It’s super easy to use. Keeps your score, penalty count and even allows you to record yellow/red cards with a run down timer where applicable. Highly recommend 👍🏼 -- KL👍🏼👍🏼, 2022-05-13 ### ***** "Great app to use while on field!" Really rate the amount of functions within the app. Penalty count is easy to use. Details around scoring is easy to use - Try, conversion, Penalty Kick. Definitely been using the Yellow Card function a lot this season and it has a seperate timer for this which comes in really handy! Overall good app and where I’ve had any bugs the developer has been very helpful in submitting updates to fix. 👍🏻 -- TyronLagerwall, 2022-05-09 ### *---- "Unintuitive and won’t unlock Pro version on watch" Just can’t get this to work on the apple watch and the phone screen is just awful to use. Sorry but I can’t use this. -- RyanSimpson2708, 2022-04-01 [View all RugbyREF reviews and detailed analytics on AppTail](https://apptail.io/account/signup?utm_campaign=ai-crawl&utm_content=reviews) ## RugbyREF In-App Purchases | Item | Price | |------|-------| | Subscription | $18.49 | ## Apps Similar to RugbyREF - [Fair Play AMS](https://apptail.io/app/fair-play-ams-QAxe/new-zealand) - [Reffs](https://apptail.io/app/reffs-vOcf/new-zealand) - [Rugby Match Day](https://apptail.io/app/rugby-match-day-KBrf/new-zealand) - [South Canterbury Rugby Union](https://apptail.io/app/south-canterbury-rugby-union-dkBi/new-zealand) - [Otago Rugby Referees](https://apptail.io/app/otago-rugby-referees-xEAk/new-zealand) - [Waikato Rugby Referees](https://apptail.io/app/waikato-rugby-referees-jXCk/new-zealand) - [Auckland Rugby Referees Associ](https://apptail.io/app/auckland-rugby-referees-associ-oXCk/new-zealand) - [MyTouch Manager](https://apptail.io/app/mytouch-manager-uXCk/new-zealand) - [The Coaching Gig](https://apptail.io/app/the-coaching-gig-HEZk/new-zealand) - [Mahurangi Rugby Club](https://apptail.io/app/mahurangi-rugby-club-OZnm/new-zealand) ## RugbyREF Available In - [New Zealand](https://apptail.io/app/rugbyref-lCie/new-zealand) - [Canada](https://apptail.io/app/rugbyref-lCie/canada) - [United Kingdom](https://apptail.io/app/rugbyref-lCie/united-kingdom) - [Singapore](https://apptail.io/app/rugbyref-lCie/singapore) - [Ukraine](https://apptail.io/app/rugbyref-lCie/ukraine) - [Australia](https://apptail.io/app/rugbyref-lCie/australia) - [South Africa](https://apptail.io/app/rugbyref-lCie/south-africa) - [Netherlands](https://apptail.io/app/rugbyref-lCie/netherlands) - [Norway](https://apptail.io/app/rugbyref-lCie/norway) --- ## About AppTail [AppTail](https://apptail.io) is a mobile app intelligence platform providing app analytics, ASO (App Store Optimization) tools, keyword tracking, competitor analysis, revenue estimates, and review monitoring for iOS App Store apps.
