    09Questions

    Before you start.

    Which sports does Lopta support?

    Football, basketball and tennis, each with its own scoring, clock and table. More sports are coming.

    Who can record a match?

    The group’s referees, managers and admins. Viewers follow.

    What if there’s no signal at the pitch?

    The Touchline holds taps made without a connection and sends them when it’s back.

    Can several people record the same match?

    Yes. Two referees can record the same match from their own phones, and everything lands in one match record. If the match changed on the other phone while you were tapping, Lopta keeps your taps and asks whether to send them, so nothing is overwritten by accident.

    Can I correct a result after the match?

    Yes. The group’s admin can correct any match, even after it ends.

    How do people join our group?

    With an invite link. You choose the role it gives and how long it works, from 24 hours to 30 days.

    Can I delete my account?

    Yes, in the app under You › Delete account. Your account is closed at once and no one sees it. You have 14 days to change your mind; after that your personal data is erased. Results you recorded stay in the competitions, shown as ‘Deleted account’.
