Frequently Asked Questions

How do I sync my plays across my iPads?

Make sure each iPad is signed in to the same Apple ID and that iCloud is enabled. The app syncs automatically in the background — no account setup is required inside the app. If iCloud isn't available, your data stays safely on-device until it is.

What are the three arrow styles?

Pass (yellow dashed) marks a passing lane, Run (solid white) marks off-the-ball movement, and Dribble (cyan dotted) marks a player carrying the ball. Pick a style from the Arrow tool before drawing.

How do I animate a multi-step play?

Add movement across multiple steps while drawing, then use the animation controls to play the sequence back — each step runs in order so your team can follow the full sequence.

How do I browse Formations & Strategies?

Open the menu and choose Formations & Strategies to browse the 6 built-in formations (with an animated example play for each) and the 8 named tactical strategies, organized by style.

How is Scouting different from my regular plays?

Scouting reports are flagged separately from your own plays so opponent-focused diagrams don't mix into your team's playbook. Filter to the Scouting tab from the main library at any time.

How do I build a Match Script?

Go to Match Scripts and assign plays to a phase of the match — Build Up, Counter Attack, Corners, Free Kick, Penalty, or 1st/2nd Half — so your plan is organized before kickoff.

How do I run a timed practice?

Go to Practice Plans, add plays from your library with a duration for each, and tap Start to open the live countdown timer. You can pause and resume at any point during the session.

How do I export a play as an image or PDF?

Open a play, tap the Share icon, and choose to share as an image or as a multi-page PDF — useful for handing your team or staff a printed scouting report.

I found a bug — how do I report it?

Please email hello@rattlerplay.com with a description of the issue, what you were doing when it occurred, and your device model and iOS version. Screenshots or screen recordings are very helpful.
