Play Ball Lineup - Youth Baseball and Softball Lineup Maker

I got this app hoping it would help with managing the lineups, but after you spend all the time entering names etc., when you try to print the lineup, you can only see half of it! There is a big black box that covers half of the lineup card. If not for this, I think this would have been a good app. I did receive an email from them about a “work around” that involved PowerPoint. The email response was quite prompt as well.

I’ve watched the videos, read the faq’s. Tried six times, entered team info, skill levels, all the stuff. Still cannot access the “generate lineup” screen. Went to “Contact” tab and it doesn’t work. Went to website and the “Send us a Message” screen takes input but doesn’t have a submit or send button. Hard Fail.

I wish I could get my $5 back. Promising concept and features but the app suffers from several deficits: 1) Screens pop back and forth, in and out of where you want to be, resulting in a confusing and frustrating experience 2) the apps user interface is not intuitive. For one, it forces landscape mode and the various pop up boxes for entering data cover the field you are entering so editing data is blind. Also, the fields themselves are not always clear, esp on the player lineup where there are fields/boxes for entering data that are barely visible. 3) I finally fought my way through getting the team setup and the players with their skills listed, only to find that the function I purchased the app for, creating a lineup, is not working. Spent money and a significant amount of time only to abandon and delete the app. Best way to describe is that this looks like it was designed 10 years ago for the iPad and has not been properly updated or supported since.

I can’t get passed the first page

It kicked me out every few minutes!!! So frustrating!

Ugh. I wish I read the reviews/closer. Last app update was 8 years ago. No longer works.

This looked to be the best app for our 8U team. Certain players are right for certain positions during different parts of the season, and this app allows you to enter those. However, when I try to adjust the number of innings each player is going to play to balance things out, the total will not update and will therefore not generate a lineup. To make things worse, there is no email to contact, and the contact form has an error so I’m hoping they see my review and can help.

As an instructional level team manager this app was super helpful, only problem is when I export the line up, the bottom half shows up on my phone as black. I had to screen shot it and print it out that way.

App doesn’t work vertically on phone. Makes it extremely difficult to add names of players - can’t see what your typing. Overall not impressed at all. I’m a travel ball coach, LL president and instructor and I was looking for something to use for my league. Definitely not it

App works really well, however when you export the lineup with positions each inning, it puts a big black box Over half of the roster. Workaround is to create a excel file and manually update it.
