Amazing!could not be any better!
This is a great app!something you should totally check out. App has very modern settings!Thank you PlayMetrics.
Terrible
Get better at player RSVPing. Just look at other apps and copy their format.
Font size
It’s a good app. It just needs the ability to make the font bigger for us older parents who don’t have the eye site we used to. Please give us the ability to make the font bigger or zoom in.
It’s Adequate … Barely
Good software is defined by functionality & this app is not very functional. For instance, for a child that’s been playing for years, how does a parent delete the old teams that clutter up the interface? For reasonable questions like this & others, the app’s answer is: you cannot.
Fan opinion needed
Need to add a function to allow fans or other family to share game schedules. GameChanger app has this feature and it nice not to have to do double work by adding grandma’s and grandpa‘s to extra calendar invite separately or listing them out in text messages. They’re also notified if game details change.
Good
Good
Poorly constructed app
For the pricey platform service fees PlayMetrics charges, you’d think they would overhaul their app and make it more user friendly. It is hard to navigate (drill up/drill down), time consuming to clear notification badges and mark messages as read, etc etc. And like another user posted, you read a notification message and the app closes completely. Nor does the reading the notification mark the message as “read”. You have to read it again to clear the new message alert.
Please Add Day-Of Status Update Option
Playmetrics is a decent app overall and works fine for managing schedules and communication. However, one frustration is the inability to easily update my child’s status for games or practices on the same day. This makes it a real pain when last-minute changes come up. Please fix this feature—it would make the app much more parent-friendly.
No notifications
I agree with the previous review. I never get notifications, and when I go to the app itself, it always says there are unread messages no matter what.
iPhone interface issues
Overall a decent app, but consistently the functionality and interface doesn’t work well on phone app. An example- you frequently can’t see what you’re typing on iPhone but it’s fine on iPad app version. Just doesn’t seem to have proper software for phone use. And a recent update made it worse. Small but easily fixed item…when you’re using the Calendar on future events, every time you close that future entry it goes back to the current date so then you have scroll back down to future items if you have multiple things to enter. All that said, it’s the best of the team management apps I’ve used. 4 stars if you would fix all the mobile issues.
Holy Game Changer
This app has made my life a whole lot easier when it come to operating my volleyball club. Everything I need from reviewing payments to confirming schedules, and communicating the information our all directly on my phone. My parents love the ease of it, and best of all, this is the only app we use.
Won’t load
It worked for a while but now it won’t load at all so I am missing communications from the club and team.
Can’t type in chat and see it.
Not great, new season and I can’t see what I am typing in my team chat. Very subpar.
Has authentication problems
The app itself is decent. My main gripe with the iOS app is that it frequently has session authentication problems. As a user I shouldn’t constantly see these auth errors for invalid sessions and timeouts. Just update all of that behind the scenes please.
Game Changing App
Wow, I can do everything I need for my club directly on my phone, on the go. My parents find it easy to use and love not having to use multiple systems
Cant update fields
Horrible app, you can update the fields and set up a new location update date an event changes the whole schedule due to weather. Horrible app of you cant use the mobile app to make changes on the spot
Could be Better
Make it so you can sync the app’s calendar with your phone’s calendar.
Notifications are off
This app is just ok. The latest updates won’t clear the notifications even after every message and chat has been looked at
Meant for club use not player/family friendly
**newest gripe-my iPad shows a continuous notification, logged in and out, went through emails and chats more than once, deleting old emails or non-important emails, rotated iPad and did all the above again, finally deleted the app but was hoping a year later things would be working well, nope, same problem again, constant notification. Same texting issue, bounces around, small box, this is 100% for clubs NOT players and families**Been using this app since March. From a parent stand point it is a big nope from me. Constantly reloading, logged out, when I click ‘view all’ under the calendar it takes me back to day one…lots of scrolling and clicking around. I see why clubs use this, it’s a one stop shop for them, I get that. Messaging or chatting needs revamping, the box is small, once you type a sentence or two you have to scroll up to read it from the top, why can’t the box continue to enlarge as I type?? Seems really outdated. Then I can’t tell if people get the actual message unless they respond, after sending the message it looks like it didn’t send, I then have to shut down the app and reopen it to see if the message sent. I was my daughters team manager last season and that was so SO annoying. Put a thumbs up option for sent messages please and fix the box. I like that I can see the entire day, I see uniform color, time, field number, any notes typed in…that is sweet for sure! I like that I can filter the app to show JUST one schedule instead of 3 mixed together. In the end this app is glitchy and more work than other apps we have used. Clubs will love this app! FYI-playmetrics support staff is OUTSTANDING, many people had trouble creating accounts, I would have to defer them to the support link, everyone that used them had great things to say, I used them once and the issue was resolved fast.
Unintuitive
I almost never write reviews but I found this one so unintuitive that the frustration has motivated me to write one. I know the roster for the team is available in the app because I have seen it, but every time I try to view it seems like it takes a minute or two to figure out how to get there. Quite annoying!
Could be better
We moved over to this app after using another sports app for years. It’s okay but it logs you out constantly and the biggest complaint from most parents is we can see who is coming to the games/practices. It’s only a very select few. That update would be amazing!!!
Frustrating notifications
When you get several notifications and open the app to read all messages, the notifications still remain on the phone, so you need to manually clear them every time. Also, within the app, no matter if you read all chat conversations and all messages on the inbox, you always get a badge saying there are new messages. Finally, when opening a phone notification, it only opens the one message, if you close it, it closes the whole app
Notification Suggestion
The app makers should add a notification feature that allows you to turn off notifications related to messages from other parents sent to the group chat while keeping notifications on for messages from the coach. I have missed important coach notifications because I’m bombarded with notifications about messages from parents.
Message notifications broken
Constantly says I have a message. But I don’t. Won’t clear. Super annoying. Most people I’ve shown also have same thing. FIX IT
Worst management software ever
PlayMetrics looks polished, but the experience has been extremely unreliable. Funds continue to be collected while access to payouts is unclear or delayed—creating real risk for any organization managing payroll and operations. Customer support is essentially nonexistent. There’s no phone support, only email, and responses can take 48+ hours if you’re lucky. On top of that, we were assigned a random admin unfamiliar with our account, making even basic issues difficult to resolve. If your business depends on consistent cash flow and responsive support, this is not a platform you can rely on.
Crashes and won’t allow setting attendance day of event
This crashes more than Tiger Woods.
Not a great experience
This app really is a struggle to use sometimes. The chat feature is super bare bones and often scrolls up when typing so you can’t see what you’re writing. You can’t add links, you can’t really do much. The scheduling stuff works well, but communication is challenging. Most annoying, and what’s prompting me to write this review, is that I have 4 badge notifications that won’t go away. I don’t have any unread messages, but they will not clear. Drives me nuts. I have to disable badges, but then I miss messages.
Font size
Can you please put the font back to normal. Stuff doesn’t even fit on the screen.
No log out
No dedicated log out
Great app but with annoying bugs
This app is very useful for keeping track of our team’s schedule, and being notified immediately of any changes. However, there are two bugs which drive me crazy and lower my score. First, any time you tap on an iOS notification that opens the app, the app will crash when you try to leave the page after reading the message 100% of the time. Second, for months my inbox says I have an unread message, but I scroll through all of them and they are all already marked as read. The new message icon will not go away. Perhaps a “mark all as read” button would fix this, if there was one to press.
TeamSnap is better
This app consistently kicks you off on your phone and you need to log back in. Interface is not user-friendly. The chat feature Is clumsy and not quick to use. My team went from TeamSnap to this, and I wish we could go back to TeamSnap. This app needs major improvement in many areas. Please get better.
Clunky
I like having my kids soccer information, group chats, schedules, etc in one place. I wish there were some changes. 1. Notifications show up in multiple places. I do not need a Notification Center in the app. It is redundant. The chat/email is plenty but looking through that and having a Notification Center is completely unnecessary and frustrating when you have notifications multiple times for one small thing. 2. I will click a notification on my phone and it opens the app to the last place I was in the app. For example, I get a chat notification for one child and I open it. It goes to a different chat for another team and it doesn’t automatically refresh that page. You have to close the app and then open, go to the home page and then go and figure out what chat you had a notification in. It is as user friendly as an 2015 era app. 3. Nothing automatically refreshes. You constantly have to go to the home screen and often close the app to get it to refresh. 4. This is the slowest app I use regularly. I would love updates to make this app user friendly. I do love having all our family soccer information one place but this app is very low functioning in 2025.
Needs some serious adjustments
The main issue is if you click on a link in a chat it opens in the apps browser but there is no way to close it. You have to completely close the app and restart it. Next the download for attachment does not work. One more item is there is no way to access the team documents through the app you have to open PlayMetrics in a web browser.
Worst and worst with time
Constants bugs, issues with sending messages, freeze screens. It was better before now it is going downhill…
Firebase errors everywhere
Can you please fix the firebase auth API errors and add a close button to the internal browser or just remove the internal browser, people need to kill the app just to exit the integrated browser that has no features at all. Very buggy app. Can see how you convinced so many clubs to use your bugggggggy app.
Login Quirks + No iOS Badge
After a week of use I feel like it’s pretty good but I find most of the time I launch the app I have to log in again. Login quirk is biggest con. Having a more natural “back” flow - perhaps with left swipe gestures on iPhone - would be nice. Second iOS quirk is that there are no iOS badges for pending unread team chat messages. This is critical.
