olympics.com schedule site is updated, with all the additional info like event entries, brackets etc.

Maybe it's just my taste, but I prefer more simplistic results systems, which are informative, over overproduced and designed ones.

If the current official system doesn't change or improve, I might end up trying other sites, like NBColympics, CBC, BBC or another rights holder. Perhaps they will have developed a more user friendly results viewing system.

 

I'm hoping the IOC and Atos is able to make some changes, because I'd much rather use the official system if at all possible.

I used this app during Tokyo 2020 and it looks like the developer is actively updating it for Paris 2024. It's a great minimalistic app with the schedule and a basic results system. If you just want a quick look at the schedule for a day or discipline, I highly recommend it.

When are we getting the official live scoring system up and running with start lists, matches, etc? The first competition starts in about 30 hours, I feel like it should be up soon.

This looks great honestly, there's just one big problem: it looks like it's Apple store exclusive, can't find it on my Android phone

Could I finally have found an actual use for my work phone, which tragically is an iPhone?  

 

Spoiler

Option B is confiscating my girlfriends tablet for 2,5 weeks, that's also Apple

I used to have an Apple work phone and an Android personal phone, so happy those days are over.

 

That reminds me, I do still have a work tablet that's an apple. But scrolling through apps on a tablet while already watching potentially multiple livestreams on tv and laptop and probably also having my phone nearby, might feel a little bit too excessive

There is an app for Android as well and it was on the Play Store but they removed it yesterday. Probably the IOC filed a complaint to use their official app so they had to remove it. The app still exists on other site-stores ( Paris Gold - Summer Games 2024 on APKCombo ) and the latest version is 2.0.6. I don't know if this will affect the development of the app from the developers. I send email to them to give us information about that.

 

EDIT: Developer said that app will be back online on Google Play Store in 1 or 2 days.

It looks like others have found out what happened to the app in the Google Play Store. Here is a link I have to share it... don't know if it will work until the app is back visible in store:

I just want an app that allows me to collapse/ expand the daily schedule by sports   Others may like it, but i don't want 10 sports being mashed up by the hour grid.
