SubTime: Playing time tracking

2nd update (9/26) - confirmed all fixed, and the developer worked quickly to make the changes. Back to 5 starts, and continuing to recommend this to other coaches. Update - I just upgraded to the iPhone 11 pro max and the app no longer opens. Unfortunately tomorrow is game day, so I hope this gets resolved quickly. ****** I love this app! It is a huge help for tracking playing time for soccer. Recent improvements like adding score tracking, etc are great. That said, there are a few things that are needed which have caused real problems for me recently. First, Tracking the score, including which kid scored and who assisted is great, but it would be great to have the ability to edit this information during the game. There have been a few times where I forgot to add the person with the assist and could not find a way to correct it later. Second, and this is an important one, DO NOT LEAVE THE GAME SCREEN (by swiping left) before the game is completed. If you do, you will lose all the information from that game. This happened to me recently when I tried to find a way to edit a previous goal (see above) and I lost the entire timing for the game, making it useless to track the rest of the game. That needs to be fixed ASAP. I already recommend this app to other soccer coaches I know, but these minor improvement would be really helpful. Thanks

I needed to track subs for soccer games badly without complex clutter all over screen. In the heat of a game simple is king. Looked at even learning to program and build one because nothing was intuitive, simple, and done the job well visually and intuitively. Tried several. This app is awesome, keep up the good work! Keep it simple and don’t over complicate like all these other soccer apps. Please consider these additions: tapping a player pops up a simple sub menu that lets you tally custom tracking stats for player, nothing fancy. Too much complexity makes it impossible to use during heat of the game. Just maybe a +\- button on 4 categories. For example: goal, shot on goal, good pass, good tackle, assist. Things like this. Maybe let user create whatever they want for each to track. This would then be logged with game history. Thank you again for your efforts and I’m here to support your future efforts! Keep it up!

Love it and use it in games. It’s simplicity is perfect, but would like to see a few minor tweaks. Suggested improvements: 1. Have an option for auto pause at halftime and game in. This could be toggled in settings for those that want auto pause. 2. Need an indicator for when I forget to sub at the planned interval. The sub time indicator turns orange 30 seconds before the planned time the red 5 seconds before. Then it resets to the next interval. If I’m busy coaching during that 30 seconds I could miss the orange/red indicator and forget to sub. Would like some big indicator to say “hey! The last sub interval passed and you haven’t subbed Yet!!!” 3. The sub plan interface is confusing. Currently, it moves the player on the field to the bench. Puts the bench player to the field and puts the same color circles around both players. But the player now on the bench has their name in the circle and above their circle. ??? Don’t understand what the intent is there. Would rather see the current player still listed as on field with name of person coming in for them below the circle, same color circle for both players and the player going in still on bench, but put the name of the player they’re going in for above the circle. All, in all though, this is a great app!

I coach my Son's first grade team in a park district league that plays 4 on 4 with teams of 8. The league really wants us to let each kid play about half the time. I sub 1 or 2 players at a time opportunistically. It's hard to stick to a substitution plan when there is always an unexpected absence. Apart from a gut feel for how much time each kid has played, I really lose track. When I make a sub on the field, This app lets me quickly glance down and swipe that player's icon from the sideline into an on filed position and it automatically moves the player who was in that position out to the sideline. It keeps a running clock of cumulative play time for each kid and a clock of time since their last sub in or out. It also lets you change positions on the field in real time, but that is overkill for my needs. Perfect. Thanks for creating this.

This app is a great help to me as it ensures I provide relatively equal playing time for 11 noisy boys jockeying for only 5 positions on the futsal court. The new functionality to record goals and notes is helpful, but it seems I can no longer bring players who show up late (originally marked absent) back into the game as I could before. Could you please add this functionality back? It happens all the time and makes it super hard to balance playing time when I have a late arrival. I can sort of work around it by never marking anyone absent, but then it throws off the average playing time calculation. Thanks!
