Why coaches switch
Your entire system, on one court
Stop juggling whiteboards, spreadsheets, and laminated cheat sheets. Rotations puts the whole plan where the game happens.
Every formation, one tap
Flip between home, serve receive, attack, serve, and defense looks instantly. Each rotation remembers its own custom positioning.
Live stats & scorekeeping
Log kills, aces, digs, passes, and errors with a tap. Side-outs advance the rotation automatically and the scoreboard keeps itself.
Share with your team
Hand players one Rotations Key and their app mirrors your plan, read-only. Update a lineup and everyone is instantly on the same page.
App tour
From first practice to match point
Plan
Six rotations, zero flashcards
Create, rename, duplicate, reorder, and hide rotations from one picker. Start from a 5-1, 6-2, or any standard system - the app pre-fills legal positions so you tweak instead of starting from scratch.
Position
Formations that match your whiteboard
Serve receive, attack, serve, and defense each get their own player placement per rotation. Drag anyone anywhere - the app keeps the overlap rules honest so you stay legal.
Match day
Lineup sheets the scorer's table will love
Start a match and get an instant line-up sheet - USAV court grid or NFHS serving-order list - with jersey numbers, first server, and libero already filled in. Print it or hand over the screen.
Compete
Take stats without losing the game
Tap a player, tap the action - kill, ace, dig, pass rating, error - and get back to coaching. Rotation, formation, score, and substitutions all track themselves while you record.
Review
Find the rotation that's costing you points
Every session breaks down kills, serving, passing, and errors per player - plus a points-by-rotation view that flags your weakest rotation and a plain-English game summary you can share.

3.0.0 release is a HIT
I've been a user of this app for years and it's come in clutch for both my club and high school yeams. However the latest update has kicked this app into PRIMETIME. I did not know they were still cranking out hardcore development like this but now, this app does pretty much EVERYTHING I NEED. With a more pleasing UI, more features, and now STATS? This is a game changer. I would give them more than 5 stars if I could.
Account Needed
This is a perfect app, already gave it 5 stars. But I do think that the “rotation code” is outdated, and having an account to save all my rotations to without worrying about losing them if I lose access to my device and end up having to make them all over again would be very helpful. More personalization/customization never hurts
Great app simple and effective
I am using this during tournaments and games and it is extremely helpful, especially because I have many teams with new players so this is great to keep track of positions and correct on the fly. I would love to have a mini score tracker with a simple plus minus it could be for example of the top right or top left of the field with that. I won’t have to switch back-and-forth from app to app when tracking score as well.
So useful
Amazing app. Hope you continue to improve on things. Really useful and well done. Our entire Club is using this.
worth the $15
LOVE this app.
It is so nice to play around with rotations instead of wasting time in practice trying to figure out what works. One suggestion. I use the colors for position. For example, I use Red, Orange, Yellow in front row, and Green, Blue, Purple in back row. It makes it easier to play with positioning on Serve Receive. If you could have a "sticky color" option so that I can apply a lineup to all 6 rotations, but leave the colors as is, that would be super helpful!
Most fleshed out and polished app for mocking up volleyball formations
I was really hesitant to shell out $15 for an app, but this is by far the most fleshed out and polished app for mocking up volleyball formations out there. Get everyone on your team to Venmo you a couple bucks and you're good to go
Awesome volleyball coaching tool
Awesome tool for coaching player positions.
Useful Volleyball App
very useful + friendly interface
Rotation helped
As a coach I am often playing future matches in my head. I really love this apps ability to help me put my ideas into a viewable format that I can share with my players.
LOVE I LOVE THIS APP!
It is easy for beginners (takes just a little time to see the best way to set things up & then see all the things you can do)-but it's also great for more advanced teams. It is SO helpful to me! ONE ASK OF DEVELOPERS: Can you create something in settings where I can move around the order of my rotation choices? I'd like to customize my white pull-down rotation menu to be in a specific order. (I'd like to sort them differently depending on what I'm doing that game/practice).
A must for any club coach
Outstanding!
seriously
Seriously worth every penny.
Game-Changer for New Coaches
This app has saved me countless times in my first couple of seasons coaching.
Great little app
The ability to show names and different colors for each player is awesome. Saving different locations on the floor is really good. I would like to be able to save the location of the volleyball. Maybe I simply don’t understand how. This app is also great to have on the sideline during a match when they get confused.
Awesome Tool
This app is a life saver for a new coach. Well worth the price. Keep up the good work
Great Volleyball App with Potential
Great app. One feature I'd love to see added is international rotation numbering.
Excellent
I’m a first year club coach and this app has been invaluable to learning and demonstrating rotations for my team and I! A 30 year coach just asked me for the link ♥️ there’s a bit of a learning curve but it’s so easy once you get the hang of it
Clutch
This app has been clutch in my volleyball coaching. Not only is it great for getting my rosters sorted and visualizing my rotations, it helps me show my players how to play their rotations and give them a visualization. I've shown it to other coaches and they are blown away. Keep this updated and progressing.
Great Service
I’ve been using this app for several years and absolutely love it. I upgraded my ISO to 16.2 which caused the screen size of the app to be larger than my ipad screen. I emailed tech-support for help and their response was within 10 minutes. The problem has been fixed and I couldn’t be happier with how they handled the situation.
Fantastic Volleyball App
I use this with 12-15yr old Club Teams for them to review before Tournaments. Not many simple, useful Volleyball apps out there. This is one…easily worth the money. Please continue developing this app! (Love the latest up date btw) ** UPDATE Been using this for a couple years now, and can’t begin to say how useful this is. Personally couldn’t live without it. Before each Match I make a Video of all the Rotations and Offensive/Defensive schemes i’ve setup and have the Girls study before the Game. Not just a Rotation Assistant (but great at that), but also a REALLY Powerful Coaching Tool as well. PLEASE keep this App alive at any Cost. I will pay for an update
Great App
Great app, takes some time to set up, but it's helped me with analyzing the lineups before our matches. It also was useful during the game when I needed to write in the lineup before matches.
Great Assistant Coach
I like being able to work up new serve receive rotations. This app allows me to do so and it also lets me know when I am out of rotation because of a move I make. Very helpful. I love being able to show my players where I want them defensively also. Great app!
Very well with the cost
Needed this to help me learn rotations in running a 5-1 and a 6-2 at the middle school level. This helped tremendously. Had a question about how to do certain things and sent a message to the admin. They got back with me very fast and was very helpful. I highly recommend. You won’t be disappointed.
Good volleyball teaching tool
Very good app to learn the rotations and to teach. Also good to talk tactics with the players.
Sweet App
Well built!!!
My Assistant Coach
This has been a life saver! Coaching without an assistant this year and having this app available on the sidelines on my iPad had enabled my beginner players to be in charge of their subs. It also help me teach my beginners about our offense and defense formation using this as a great visual.
Player friendly
This is the easiest and effective way to track rotations/substitutions. This app is one of the most "player friendly" for volleyball. Volleyball Rotations visually (animation) shows switching (transitioning) and positioning for attacks, receiving, serving, and blocking. The coach has control and customization of positioning players on the court and transitioning them; demonstrates the transition via animation. My players have the app, so I can share the next match line-up for their review.
Coach
Great app to work through rotations at higher and lower levels of play. I would like to see a way to transfer data between devices. I would also like to see a greater way to set plays for serve receive transitions.
I LOVE THIS APP!!!!
Finally someone gets it right! This is exactly what I was looking for to manage our rotations. Simple yet robust. Developers please add way to import the export data. I was hoping to transfer from my tablet to iPhone. Thx!!!
Auto rotation
I wish the app would let you auto rotate once you set up a scheme. instead of having to click 1,2,3 etc. a button to just auto rotate your players to their next position would be awesome.
