App Profile: Real - Sports

I seriously believe Real could replace watching games on TV/streaming, etc. Unless you are in person, it’s difficult to match the spectacular combination of insight and feelings of hype the coverage injects into what would otherwise be a regular game. The rankings of excitement on plays, undoubtedly the best sports app feature since the phone was invented, clearly carries this feeling. Plus, they seriously have faster data reporting/game updates than any other coverage besides being in person. I get updates on homeruns, touchdowns, you name it before it even happens on the game coverage from TV/Streaming. I sometimes have to put my phone down in big moments to cheer for my team so I can react to the video and not the update that comes before the coverage feed. Talk about suffering from success. The interface provides so much depth on what is actually happening in the game, it’s absolutely perfect for watching games at public settings where you shouldn’t have an actual video going. I can’t get over how high the quality is compared to bigger studios like ESPN, it just seriously blows them out of the water. Not even close. Devs have a great product here and have really shown how much better something can be if passion and hard work is put into it. Been a supporter for near when the app launched, and will continue to be for the foreseeable future. Just a solid way to elevate understanding of and watching sports.

I can’t express enough how good this app is. As someone who loved apps like BleacherReport and MyTeams, this app is a complete game changer. No disrespect to those apps as I believe they’re still among the best options if you simply want highlights, box scores, and simple interactions through comments, but Real brings all that and so much more. You get to chat, join/create groups for friends and/or just your fellow sports fans, react to plays AS SOON AS THEY HAPPEN, do polls based on what you believe will happen, and so much more. My favorite thing about the app is the way you get to follow specific players and get updates on everything they do on the court. One disadvantage to this app is that it’s only about what is on the court or field (or rink now, with the integration of the NHL) and not off of it, like BR does. However, this app is designed to be a sports lover’s best friend and does exactly that. If you get this app, I promise you won’t regret it. I’m still finding more about the app and what I already discovered is already enough for me to delete all other sports apps. (except for the Bulls app, of course) Do yourself a favor and get Real. Tell your friends and family. As it gets bigger and takes over the industry, hopefully more and more sports and leagues get added to it too (specifically college football lol)

I decided, after seeing a lot of ads, to finally download this app. I thought it was just the normal sports app that gives injury intel and news, but boy was I wrong. This app is MUCH more than that. This app has live play-by-play for numerous sports and games, even when they're at the same time. The injury updates are fast as well as the news. The poll aspect of the app is fun, guessing the o/u and who's going to win, commenting under plays and posts to support your favorite teams, this app has all of it and so so much more. But there's one part that sets this app apart from a lot of other sports app; and it's the cards. With Rax, the in-app currency you can buy or get by completing different tasks (or with Real Pro), you can buy your favorite players and teams and collect plays to level them up. My current players that I own are Brandon Aubrey and Ceedee Lamb (go Cowboys!), though I want to expand my collection further. Also, shoutout to one of the developers, John. He is super kind and open to advice, if you get the chance to give him feedback and support, please do it, you won't regret it. He listens! (Unlike other apps..). All in all, this app is great. I recommend getting it if you love sports, especially love talking about it with other people. Have fun!
