer response:** Thank you very much, your opinion is very important, we are already working on a version with this new functionality and other improvements, it will be available soon!
