Liquipedia: Esports Tracker

First of all sorry for my bad English because it’s not my main language. I usually don’t write reviews but I thought I really have to send a message for all the people who are working on this app. I want to tell you guys to keep up the good work and please keep updating and making the app better and better because it has so much potential and future. I fully support you guys and I do see a bright future for this app. Of course there are lots of bugs and cons that I hope you guys fix them in the future and I know you will. Keep updating the app and keep up the good work my friends 🧡.

(Valorant focused) As the title says, the app is quite simple and straight forward to navigate. My primary complaint is that the events shown on liquipedia’s webpage (including VCT Ascension and other VCT tournaments) don’t show up on the app for some reason. Some events will have titles but no page. I assume these are slowly being updated as it’s nice to go back and look at old tournaments and placements to track team progress and see brackets. Prize pools are also incorrect among other things for some events that are accurate on the webpage version. Another slight nitpick but I’ve noticed that my and some other coach/player pages have incorrect birthdays by a day when the webpage profiles are fully accurate showing that there is some sort of disconnect in the transferring of information. Once again many of the previously played or participated in tournaments for different players or teams, aren’t showing on the app when they do show on the webpage. TLDR; the app has significant potential for purely checking recent match scores, but if you want any of the other features liquipedia offers or to see ALL current tournaments, I would say it’s still easier and quicker to use the liquipedia webpage for now.

I love the introduction to the app being able to choose your favorite games, teams and players to follow and scrolling through match results like instagram stories works surprisingly well. My one question is when is apex legends tracking coming to the app? Would have been an instant 5 stars with Apex, but I’m happy I have R6 and CS still

Edited since the developer responded and is reading feedback and improving the app. Would prefer less intrusive ads or a one-time fee to remove them (would pay $20). Also, wish there was an option not to show scores on recent matches so I can enjoy watching the replays without spoilers! Edit again: The developer released spoiler free mode and there’s a paid option to remove ads. Nice!

I really do wish the app were half as good as the website. And, truly I’m trying to be patient with the developers as they work on it more. But man, things are glitchy and clunky. I really wish coaches would be added to team rosters. That’s a simple ask, yeah? I also cannot edit anything on my profile. Overall, the basic function of the app is ok. I do get notifications of game and scores. I like being able to make favorites for teams and even players. Long way to go, though. Oh, and I am paying the yearly sub because I want to support the dev team and their improvements.

Being able to follow specific teams and events is great! But not having Lock Screen or applewatch notifs really hurts the practicality of using this app.

The app functions well, but there’s not an option to turn off spoilers. When I want the option to see what time my favorite team is playing, I don’t want to see the results of previous games. I want to be able to enjoy the thrill of watching a game and not knowing what the outcome will be. I used the app a few months ago, deleted it the same day. Tried again yesterday hoping they’d fix it by now, but they haven’t, so that’s why I’m leaving a review. Hopefully the devs can change this, cuz I’d like to use the Liquipedia app as much as I use the website.

Wasted spaces, useless transition pages. Zero understand of user experience and human interface. You have the best cross table on the web, it’s easy to understand and follow, instead you opt for the useless, story-alike, space wasting score board. How do people check on the teams that they’re interested in? Tap slowly so they don’t miss it? There’re problem with the bracket view - why spend a whole page just to list [Bracket A- Bracket B], what if users want to view both so they can cross checking. It’s the very opposite of intuitive and minimalist design. Let user’s focus dictates what they want to see, and minimize the information shown on each bracket so it’s not overwhelming instead of stacking navigation view after navigation view. This app belong in the trash can for how useless it is. Please gives Liquipedia the app it deserves <3.

I use this app to follow R6 and while I like the interface it would be really helpful to see which map the matches are taking place on as well as the side statistics. Also would love to have the option to follow Smash Bros on the app as well
