Volleyball Planner is the essential tool for fine tuning your volleyball team's rotation as well as teaching plays and formations. Works for teams with between 6 and 12 players. Modes: Edit Lineup - Players can be customized with names, gender, primary and secondary skills as well as pictures. These settings will be reflected on the players icons to better assist you in setting up your rotation. Rotations can be saved and loaded to help you compare rotations used for different matches. Rotation - Flip through your teams rotation using the backward and forward. This is a great way to make sure your setters lined up correctly and have proper attackers and diggers ready in all rotations of your games. Playbook - Create and save plays for your team to reference. Move around your players, put the volleyball in play and draw up the plays that you want your team to run during your games. Formations - Create and save formations for your team to reference. Having trouble explaining where your players should be positioned in specific situations? Show them using the Formations mode. Note: This app was created based on my experience in recreational leagues where we rotate in the whole team during games. Planning for more competitive leagues can be done by setting substitutes as inactive so they do not factor into the rotation in Rotation mode.

Verdict
The clearest difference is price: Team Lineup Basic at Free against Volleyball Planner's $0.99. Team Lineup Basic also leads on review sentiment (74% vs 30%) and rating (4.6 vs 2.3). Volleyball Planner's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and iOS requirement (8.0 vs 14.5). On in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
