Breakthrough Stats 4+

Great App! Support Team is helpful as well!

I had what I considered a bug with the app awhile back and the support team contacted me and got a fix out for it soon after. Can’t say enough good things about the app.

My only request would be, maybe adding a multi-game deletion in the seasons/games tab. I generally have a lot of games from various tournaments and it takes a large amount of time to go in and delete each game individually. Maybe there is an option for this already, but I have not been able to find it if there is.

Thanks for such a wonderful app 🔥🔥🔥

Developer Response ,

Can you please contact us again like you did a few days ago. We sent 2 emails to you with a discussion of the issue, but have not heard back from you. Please check your junk or spam mailboxes to see if our emails went there. Thanks.

Philosophy92, we haven't been able to recreate the problem you are reporting so would like more details. In the app, please go to About then Contact and send us a message. That way App Support can get the information from you and try to solve this issue. Thanks.

By the way, we have just been given the ability to reply to messages such as yours by Apple so this is the first we have been able to reply.

Tracks a lot of data...

This is an updated review given developer feedback.

Over the past few weeks, I have used several basketball data tracking apps and this one definitely tracks the most statistics. Setting things up takes a little practice (not quite as intuitive as some of the other apps I have used in that you need to set up not only your team, but also an opposing team). The one thing that I was not thrilled about was the requirement to register the app in order to see the reports. (At the time, I did not have internet access, so I was not able to review my data after the game. They also had a server problem that would not allow me to register the app, which has since been fixed.)

This app costs about twice as much as the other one I was using. It does track more data, but I am not yet sure if the premium was worth it. Time will tell...

Developer Response ,

Thanks for your feedback.

First, let me assure you that you can generate reports and view them on your device without having internet access. The only time you must have internet access is the very first time you run a report. At that time you must register the app. After you register you won't be required to have internet access to run a report and you will be able to view the reports on your device. If you haven't gone through the registration process, please do so by running any report and following the registration process. If you are getting an error message while trying to register, please give us that error message. The fastest way to get the error message to support is to use the Contact button on the About page of the app. That will come directly to support. If whatever is causing you to receive an error message prevents you from using the Contact button, just email the error message and any other helpful information to appsupport@breakthroughbasketball.com.

By the way, we never see any of your data or reports. All of the data and the report generation is done on your device and does not require an internet connection to do so. You can (don't have to) run a report and then export (email) to anyone you wish. Of course, that will require an internet connection.

Following is some information that will help when trying to export and email a report.

The Mail account that Apple provides on your iPad/iPhone must be set up because our app uses that email account to send the reports to you. So, make sure it is set up and functioning correctly. Note that if you use a browser for your email, like with Gmail, you still have to set up the Mail account that is provided with your iPad/iPhone. Of course, make sure that the “To” email address is correct. Also, make sure you have internet access when you send the email.

To set up the Mail account:
Find the Settings icon on your iPad/iPhone and tap it.
Scroll down and tap Accounts & Passwords (On older versions of iOS tap on Mail which may be combined with Contacts, Calendars).
Tap Add Account.
Follow the instructions to set up the email account that you normally use.

If you have your Mail account set up and the reports still aren’t working, go into the Mail app on your device and try sending an email to yourself. If that doesn’t work, there is still something set up wrong in your Mail account. You might try deleting the Mail account and setting it up again.

If you don't have Apple's Mail app on your iPad/iPhone make sure you download it from the App Store as it is necessary for emailing from our app to work correctly. Without the app the Send button will be grayed out.

We’ve also had customers report that the storage on their device was almost full and that prevented the Mail account from functioning correctly. In that case, you should delete some of the unused apps to free up storage space.

Hope that helps. If you need further assistance, please let us know.

Way too much info

I have to admit, this looks like an awesome app but holy cow, it is very difficult to keep up in a game situation. Trying to keep track of the clock, substitutions, shots, misses, rebounds, fouls and then back to the clock. It was really hard.

I understand you can turn the game clock on and off and if I use the app again (and that is a big if), I am going to turn the game clock off as that really isnt important to me but what really is hard is just keeping track of who is in and who is out, especially when there are multiple substitutions on both teams. I think it would be good if we just had a roster of the team and could click on any of the players instead of trying to keep track of who is in or out.

Ended up creating a spreadsheet that I think I will probably utilize more than I can use this program which is disappointing considering I spent 20 bucks on the app.
