In short

Substitution is a courtside app for basketball coaches that tracks each player's rotation, estimated energy, fouls, and minutes, and alerts with sound and vibration when someone is due for a rest. The core features are free, and a paid tier adds minimum playing time rules, game reports, and lineup tools. Data stays on the device, with no ads or analytics.

About

Substitution is a courtside assistant that tracks your rotation so you can focus on coaching.

Add your roster, pick a rotation pattern, and start the clock. Substitution estimates each player's energy from their time on court and on the bench, tracks fouls and minutes, and alerts you with sound and vibration when someone is due for a rest.

FREE - Live games and pickup runs - Even-split rotation with sub alerts - Estimated energy for every player - Player fouls, with foul-trouble and foul-out alerts - Minutes played for every player - Team fouls, bonus alerts, and timeouts - Scoring

SUBSTITUTION PRO ($9.99/month, auto-renewing) - Minimum playing time tracking: set your league's rule, and the rotation prioritizes players who need minutes and flags anyone falling behind - Halftime and final game reports with minutes, plus-minus, and fouls, ready to share with parents - Plus-minus and best-lineup tracking - Auto-managed substitutions and a one-tap lineup optimizer - Starters-heavy and custom rotations - Player profiles: position, conditioning, strengths, and target minutes - End-game guidance: timeout prompts on scoring runs, media timeout windows, end-game and foul strategy, fouls to give, and offense/defense swaps

Energy figures are estimates based on timers and your settings, not measurements. You remain responsible for player health and for following your league's rules.

PRIVACY Your rosters and games stay on your device. Substitution has no ads, analytics, or tracking.

Substitution Pro renews monthly unless canceled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period. Manage or cancel in your App Store account settings.
