Heja Reviews

by Solikcrew

It would be great if Heja would refresh correctly, constantly says I have a new notification but I can’t figure out what they are, and then the notifications never go away once I’ve read over all I can. and it needs to show the last several comments all at once so you have context to comments. Usually I have to go back and re-read all the comments to make sense of it. Handy but could be better on the details.

The overall functionality works for mass alerts and makes it easy to keep updated. My one complaint is the private message/chat service. After a few messages, you can no longer scroll up to see the previous comments or questions which makes it necessary to create more messages. Would like to see an update that allows you to review previous reply’s in the chat function.

It would be nice if coach and admin could both control the schedule without paying for the pro version. For coaches who often make pennies for their time coaching youth sports the cost is kind of high.

Our soccer league has a calendar you can automatically subscribe to, wish we could integrate that link into the this app app so every game and game change wouldn’t have to be manually input.

Also it would be nice if the directions would link straight from your calendar (google, iCal etc) without having to open Heja to then get the address and directions

I like the ease of use and the quick notifications. I have had no problem with Heja besides one time freezing, but my phone did that kind of thing before installing Heja. If the organizer puts all the schedule info into Heja then it seems it would be very productive but our coach has not yet used this feature. I can not rate the fifth star only because I have not seen the feature of the scheduler, by no fault from Heja maker. Otherwise Great Job!

Sports team has been looking (for years) for a good, FREE, option for team and schedule management. Being a self-sponsored team, TeamSnap just isn’t a good option as that would increase team fees. Used an online team manager, which was difficult to use with poor organization and notifications.

So far, this app is working well for our purposes.

Some improvements that would be awesome for us are
1) ability to upload non-picture or video files, such as word documents or spreadsheets (for team documents like registration, waivers, etc)
2) ability to edit your own posts
3) admin abilities: to pin posts to the top of the page, to merge posts

At this point, we do still have to use Facebook and/or Google docs for these purposes, which means we still have team info in multiple different places... but it’s a start!

It seems like a great app. Here are a couple of suggestions: Could you change the “going” and “not going” to “available” and “not available” and then let the coaches decide who is “going”? Would it be possible to add a function that would allow coaches to send personal messages to individual players and parents and vice versa? I am still experimenting with the application. Thank you.

Very nice app for communication and scheduling for teams. I would definitely recommend it.

It would be nice to have a photo album button to easily access photos/videos that were shared the team on the main timeline. When sharing/posting, include an option to copy the photo/video to team photo album.

Would also be nice to be able to input player jersey numbers for each player profile.

Say goodbye to the monotony of sending countless texts and say hello to this app! this app lets you send group or private messages, create team schedules, share photos and videos, manage information.

In my experience as a team coach and league coordinator, a team management app is rendered useless if only half your team is using it. Luckily, the good people at this app have made inviting, adding, and editing members as easy as 1..2..3. Once set up, Heja will give you the option to invite members using convenient communication methods including text message, Facebook, and/or email.

Currently, I am managing 3 separate teams without complications or confusion. Heja itself works seamlessly and I’ve yet to see any issues as far a “bugs” go. The developers packed Heja with helpful features any team manager will find useful without overwhelming it with bells and whistles. In short, Heja is everything you need, nothing you don’t.

In conclusion, Heja feels like whoever created trulydid his or her homework. It suits my every needs as a team management and will replace all previously downloaded (inferior) competitors.

Heja is really easy to use! It’s great for our 12U baseball team. We can all stay connected with the team at all times. I also like that you have tips and things to try if we are having a issue with something. Great app and I would highly recommend this to others!

I just started using it this season with my team and I love it. It keeps me organized to send reminders/updates and check in on my players. It’s fun to post pictures of our team in the feed. I have an adult soccer team and everyone seems to like connecting on here. 👍🏼

I only have positive things to say about Heja. this app thought of everything.

At the beginning of the season, I used the Home page to post reminders and forward emails I received from the region. Now, parents use it to post pics from practices and soon games. And I love that you can monitor how many of the team has seen and responded to each post.

The schedule feature is AMAZING. I added every practice session, created events only for Team Managers and Coaches, and will soon add the game schedule. I can easily track who is attending and missing a practice so I can prepare accordingly. Heja sends everyone, including me as the Admin, a reminder two hours before an event begins. Wonderful!

Registering was a breeze. Setting up the team page and inviting my team to join was easy too. No problems!! I was also able to assign which parents have Admin access. So simple!

Lastly, when I did my research, this app made it known that our privacy is their priority. They really thought of everything!

Super easy to use! We’re a busy active family and practice schedules are always hectic but Heja has made life easier for us also being able to add if my child is going or not makes it easy so the coach isn’t waiting on them to start practice.

by Dkstief

This is a very user friendly app to keep players and parents in the loop when it come to their sporting events. Also gives the ability for coaches to communicate additional things without limiting how much they can send out at a time. Highly recommend Heja!

We have a group of Pickleball players and we’re looking for a way to improve communication and scheduling of different play times for multiple levels of players. Heja offers a great way to communicate that is not overly complicated. If you have groups of players you need to communicate with you should give this app a try!!

by Soccer Coach B

I have been using Heja for about a month now and it has worked great to communicate with varsity and junior varsity team members. It is easy to use whole group but also it is easy message a single athlete or group of players . The add picture tab also come in handy to send pictures of schedules or action shots that parents may want to share with everyone.

by 573pamdas

I have used Heja for many years and has worked amazingly overall. It is so amazing to have an app that you can share your schedule with your teammates! It is very useful and I love that anyone can post and everything is organized well. this app has helped my teammates and I keep up to date and make sure no one is late to upcoming events. I love it so much!

by Midtown Futsal

Heja is a perfect solution for scheduling our weekly pick up games. So much better than sending a bunch of emails! Totally automated and simplifying with ability to schedule and it’s automatic reminders. The whole team likes it and quickly picked up on it due to the ease of use. If you’re a little league coach, big league coach or trying to schedule pick up games don’t hesitate get this now!

this app is super great! I’m apart of the high school cross country team and this app is super helpful. My coaches are able to send out posts about workouts we have for practices and updates about upcoming meets and events. It is also super awesome because team mates can contact coaches without having to get their personal cell phone number or email. I’ve been using it for about a year and don’t have a single complaint.

by Tbs12386

I was on my volleyball team and there was a lot of miscommunication because we didn’t use this app and we used normal messages but because our coach wasn’t aloud to give her phone number out to the whole team she only gave it to the captains and that caused confusion but, now being on the basketball team we use this app and it’s very easy to see rescheduling and easy to communicate with teammates and coaches

by Mandagris

Coaches and parents love Heja . It’s more organized than group text. The schedule shows exactly when, where and what time we have games, practices, tournaments, etc. Reminders are sent out multiples times the day before and day of the activity.
Just do it. Parents were resist at first but once they logged in they love it!
You can also have messages between coaches and admin, team chat, and then private messages if needed.

by NWLL Coach

First off I want to say that I like Heja which is why I gave it a 3 instead of a 2 or 1. I use it for both of my little league baseball teams. That said, I had issues with Heja crashing and so have several of my parents. We actually had to start a Facebook page so we could upload pictures. I’m hoping this app can figure it out because it is a great tool. The reliability is not up to par.

by Lilly Keranen

I’ve been trying to open Heja for about thirty minutes now after I didn’t use it for a while and after it opens it sits still for a second and the blacks out my screen and shuts itself down. I really like Heja and I want to use it frequently now to see team pictures. If there’s anything you can do please help me out

by Coach Hull

I have used this for high school, youth travel, and youth recreational teams and it works extremely well for all levels. Instant accurate sharing of communication and is simple to use! I have a hard time believing that it is an entirely FREE app! And there are NO ADS! It’s almost too good to be true. I will be using this app for every team I coach!

by Lisag34

I have been looking for an app that you do not need an email address for, my players don’t check email. This is it!! I am very impressed. At first I wasn’t sure about all the reminders, but I have since had players and parents tell me that they love Heja and the reminders help. It’s a great app!!

by Malonyee

It’s pretty good. I am a student and it has helped me keep up with games and activities planned for my team that I would otherwise forget if not reminded of. I also love that you can message the people in your group & that there are emojis you can reply to a post with

by BRADSVBALL1234

I love that this app is able to post my schedule, and I am able to see who will be in attendance at our events. This makes scheduling for families easier, being able to see what is upcoming, and our attendance at camps, clinics, open gyms, etc. is better!

by KP Soccer

I simply love Heja! I’m coaching two different youth teams and Heja has truly simplified and improved every aspect of communication and scheduling. Parents love it as well. (I’ve given several similar apps trial runs, and this one outperforms the competition. It’s completely free as well!)
