## Review summary

The app is easy to learn and great for designing and practicing plays, and it helps coaches organize and remember plays. However, major downsides include a poorly functioning or misleading sharing feature that requires everyone to buy premium, plus cross-device syncing problems. Customer support and refunds are also frequently cited as insufficient. Overall, a strong design tool hampered by sharing, syncing, and support issues.

### Pros

- Easy-to-use, simple interface
- Strong design/visualization capabilities for plays
- Helpful for coaching, practice, and remembering plays
- Clear, straightforward workflow compared to more complex options

### Cons

- Sharing with the team is broken or misleading; all players must buy premium to view shared plays
- Paywall/required premium access for team collaboration isn’t clearly explained and hampers usability
- Cross-device syncing/loading issues; shared plays don’t appear on other devices or for assistant coaches
- Poor customer support and refund process; difficult to contact and resolve issues
