Hey Product Hunt 👋 Maria here, solo founder, no team. I designed, built, and shipped all of this myself across iOS, Android, and web. I built Bola 2026 because following a World Cup somehow requires juggling five apps: one for scores, one for the schedule, a bracket printout, a group chat for the office pool, and Google Maps to guess which bar is showing the match. I wanted one free thing that just does all of it, with no account wall in the way. So that's what this is: Live scores + schedule in your timezone, with push notifications. Bracket builder + pools where you share a code and the leaderboard scores everyone automatically. No more doomed spreadsheets. Bola Map, a real map of bars showing matches near you, filterable by your national team. Widgets, My Team, predictions, 31 languages. All free, no login. The 2026 tournament is the first 48-team format, so getting the data right (104 matches, the new Round of 32, third-place seeding) was genuinely the hard and fun part. It's completely free. I'm launching now, a bit ahead of the June 11 kickoff, because the bracket and pool features are most useful before matches start. I'd love feedback on which feature you'd actually use, and what's missing. Ask me anything! ⚽
