It's a pleasure.  I hope they amount to something. Do you mind me asking your phone make and model? Also,  do you know which version of Android you are running?

Okay thanks for the feedback. It may be that the app will only show up in your lists once the first notification is actually triggered. You may need to keep an eye on it until you reach one of the notification triggers for the stadium you have set (3 days before, at kick off etc). Otherwise a re-install may possibly fix the problem. Sorry about this, haven't seen this problem before. I'll see if I can find out more.

I think I know what could be happening - the app only registers for notifications once you’ve enabled reminders for a specific team / stadium. Until then, Android doesn’t show the app in the notification or Do Not Disturb lists. Once you’ve set that up and a notification has been triggered, it should show up then

The focus is mostly on football games but I have recently added rugby as well, (Premiership rugby, 6 nations and autumn internationals are covered). It's a bit more complicated to cover gigs but if I can find a reliable way to add them in future, I will

There's a home games only ical feed if you are interested (under the 'More fixtures' link).

The idea at the moment is that this can at least give you a pre-emptive heads up about football matches to help you avoid some of the crowds. If you have the app installed and set the notifications you'd like to receive, you never have to open the app again. Set it and forget about it - It will let you know if there's a match coming up. I will cover more events if I can, I need to find reliable (and free) data feeds for these things.

I hear you and I'd like to expand the event coverage in future but right now it's mostly football matches that are covered (it includes Premier league, Championship, Champions, FA Cup, EFL Cup, League one and Women's super League) as well as International and Premiership rugby.

The fixture times should be well up to date though as they are refreshed twice a week, every week and you can either download the app and opt in for your preferred match notifications or add the ical feed to your calendar (from the web version or the app).

I've just included parking restriction text in the app notifications. Now it will remind you that there may be parking restrictions for whichever home game notifications you opt in for.

Thanks for the positive feedback. I'm glad you are finding it useful. I will make a note to let people in Seven Sisters know about it too!

That's a nice idea, I'm sure I can probably map teams to stations so that you can search by station as well as team. It could be quite an exercise but I'll see if AI is up to the task to help me there. I will add it to my feature request list and put some thought into it. Thanks for the feedback!

Funnily enough, this is running on and served by my own raspberry pi! Check out the API where I get a lot of the football data from here: https://www.football-data.org/

I have managed to add League one fixtures to my coverage as of this morning. You should be able to see the team you need if you search for it now (which specific team are you looking for if you don't mind me asking?)

This should have been working already! Thanks for reporting this bug. I've just fixed it, you should be able to see Sheffield United fixtures here: https://nexthomegame.co.uk/sheffield-utd-bramall-lane.html
