Grid Kings - Football Squares

The app was great and easy as the host to input all of the information. However, the link for people to view the grid isn’t working. You send the link via the app and people click the link and it brings them to what looks like a page that won’t load the board. So now I have to take screenshots and send that way? Annoying.

I’ve used this in the past with success but this year, it was garbage. The link to send other people doesn’t work. I reached out to them several times and never heard back about the issue. Sad to see a once quality app go so far downhill

This is a fantastic app to organize squares. Really like how it makes it interactive by incorporating a web site that people can access easily to see who has won each quarter and who is winning the current quarter. (Assuming you have winners by quarters). Also makes it very easy to invite people to join. It’s currently setup to assign random squares but they mentioned they are working on ways to assign specific squares to people. This is the only way I would ever do another square for sure.

Needs custom number options

Devs I mean it’s the simplest piece of programming. Let us draw our own numbers live then assign the numbers manually. U even infer we can do this before publish. How can u possibly not have this feature? Now I need to photoshop the drawn numbers into the grid. Really bad guys. I mean u have a potentially good thing here. But so exhausting in what u have to do. Also why not allow decimals like $2.50? That’s not very hard to program.

I’m the host and my participants cannot see updates after refresh.

The app is just fine for setting up a pool. The issue is when it’s finished and ready to share. It requires unique initials so you end up with random letters in squares that are mapped to player names in the app. When you share with your buyers via web, the player name list is empty. So now you have to screenshot multiple times or manually retype the names and send them to each buyer. In the end your efforts are more than what they should be and you’re better off with paper or maybe a different app

Are you going to make this available before the Super Bowl this year?

After creating a invite link the link would not work on iPhones it states could not open server on multiple phones, you could however manually enter names. Also members wanting to enter the pool cannot pick the box of choice it chooses for you.

App has been great to use but it appears that the GridKings website is down. Which makes sharing the grids impossible
