Tourney BLINDS UP Tournament Manager for iPad/iPhone Review (1 Viewer)

[Redbelly]

Just having some fun getting ready for my October (Halloween) game!

... still lov'n the app!

Since I can't say enough FANTASTIC things about this BlindsUp! Tournament App... I shall continue![emoji41]

I've included a pic of our most recent game (November and the Thanksgiving themed background). Fun feature that adds to the overall package.

We just played Game #3 and thought I'd include what the files look for a finished game and also for an on going "Championship" series.

Still encourage people that download this App to write favorable reviews on the iTunes Store!

This app will only get better with the upcoming updates planned!

Just bought an open box appletv from Best Buy to use with this app, and hopefully have a game this Saturday. Pics look great Redbelly - you're a great salesman for this app!

 

[Forest@Farmington]

I will be using this on Saturday for the first time. Any chance I can get that Thanksgiving background??

Isn't much that can't be found by doing a google search for Thanksgiving images... I bet you'd come up with some very kewl background ideas

 

[Forest@Farmington]

Yeah you are probably right but, can be easier to ask sometimes.

But then you'd have an identical thanksgiving screenshot at YOUR tourney as someone else?

With regret, I deleted it after the game and replaced it with my upcoming "December" game... I'm googling now. PM me your email and I'll send it if I find it soon. [emoji41]. Lots of wallpaper available though.

NP. I will find one for myself. If you had it I thought I would borrow. Thanks

Hi there,

Just a post to inform you that Blinds Up 1.6 is available on the App Store but you should NOT update: there is a critical bug causing a crash when launching the app: a new version is already waiting for approval, we requested an expedited review to get it available on the App Store within the next hours.

However, the app is now available on the iPhone, and since this is not an update but a whole new installation, you can download it without any problem on your iPhone!

Thank you.

 

[Forest@Farmington]

Thanks for the update Blinds Up. Will be watching for the new release. Glad to see it working on the iPhone also.

So far I'm really liking this app.

I maybe just have missed it but is there a way to reset a tournament including who's bought in so it doesn't count into the prize pool because I tried hitting the toggle for bought in but it still shows the prize pool like it counted everyone's. Also if someone is busted out on accident is there a way to undo that or just even reset the tournament? So far I've only been able to copy a tournament to start over, not just reset everything (buy ins, players, etc with a tournament that has already started).

I'm new to it so maybe I've just missed a few things.

Thanks

 

[bivey]

I head that problem as well. I'm not aware of a fix at this point

 

[Redbelly]

VERY excited about this update! Please let us know when it's "safe" to update!!!

 

[Mr. Cheese]

Just checked and mine updated to 1.6 automatically

I'm not sure to understand but when you change the buyin switch, the prizepool is not automatically calculated, you need to generate the prize again.
Maybe I could add some kind of 'Automatically generate prize pool' option?

Also if someone is busted out on accident is there a way to undo that or just even reset the tournament? So far I've only been able to copy a tournament to start over, not just reset everything (buy ins, players, etc with a tournament that has already started).

The 'Cancel bust out' button will be available in the next release, that's on my list!

Just checked and mine updated to 1.6 automatically

I'm currently still waiting for Apple reply for the express validation of 1.7...

Julian,
Tks for your hard work!

Just got the iPhone app. It's really good, but I can't duplicate a tournament. I need to make a whole new one. Is that part of the Pro upgrade?

 

[Blinds Up]

Did you try the duplicate from the tournaments list? It does not work :/
The duplicate works from the menu inside the tournament, in the settings tab.

 

[Trihonda]

To be clear, is the 1.6 update ok to download?

From here?

I click on duplicate and nothing happens.

I'm not personally... waiting for the ok from Julien. I think that the 1.7 is the fixed version that Apple has yet to approve. At least this is my read.

 

[Blinds Up]

Yes, this has been fixed in the 1.8 version
For the moment, go inside the tournament, go to the settings tabs, tap on the arrow and tap on Duplicate.

 

[Blinds Up]

1.6 only works if app is removed before (or for new users), update from 1.5 causes crash.

Works great thanks

 

[Trihonda]

Ok, good to know, since I have a tourney all set to go for Saturday. Glad I didn't upgrade and crash my app

Now, about that Android support......

 

[Blinds Up]

Blinds Up 1.7 is now available! It corrects the crash after an update from 1.x to 1.6. Get it on http://apple.co/1iTbALn

 

[Redbelly]

Can players with the iPhone app now follow the tournament clock if they download it? Thanks for the great work!
