It's one of those things you didn't know you wanted until you see it. We added video review tracking! If your league uses video challenges, you can now record the reason, track the outcome, and keep everything in the official match record. Enable it in your match options. Ever had a team that just couldn't field enough players? VolleyRef now picks up on that automatically and walks you through the forfeit process.

Things should just feel more solid all around. As always, thanks for reffing with us! Drop us a review if you're loving the app, it really helps.
