Ratings and Reviews
Great Garmin integration
Got this for the Watch app and I’ve been pleasantly surprised. Easy to use on the watch and it tracks the activity. The watch app can crash every once in a while if you get out of the match (like for a notification at half time). Once I figured that out I don’t get out of the app at halftime and it’s fine. If they fix that it would be 5 stars.
I’m excited about the basic version as I’m just a grassroots ref and the advanced features weren’t very useful to me but the different timers are. I wish they had a full year option basic.
Developer Response ,
That's awesome, thanks for the review! Get in touch with our support team about the app crashing as this may be a bug - contact@refsix.com. We'd love to get that sorted for you and anyone else it affects! We can also discuss plan options for Basic, as it's only in test at the moment, but we'd love to make it work for you!
Excellent book replacement!
Update: this app continues to improve, including better visibility and eliminating the need to enter rosters in advance. I’m up past 100 games, and it’s my go-to in all kinds of weather. The REFSIX team is very responsive to suggestions as well.
I’ve used the app for a dozen games and am very satisfied, though as others have pointed out, it’s most useful when you can get a roster well ahead of kick off. I’ve found that knowing I’m going to see my running stats and heat map has improved my coverage including going deeper into the corners and PA. A couple of additional features would have me thrilled: (1) a way to import and save/edit rosters for future games, 2) a way to export the game data (.txt, .csv) to make electronic game report submissions easier., and 3) an option for making voice annotations for game incidents (e.g., injuries, cards). But for $6/month I’ll definitely keep using it!
Love everything but not perfect
I love everything about this app!!! However there are a few key fixtures that I would like to have added.
First will be in line with Fitness history. I would love to see an average distance ran per match to include total career distance. Heart rate should also be included in that fitness data as such approx calorie expenditure.
Second would be the heat map. Though it is a great idea... I would like to be able to move the map circle. Currently the imagery is not very accurate and I have to guess where to place my points for the heat map.
My only gripe with the heatmap is that I do not believe it is very accurate. Within the stats I tend to see missing times in between the distance covered and total distance covered. My Fitbit tells me I cover approx 5.5 miles per game, but the red six will tell me 2.5Km (less than 2 miles). Significant drop off. Additionally the stats for the walking/jogging is also inaccurate. Normally I only walk during stoppages, so to say most of movement is walking is incorrect.
A way to take a picture and have the names automatically inputted it would be a sure fire way to bring this app over the top!!!
I’m still waiting to try out this new version release.....
Developer Response ,
Thanks for taking the time to feedback. A significant difference in the distance like that can suggest that your Location permissions aren't set correctly. Please ensure REFSIX has 'Always' location permission, if not when the watch screen goes off it may stop recording. Feel free to contact us through the app feedback page if you need any more help.
