Instead of checking the feed every day, let Xsporty tell you when the game you want shows up.
Save a search
- On Home, open the filters and set what you're looking for: sport, area, when, time of day, level and age range.
- Switch on Notify me of games like this and tap Apply Filters.
- In the sheet, give the alert a name, pick the days of the week you can play (leave them empty for any day) and tap Notify me of games like this.
Alerts always look for games that still have spots.
How alerts work
When an organizer creates a game — or opens one up — that matches your alert, you get a push and inbox notification: New game matches your alert. Tap it to open the game and join. Alerts cover games that are open to join and visible in search; invite-only and approval-required games don't trigger them, and you're never alerted for games you organize or are already in.
Manage your alerts
Open your profile, tap the gear icon, go to Notification Settings and tap Manage game alerts. Each alert shows how many times it has notified you, a switch to pause it without deleting, and a delete button. You can also tap Turn off these alerts right on a notification.
How many alerts
Free accounts can keep 3 active alerts. Xsporty Athlete raises that to 25.
Frequently asked questions
Will I get an alert for games that need approval?
No. Alerts only fire for games anyone can join directly. Approval-required and invite-only games are left out.
Can I pause an alert while I'm away?
Yes. In Manage game alerts, flip the switch off. Turn it back on when you're back.
Do alerts work in the web app?
The notification lands in your in-app inbox everywhere. For a push on your phone, use the iOS or Android app.
