I tried programming back in the late 1980s on a Commodore C64 in the Basic programming language. However, with the device, my ambitions disappeared from the children's room after a few months. Professionally, I acquired a few HTML skills and realized both web and software projects in a leading position.
I first started programming properly at the beginning of 2023. As a dedicated Apple user, I wanted to learn Swift, Apple's own programming language. I was helped by ChatGPT, which does an excellent job as a source of cues and explanations. What’s the Score, Bro? was initially intended to be a simple app for counting goals. With the feedback from users, it quickly became something more. I looked at numerous referee apps for the Apple Watch and decided that I wanted to do better.
Key Features:
- Note match events in seconds: Goals, substitutions, temporary dismissals, cautions, and sending offs.
- View remaining time, current minute of play and accumulated injury time
- Overview of all temporary dismissals with alarm function
- Quick overview of all substitutions and cards of both teams
- Substitution of several players at once
- Flexible setting of half-time length and number of half-times
- Elimination matches with extra time and penalty shootout
- Cautions and sending offs with official IFAB justification
- Automatic half-time alarm
- Complete match report as user friendly feed
- Save matches directly to the Apple Watch
- Change the jersey colors
- Highlight the team with kickoff
It feels incredible, but the app is endorsed by the Hessian Football Association and developed in consultation with the German Football Association (DFB). What’s the Score, Bro? has 31 ratings with an average of 4.9 stars in the German App Store. It still feels a bit surreal, but starting to code was one of the best decisions of my life. I'm still learning every day and receive a lot of constructive feedback that helps me move forward. I would be very happy to receive a few tips and suggestions from this community. ❤️
