Ice Hockey App - for season 2017/2018

[hockeyupdates]

Hi,

First of all I apologise if this is in the wrong place.

I'm an app developer and have created an Ice Hockey Updates app that pulls various feeds together into 1 (hopefully easy to use) app so that you can see updates from all Ice Hockey games in 1 place.

The app also pulls Elite League Fixtures, Results, Standings, News and Videos so you can watch them from the comfort of your phone.

There are various feeds available from Elite League, NHL and the new EPL League Teams.

I am not trying to hard sell the app - i'm merely a freelance app developer trying to bring something to the community that will improve everybody's experience.

You can download the Android App for free below or the iTunes app from the following links (sorry the iTunes app costs, it covers the cost of hardware / developer programme fees)

Google Play Store Link: play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.chrispriestland.hockeyupdates&hl=en_GB

iTunes Link: itunes.apple.com/gb/app/ice-hockey-updates/id1236266311?ls=1&mt=8


Thanks for your support

I know you've got to cover costs but I won't normally download apps like this that cost and it's not personal it's due to the sheer volume of independent apps you can pay for and never work.

Is there anyway they can let you give a trial period?

Unfortunately there is no option to give a trial period as part of the iTunes store.

I can guarantee you that the app works and will continue to work. It's a maintained app and has been thoroughly tested. Apple have a very strict approval process. If the app doesn't work it doesn't get approved - period.

To give you a bit of background on me. I am a Software Developer and have been developing software for the last 11 years, this includes web applications, apps and windows software. I have quite a bit of experience around user interface design and user experience.

Also if you have any suggestions for the app once downloaded I am more than happy to collate them and release them in future updates - it really is an app for the community and I don't intend on it dying out.

Hope that makes sense and feel free to message me if you have any questions.

That looks pretty good. I'm not sure if this is even something you need to consider but have you checked that you have permission to use the content? This could cause you some legal issues if not. As I said, not sure how this works with everything being in the public domain already.

[hockeyupdates]

Thanks Matt, there are no legal issues with what we are doing, no.

Hope it proves successful for you

Just a note...the EPL doesn't exist anymore.

What a waste of money this was!
