Live Scores Apps

[Frazerbob]

Which phone apps do folk use for live match updates?

[HH81]

I use crowd scores but I noticed this season it doesn't seem as reliable as previous ones. Not sure why as it used to updated instantly after goals.

FlashScore is by far the best 👍

[jakedance]

I’m happy with ‘Onefootball’ on iOS.

[Mr White]

Futbol24 though after it's recent update it's not as good as it used to be.

[Edinburgh Green]

Live Score is top notch

[Sir David Gray]

Sofa score is the fastest one I've seen so far. I used to think it was live score but that's been quite slow a few times recently.

[3pm]

I use FlashScores as well.

[offshorehibby]

I use FotMob and find that okay.

[half.time.draw.]

Goal Live beats them all, Ive seen goals at Easter road, and my phone beeps, milliseconds late.

[mjh]

I use FlashScores as well.

👍

[BenjiOscar]

The recent update to FlashScores was excellent. Can now click through player names and get stats for every player. It’s very fast in updating the scores too. The fact it covers loads of other sports is excellent. A one stop shop.

Yip totally agree. That’s why I’m asking.

Thanks for all the replies.

I use flashscores.
Flashes up when theres a goal in the game,and very accurate also.

You can also set it up in sections...for if you have more than one coupon on.

I use Live Scores but the Sky Sports Score Centre app also has an alert function which seems decent as well.

Slightly off topic but these apps are a nightmare if you are watching a live game on Now TV. There is a delay on it compared to Sky Sports through Sky/Virgin so you get the alert from the app ages before the incident happens on screen. I assumed the alert I got that Hibs had equalised vs Dundee was incorrect it took so long to see the goal on TV.

Flashscores seems ok. Not tried any of the others mentioned.

Put my phone on do not disturb when watching hibs games on TV or HibsTV (especially so).

Heck some of the apps are so fast I swear I get a notification of a goal before I see it when I'm at Easter Road. :D

[Lancs Harp]

Another one for Flashscores

[hibs#1]

Flash scores for me as well.

Goal live is what I use as well. It’s lightning quick.

Sofascore is my favourite. And it's not just the first team. You get the development league, womens ; also does other team sports and individual (e.g. Tennis).

You can choose text to speech announcements as well (e.g. "Goal, Hibernian. Rangers 2 Hibernian 3" so you don't even have to take a neb at your screen when there's an alert. You get in-game table updates too and a nice little heat map to show how the game is going (dependant on coverage of course). You'll also get notifications of streamable / dailymotion links to goals / event as they are uploaded.

And - most importantly - you can mute notifications for specific matches (usually what I do, when I get "Team Line Ups announced" I click on the alarm bell to mute any more notifications for that game).

Aye I use Sofascore too, it's very good (apart from when I forget to mute our game when it's on delayed transmission :greengrin).

I refused to believe it when it told me Hibernian had scored in 90+2 to win the Scottish Cup, I was very glad to be wrong!

FootballWebPages have a tie-in with the Bostick Pub League and are pretty reliable for that level.

It also has a vidi-printer that allows you to choose leagues/matches.

[greenpaper55]

Livescore for me.

[IWasThere2016]

This. So fast...

[Bristolhibby]

I’m happy with ‘Onefootball’ on iOS.

That’s the one I use.

Got it linked to my watch for updates. It’s usually pretty rapid.

(Not as quick as Hibs.net though).

[frazeHFC]

Tried numerous but flashscores has been by far the best.

[erin go bragh]

FlashScores 👍

[Coco Bryce]

FotMob is excellent. Loads of stats and news also.

[tamig]

Live Score every time.

[essexhibee]

What I want to know is how do these apps know a goal has been scored so quickly? I've always wondered.

[Lancs Harp]

Goal line technology init.

I’m guessing it’s a central system that updates all of the apps. It’s all about how quickly the apps can get the info to you. I use goal live and I’m shocked at times how quick they can update things. The thing that always surprises me is that no matter what game is being played, the bookies will have the match as it happens on their website. Who is reporting this stuff back to them.

[jgl07]

Hibs twitter feed?

[AZhibee]

Fotmob, BBC Sport, and MK Teks is an old one I liked

[SChibs]

Flashscores is great, lineups, stats, H2h, odds, form, tables, team stats, player stats, every league on the planet. Nearly every sport on the planet.

Everything you could ask for at a fast speed

[Not In The Know]

BBC sport. You get push messages for your favourite team.

Is it an app or the website, the website is so slow. 2/3 mins behind the mentioned apps

[Ryan69]

Goal line technology init.

Theres a company (livescout I believe) that pays people Togo to the games and sit on the phone,stating when it's a corner,goal,dangerous attack...etc etc.
im guessing it goes to a main database for betting companies and livescore apps.

i got offered todo Omniworld....Who no longer exist.

£25 and free entrance. :)
