Basketball Simple Stats Keeper 4+

UPDATE- After posting my previous review the app developer not only responded but also made some changes based on the review. I appreciate the responsiveness and am looking forward to next weekend’s games to try out the new version of this app. It looks great, so much clearer than the all orange layout. Thank you Rylan for your consideration and willingness to make additional changes.
PREVIOUS REVIEW: I have been using this app for a couple of years and I really liked it. But the latest update is terrible. Everything is orange which makes it very hard to glance down and hit the right button. Also the misses and makes are reversed from how they used to be. The older version of the app was much easier to read and having red for misses and green for makes made it easy to glance down and hit the right button. Please consider changing up the color scheme. This all orange thing just doesn’t work.

Thanks for the feedback. I’m sorry for your frustration. I actually agree with you. I made a change over the weekend. I have reverted back the red and green buttons for makes and misses. However, the reason for them being reversed was because mathematically it made more sense having it match the formula being displayed. For example, 2 made / 4 total attempts = 50%. I hope you don’t mind the makes on the left now. Good idea, having me switch the colors back to red and green. Thanks. Please consider leaving an updated review. It helps others find and use the app with more 5 star reviews. Enjoy.

The developer, just added a stop watch feature. I love it! Nice work.

My kids love it when I pay attention to their games and keep their stats. This is levels above keeping stats on the back of a receipt from my purse, which is what I was doing before I found this app. I love the easy send feature at the end of the game. I text stats to my kids, who enjoy looking over them and in turn send them to family members and friends. My oldest is a high school senior hoping to play basketball in college. We have sent her stats to college recruiters. It looks so professional. Very organized!

Thank you for wonderful feedback. I hope your daughter makes onto a college team! Enjoy the app.

UPDATE: so I’ve been using the updated app and have found it almost there. Being able to track multiple games and track core stats has been added! It does come at a pretty steep subscription price comparatively. That said, it’s worth supporting indie developers if you can afford it, and this is an attractive app.

I have found multiple issues with the season stat reporting though, so be careful just relying on the overall card. For example, it’s reporting way more 3pt shots than my kid has taken/made. When I go and try to edit the game stats, it says it saves it but when I go back in the wrong data has returned. It’s also not calculating the w/l records correctly.

On the plus side I did report to the developer on a bug and he responded right away that a fix was coming. I’m going to hold off a bit longer until the stats reporting and background math get figured out. END UPDATE

I’ve enjoyed playing around with this app, but haven’t used in a game yet. I’ve used another app that has been pretty good, but I’m really pulling for this one because it can just track my kid with the core stat categories. The ability to save all the games is essential, and is apparently under construction which is GREAT news. Ability to track minutes and chart shots would be great. Looking forward to the future release to start tracking the 7th grade season!

Thanks for downloading and providing feedback. This week, I just released a fix for the 2pts counting 3pts when editing games. You can now edit any previous game without issues and correct any game that got messed up with the bug. Thanks for catching the bug and reporting it.

Please consider updating your review after you download V3.2.0. Thanks again!
