Recurring themes

App Stability & Bugs negative
Many recent reviews report persistent issues with the app crashing, freezing, and failing to load or allow users to log in, particularly on iPhones. This contradicts the developer's notes claiming 'logging in is smoother'.R23R24R25R27
Recruitment Effectiveness positive
Users consistently praise FieldLevel for its effectiveness in connecting athletes with college coaches, leading to commitments and providing significant exposure. Many consider it superior to other recruiting services.R1R2R3R4
Premium Feature Cost negative
Several users express dissatisfaction with the cost of premium features, such as paying $30-$50 per month to contact colleges, see who is interested, or upload high-quality videos without compression.R15R20R31

Reviewers note the absence of several sports, including women's bowling, cheerleading, wrestling, and equine sports. There are also requests for an iPad app and an Android app, as well as features for JUCO transfers.R5R6R14R17

Who it's for

FieldLevel is for high school athletes looking to play sports in college and connect with college coaches, especially those in NCAA-sanctioned sports listed by the developer R2R3. It's also for high school and college coaches seeking to recruit athletes and manage their rosters efficiently R18R53R54. It is not ideal for athletes in niche or non-NCAA sports not currently supported, or for users who are unwilling to pay for premium features to unlock full functionality R14R15.

Evidence note: The recent review sample skews negative due to numerous reports of app stability issues, despite the lifetime rating being very high. The developer's last update was 21.4 months ago, which aligns with the reported lack of fixes for these persistent bugs. The positive reviews are strong in their praise for the platform's core functionality in recruitment.

  1. [R1] 5/5 · US Outstanding Baseball tools and App: Our experience with FieldLevel has been outstanding. The platform opened doors we never expected and connected Daniel with many colleges, coaches, and programs we might not have found otherwise. FieldLevel is much more than just creating a profile. To get the most out of it, you need to stay engaged. Keep your videos up to date, complete your profile, respond to
  2. [R3] 5/5 · US COMMITTED!: Thank you FieldLevel for giving me the opportunity to talk with college coaches, allowing them to notice me, and helping me match a school that best suited me! My journey has been awesome but you guys have made it even better!
  3. [R11] 5/5 · US Love the App!!!: I was curious about if this will work or not, how ever they make it so economical that’s it was worth a shot. And it worked my son was able to get attention and get a commitment on his senior year of hs. Highly recommend FieldLevel 5 stars in my book. Thank you FieldLevel for helping us…
  4. [R35] 5/5 · US Incredible: This app allows me to get way more exposure to colleges that are the right fit for me. Thought it was a scam at first because it seemed too good to be true but I’m so happy I signed up because IT WORKS!!!!!!!
  5. [R7] 5/5 · US Excellent exposure: Thank you for providing a great platform to showcase our athletes and easily connect them with college coaches. We’ve used other platforms and FieldLevel is by far the best in terms of features, exposure and affordability.
  6. [R9] 5/5 · US amazing app: i wouldn’t have gotten to the level i am without this app. field level has allowed me so much exposure. i can’t say enough
  7. [R12] 5/5 · US Great app: I’ve spoken to hundreds of coaches, athletes, and parents who’ve used the app to get opportunities to continue their careers in college
  8. [R22] 5/5 · US Great opportunity to be seen by college coaches: Field Level definitely provided a great opportunity to be seen by college baseball coaches from around the country and the network coaches have among one another. My recruitment would never have been as wide using traditional in person scouting or attending skills camp after camp. I was able to provide actual game film and my current and former coac
  9. [R4] 5/5 · US 10x what NCSA offers: This is the BEST college recruiting service available on the App Store. Hands down, I got more real interest from here compared to anywhere else
  10. [R55] 5/5 · CA Infinitely better then NCSA or any other app: It’s affordable, it got me college offers. It’s also nice to be able too opt out whenever. Thank you for this service.
  11. [R18] 5/5 · US Current College Coach: As a college coach, this app is huge. Our staff can identify potential prospects a lot easier and it helps us decide which players to check out in person. One of the best parts is the ability to quickly access a recruit’s contact info. The updates over the years have also been great such as being able to directly message athletes and have athletes be able to see the recruiti
  12. [R52] 5/5 · US coaches love this app!!: This app has been so helpful to our department. The coaches love that the name of any contact in their network shows up up when that person calls! I can't imagine logging calls the way we used to. Way to go FieldLevel!
  13. [R53] 5/5 · US Every coach needs this app: FieldLevel is an amazing free way for me to manage my roster and lets my kids maintain their data. I use it to recruit athletes from my coaching network because they are all on there already. Can't believe I didn't start using this earlier. Great work guys! Amazing that it's free!
  14. [R54] 5/5 · US My recruiting is way more efficient!: It's so helpful having all my prospects on my phone. The logging is great too.
  15. [R13] 5/5 · US Great customer service: I was having issues and the service team went above and beyond to fix this.
  16. [R23] 2/5 · US Never Works on iPhone: I give this a 2 because when it does work it’s nice. But I’m sick and tired of having to email the company to resolve glitches just to log into the app. I am a college coach and this is extremely frustrating as I use the app on my phone 90% vs the compute 10%. I am always on the go but being able to log in is completely unreliable. Too bad. Great idea. Need to invest in the
  17. [R27] 2/5 · US Stability Concern: I’m on an iPhone 11. Intermittently it will not load and say “Something went wrong. We have been notified” then “Back to the app”. It doesn’t go “back” to anything. I can’t seem to trouble shoot correctly bc nothing works and I never know when it will happen or start working again. Frustrating. When it works…I love it.
  18. [R30] 3/5 · US Squash some bugs!: It’s great when it works but has been crashing a lot lately. So frustrating!
  19. [R33] 4/5 · US Crashing: This app continues to crash regardless of the fact I rebooted my phone - redownloaded the app etc. nothing seems to work. It opens up, then automatically shuts down.
  20. [R15] 3/5 · US It’s okay: It’s good but why do you have to pay 30 dollars to contact the college and see if there interested in you I find that kind of a rip off
  21. [R31] 3/5 · US It’s 50/50: I like the app, I think the concept and everything about it is really helpful for high school athletes. The only thing I would say is that field level premium is way to much money, it’s nice being able to see that colleges are looking at you. But at the same time how am I supposed to know what colleges are looking at me unless I pay the 39$ a month which seems a little high in price. O
  22. [R20] 1/5 · US $50 for Video compression: For $50 a month, our 4k videos should not be getting compressed. We should be able to upload and view videos in the quality that we choose. This is totally unacceptable.
  23. [R5] 5/5 · US Good but wish I could say JUCO VS HS: I love the app and I’ve now been able to commit thanks to it although I wish I could say I’m now a 28 JUCO transfer instead of a 26 highschool grad
  24. [R6] 5/5 · US Love it absolutely! But one thing……: I LOVE this app, but there is one thing, I also do horse riding and I think it would also be great if there was equine colleges in there, I just think it would be great too, so that other equine riders can use this app too. especially since Field hockey is a backup plan, but I do field hockey for fun. Though I know this is called FieldLevel for a reason, becaus
  25. [R14] 1/5 · US No womens bowling: Come on Already probably the fastest growing sport in college for young women is bowling but not according to this app. Oh well RecruitUS is way ahead of all of these apps go their if you want you son or daughter to bowl in college
  26. [R17] 4/5 · US good app: doesn’t have wrestling 😓
  27. [R34] 3/5 · US Eh: I appreciate the app and all but you shouldn’t need a coach, especially if your coach doesn’t want to download the app.
  28. [R28] 4/5 · US Update more frequently: Updating the coaches can be helpful
  29. [R32] 5/5 · US Great app: I love this app, as an athlete it’s easy to set up but they just need to update the coach’s for some schools. Like my high school (San Juan Hills High School, CA) changed football coaches my senior year so when I joined it was under a different coach (rob frith) and not the same coach (coach flowers) from the three years before. I also was wondering how to keep my hometown, because I wa
  30. [R41] 5/5 · US No love for android.....: I love the app, it's has really been helpful to me & I just started using it a few weeks ago. The only problem is that my head coach tried to download it but, couldn't find it nor does it say online that there is an app for android phones.
  31. [R51] 4/5 · US Where's iPad App?!: It's great in many ways. However, With a lot of college coaches using iPads, it needs to have an iPad app. I wish the app allowed you to access more info thats on the actual website. Overall, a great tool.
  32. [R24] 4/5 · US Love the Platform: Love the platform but I feel like I am constantly running into issues where things won’t load recently. I then get the “sorry for the inconvenience” error message. When everything is working smoothly though there isn’t a better platform for connecting my student-athletes to college coaches.
  33. [R25] 4/5 · US Love the App…when it works.: This is an awesome App for athletes! My only issue is after I move away from app, if I go back? Blank screen. Only way to get back is restarting phone.
  34. [R2] 5/5 · US Great app for athletes: Schools post kids who are interested respond . Fantastic for kids looking to pursue sports after high school .
  35. [R26] 5/5 · US More sports: The app seems great but the thing is that I don’t see my sport, which is wrestling. Just wish it could add it so I can use it.
