Run the pool. Win the pool. Talk the most trash. PickemBOSS is pick'em, survivor, and confidence pools for pro and college football, built for the group chat you already have. THREE WAYS TO PLAY Pick'em — pick every game, one point per correct pick. Survivor — one team a week, never twice. Lose and you're out. Confidence — rank every game. The surer you are, the more it's worth. Every format also runs in Losers mode, where picking the loser is the point. BUILT FOR IPHONE DUO Unfold and every screen gets a second page. Your stats sit beside your pools. Your picks sit beside the pool's roster. The week's picks grid sits beside the standings. Managers see the pools they run beside a new one. Fold it back up and it's the same PickemBOSS on the cover screen, and anything you were in the middle of comes with you. BUILT SO NOBODY CAN CHEAT Picks lock at each game's kickoff, and locking is enforced on our servers — not on your phone. A no-pick is a loss and can't be filled in afterward. Nobody sees another player's pick until that game starts, so there's no copying the sharp in your pool and no reading the room on Sunday morning. THE TUESDAY RECAP When the week is graded, your pool gets a recap deck. Who topped it, who bottomed out, the pick only one person made that came in, the game the whole room got wrong. Every card is shareable, and one tap fires it into your pool's Trash Talk with your name attached. TRASH TALK Every pool gets a board. PickemBOSS itself posts when games lock, when an upset lands, and when the week is graded — so there's always something to argue about. Five reactions, a pinned commissioner note, and the tools a manager needs: report, mute, hide, delete. MY STATS Your record everywhere you've played. Win rate overall, by pool type, and by league. Current streak and your best ever. Weeks won, weeks lost. The teams you read best and the ones you should stop picking. Splits for home and away, prime time, one-score games, and the picks where you went against the room — with badges when you earn them. FOR MANAGERS Create a pool in about a minute. Choose the format, the mode, the start week, and whether the playoffs count. Share one invite code. Approve players, edit names, see who hasn't picked, print the standings or a full picks grid for the wall at the bar. Set a message every member sees when they open the pool. FOR PLAYERS Enter a code and you're in. Pick from the schedule with team logos, scores, and live results. Watch the leaderboard reorder as games finish. Get a push when picks are about to lock, when the week is graded, and when someone takes a week off you. PRO AND COLLEGE FOOTBALL Full regular season, plus playoffs and the championship if the manager turns them on. Schedules and scores update automatically. FREE TO PLAY Creating a pool, joining a pool, and making picks are all free. Optional one-time purchases remove ads, unlock multiple entries per player, and add extra pools for managers who run more than one. PickemBOSS does not handle real money, does not facilitate wagering, and does not track who owes whom. It's a pick'em pool app for friends who want to settle who's the better picker. PRIVACY We don't sell your data and we don't track you across other apps. We store what's needed to run your pools and nothing more. You can delete your account and all its data from inside the app at any time. QUESTIONS? support@pickemboss.com Privacy: https://pickemboss.com/privacy/ Terms: https://pickemboss.com/terms/
