Whistle Time: Price, features and alternatives
Match timing and card-tracking app for referees, with Apple Watch sync and GPS heatmaps.
What Whistle Time does
Whistle Time is a timing assistant for football referees that also works for other sports such as hockey, handball, basketball and rugby. It lets referees configure match periods, half-time and injury time, with warnings as the clock counts down or up. Yellow and red cards can be logged with configurable time penalties and alerts when a penalty ends. Match settings save as templates, and nine sport templates come pre-loaded. The app syncs across Apple Watch, iPhone and TV, and live match data can be shared with assistants, coaches or spectators via a match code or link. After the match it produces an event overview and a GPS-based personal heatmap. It is free on iOS with in-app purchases, including a subscription that removes ads.
Best for: Football referees wanting a phone and Apple Watch match timer with card tracking and post-match review.
