Start the match timer

To use the match timer in full effect you need to do two things.

  1. Save your match setup (only needed once)

  2. Confirm your line-up

Save match setup

  1. Select the start timer button in match control

  2. Set your match settings

    1. Minutes per period

    2. Break setup

Confirm starting line-up

  1. Select the players that are playing by hand or use your latest line-up

  2. Select the available substitutes for the match

  3. Confirm starting line-up

Match timer started

After confirming the starting line-up the games will start. The player list on overview will be live updated with the minutes played per player. You can pause the match timer if there’s a long break on the field.

  1. Timer is started. Pause the timer when needed

  2. In the line-up you will see the minutes played per player live updating

  3. The timer will pause automatically on the time stated in the match settings of the team (for example 45 minutes).

  4. When the timer is stopped the period can be ended by a user, when you open the app you will get a haptic nudge to do this

  5. Start the next period by pressing the play button

  6. You can end the match by selecting end match/ period when the final period has ended

Reset, skip or go back in time

If you started the timer too late, too early or want to reset the timer as a whole. You can dynamically adjust the timer.

Reset the timer

  1. Swipe up & click on the reset button

  2. Confirm

Note: if you reset the match timer all match events and lineup changes will be undone.

Move forwards or backwards in time

  1. Pause the match timer

  2. Swipe up & click on the clock symbol

  3. Select the period and the match minute you want the match timer to continue from.

  4. Press confirm

Note: if you move the timer backwards in time all match events that happend later than the timer will be set to the new match time. E.g. if you added a goal in minute 10, but set the match timer to minute 5. The new time for the goal will be minute 5. You can always edit the match minutes for events later.
