1. [R12] SportsEngine 3/5 · US It is ok.: The app is like most other sports apps. The one exception being that you can’t track game stats for all sports.
2. [R42] SportsEngine 4/5 · US Updated review: missing some key features: After having used this app for a few months, there a few features comparable apps have but this one doesn’t. The two I’ll call out are: * Filtering calendar by event type (game, practice, etc) * Notifications when events are added or updates These features are table stakes, , , , , Solid app, particularly when dealing with multiple youth teams. Ads
3. [R66] TeamSnap 3/5 · US Make this easier: We love TeamSnap, however, it is a real pain when you have to create a new chat every time a new person is added to the team. Or create a new chat when the team changes at all. You should be able to add remove members to an existing chat.
4. [R69] TeamSnap 3/5 · US Love the app!! Would great to fix the chat features: I love using this app for my sons’ travel team…the only thing is the chat feature. Whenever we need to add a player’s family member an entirely new chat has to be created, which is really frustrating. We have considered as a group going to a different platform entirely just because of how frustrating this lack of adding or subtracting people in
5. [R10] SportsEngine 1/5 · US Not user friendly: Not user friendly. Everything about the team should be here but it’s hard to find especially the schedule. Very frustrating!!!!
6. [R19] SportsEngine 1/5 · US Very confusing: I’ve used this app for a couple years and it’s awful. It’s very difficult and cumbersome to navigate. like the app was written by a third grader with a crayon.
7. [R79] TeamSnap 1/5 · US Do the 5 star people not use any other apps?: This app is atrocious. It is so poorly designed. Using it feels like I’m going back to the days of “designer” software of the early 2000s. It found a market and doesn’t have enough competition. It’s a cash grab as most of us HAVE to use it for sports and aren’t gonna pay for it. I see more ads than useful content. Even if there weren’t all the ads, nav
8. [R112] TeamSnap 1/5 · US Ads annoying: Difficult to use - ads are super annoying, they hide the X to close the ads. And the ads are irrelevant.
9. [R1] SportsEngine 2/5 · US Do not like: Constantly freezes up or closes out by itself. I’ve used a lot of sports apps and I find this one to be one of the worst
10. [R28] SportsEngine 1/5 · US App keeps crashing: The app keeps crashing even after a recent update.
11. [R99] TeamSnap 3/5 · US Bugs: Problem with the chat function for more than a week or so.
12. [R106] TeamSnap 2/5 · US Frustrating: This app locks up all the the time. It is slow. Kicks me off CarPlay. I dread anytime I get a notification because it is just going to lock everything up.
13. [R21] SportsEngine 3/5 · US Decent: Good app except the ads are annoying
14. [R49] SportsEngine 2/5 · US Too many ads: I’m just trying to get the game schedules for grandchildren. I have no objection to one or two ads but they come on and will not go away. Not user friendly.
15. [R70] TeamSnap 1/5 · US Fake 7 day free trial: I signed up for this as a requirement for a group and wanted to change plans after the 7 day trial. But apparently you have to quit the 7 day trial at 5 or 6 days and now I’m stuck with a year of an app I don’t want.
16. [R73] TeamSnap 2/5 · US Use only because I have to: Too many ads. High fees for payments.
17. [R36] SportsEngine 3/5 · US App Has Been Great Until Now: I’ve used this app now for 3 years and have had no issues with it opening or crashing until the past 1.5 months. It’s a great resource to stay in the know with the sports teams in which my kids are involved, but this disruption the second time around is annoying! And I’m now bugging (no pun intended) other parents for info that I expect to see when I open the app. I d
18. [R41] SportsEngine 1/5 · US Glitchy/Garbage: Incredible how nothing functions smoothly or at all in almost a decade of being forced to use this app for my kids association based sport activities. Someone who works for the app’s parent company must bribe someone in our association. Parents immediately use other apps for chatting purposes. Synchronizes schedules inaccuratly and unreliably. I never review any apps, ever. Howeve
19. [R97] TeamSnap 1/5 · US Don’t use: Do not use this app, customer service is horrible and even after deleting and asking them to remove all information you will still get charged. Then they do not want to refund your account even with pictures of the charges they charged you after deleting your account. Do not use this app, it is a mess and you’ll have to change all your bank information just to keep from being charged ev
20. [R100] TeamSnap 2/5 · US Egregious ad placement: Navigating this app is a nightmare purely because of the amount of ads and pop ups. The interface exists only for ad placement and user friendliness was never a consideration during the design process
