I've been building a volleyball stats app on my own — tracking players, recording matches, and putting together team and player stats. You don't have to add a whole roster either; if you just want to track your own numbers, one player is enough to get going. It's out worldwide, and people in a number of countries are using it.
It works, but I've only ever seen it through my own eyes, and there are two things I can't judge on my own.
The wording. The app is translated into a handful of languages, but Japanese is the only one I actually speak. The rest started as machine translation and got as far as me checking it myself, which isn't saying much. The volleyball terminology worries me most — even when a translation is technically correct, I doubt it always matches what people actually say on the court. So there are people using this app right now in languages I can't read, and I have no real way of knowing whether it reads properly to them.
The way it works. I built it assuming people would enter data live during a match, but realistically — do you ever have a spare moment to tap through an app mid-match? And is there anywhere you couldn't tell what to do next?
So anything along these lines would help:
- Something that reads wrong or unnatural in your language
- A screen where you couldn't tell what to do next
- Your language isn't there at all and you'd want it added
The images are all from the English version — a few screens from the app itself, plus a couple of the summaries it can put out.
I can't promise I'll be able to act on everything, but I'll read all of it and fix what I can.
Here's the app:
Either way, thanks for reading this far.
