## Review summary

RunYourPool is easy to use, but reviews repeatedly cite a pay-to-play pricing model with hidden fees, reliability issues during peak times, and a poor in-app login flow that forces browser redirects. Feature gaps and pricing confusion also drive discontent, leading many to consider alternatives. The app remains favored by some for casual, small pools due to its simplicity, but persistent issues undermine overall value.

### Pros

- Easy to use and quick to enter picks.
- Longstanding, familiar app that many users rely on for casual pools.
- Simple interface that helps with running a pool and tracking picks.

### Cons

- Hidden or mandatory fees and a pay-to-play model, with multiple reviews describing hidden charges and paywalls.
- Frequent reliability problems, including slow loading, outages, and being blocked during major events.
- In-app login flow often redirects to a browser, creating a poor user experience and extra steps to sign in.
- Missing features and pricing confusion (eg. lack of moneyline odds or in-app messaging, and perceived misleading pricing or free-versus-paid options).
