Feature Ideas

when I try to add my teams schedule to Apple calender, it says “insecure connection” “validation failed” and won’t let me subscribe. I’ve tried webcal, ics, iOS. This used to work fine but hasn’t in weeks. Example of calender link that doesn’t work for me: https://ics.benchapp.com/eyJwbGF5ZXJJZCI6MTE3NjcwNCwidGVhbUlkIjpbMTQwNDY1MV19 iPhone 17 Pro iOS 26.4.2

When payment is accepted through the app the fees can add up fast. For our weekly pick up game of just 10 players we pay $14.70 in fees a week. When you add in the $9/month for pro that comes to $67.80 a month. There should be a way for players to pay using the numerous no-fee payment services out there like Venmo, PayPal, or Zelle.

Allow the manager to assign colors to home and away jerseys, and then display those colors on the games.

Allow a player to invite a +1 to a game if they're bringing a friend or spare.

Prevent players from leaving or joining the game without manager intervention when within X hours of game start time. Join Flow: Player not attending attempts to join a free spot in the roster It is less than configured 2 hours before the game time Player receives a pop-up that they cannot self-join Manager receives notification about player wanting to join Leave Flow: Player attending attempts to leave the game roster It is less than configured 2 hours before the game time Player receives a pop-up that they cannot self-leave Manager receives notification about player wanting to leave Enhancements: Players can leave a comment when attempting to join/leave that is sent to the manager

I am subscribed to a lot of drop-ins and it would help my wife know which games I decided to check-in. She subscribed to the calendar so she can see the events, but always has to ask me if I am planning on going or not. My vision is adding the status as a header or footer to the event title as such: [IN] Hawks vs Brewsers [?] Hawks vs Shock [OUT] Hawks vs Goon Squad

When making lines add an option to write in a sub that isn’t on the roster or spares list. Doesn’t have to be just making lines just a place to pencil them in then put them on a line.

Possibility for any members to come with additional players that will increment the total number of participants. Members can add how many additional players (and in comment their names). And this number of additional players will be added to the total number of participants (this is to manage ad hoc/punctual reenforcement when needed).

Would love to be able to have different threads for the whole team to access, but to keep separate from the main everyday team chatter. For example, summer's coming up: we could have a separate chatter for optional summer training, camps, etc. Or we just finished a tournament, having a dedicated tournament thread would be great so it doesn't clog up the main chat. Being able to have multiple chatters still linked to the full team, but with headers/titles would be great to help organize things

I switched phones and now I do not get push notifications for team chatter. I go to the "Managing Connected Devices" and there is no way to disconnect old devices and connect a new one. Either this is an oversight and needs to be added or a bug that needs to be corrected (or somehow I am missing it?)

In dark mode on my desktop using google chrome when I am submitting the scores I can't see the numbers in the dropdowns until the value is selected.

New update seems to have messed up the chatter. Can’t see the chat full screen anymore, just half of the screen.

Add sailing as another sport. I manage a big boat sailing team that requires setting a line of specialized crew/positions each week. Ive been managing my hockey team thru the Benchapp and see that it would transfer pretty seamlessly to my sailing team. I want to see clearly who is def in, who is def out, and what positions they typically do so I know if I need to invite a sub or two. I'd ask you add positions within the sailing sport as: HELM, TACTICIANI, MAIN, JIB TRIM, SPINNAKER TRIM, OFFSIDE TRIM, PIT, MAST, SEWER, FLOATER, OTHER1, OTHER2, BOW, and if its possible to arrange them like this that would be sick too. HELM TACTICIAN JIB TRIM OFFSIDE TRIM SPINNAKER TRIM PIT SEWER FLOATER OTHER OTHER BOW

Be able to set how many players I need per game and invite all spares at once. The first to accept gets the spot. Also maybe be able to set how many forwards and defence I need and then invite spares and the first to accept based on the position they are gets to play.
