About

FlagStat

Features
Read full description

FlagStat is a flag-football tracking app for recreational leagues. It replaces pen-and-paper scorekeeping with a simple, ref-driven game tracker that everyone in the league can follow. This is the V1.1 pilot build — you're testing an early version with our league. Focus your feedback on what felt natural and what felt clunky during a live game. What you can do • Run a live game. Refs use a single iPhone or iPad to track plays, scores, the play clock, and timeouts in real time. • Manage your league. Create a league, invite members with an 8-character access code, set up rosters and schedules. Commissioners can assign players to teams from the team page; players can also pick their own team after joining. • Three roles. Players follow their team's stats; Coaches manage one team's roster; Referees run live games. The role you pick at sign-up determines what you can do across the leagues you join. • House rules + Ask the Ref. Commissioners write league-specific rules (mercy rule, equipment, timing, sportsmanship, custom). Refs see them alongside the standard rulebook during a game, so close calls don't slow things down. • Offline-first for refs. Keep tracking even when wifi at the field is spotty; everything syncs when you're back online. • See the season. Schedule, standings, top passers/receivers/rushers/defense, and recent box scores all live in the League tab. What's coming after the pilot • Sideline video review and per-game video review (cut from V1 to keep this build focused). • Highlight reels and per-player video exports. • League brackets and playoff scheduling. • Live spectator mode (players across the league can follow the ongoing games in real time without the ref's device). Sign in with Apple — we never see your password. Privacy policy: https://flagstat.app/privacy Questions: support@flagstat.app
