Your app’s voice

Dry, fun, or somewhere between. Set it once with dials and samples.

Questions

What sports app teams ask.

Can it require the official report?

Yes. Rank official sources as lead. A story with only a fan forum behind it is held.

Is this betting advice?

No. Stories report what your sources say, including line moves. They never make picks.

Can it cover a single team?

Yes. Name the team in your beat and add that team’s feeds as sources.
