“Onside Sports is the most innovative sports betting app I’ve seen, I highly recommend it.” - Bob Stoll, aka Dr. Bob “The Onside Sports mobile app is an essential tool for the serious sports bettor.” - Jeff Ma, Bringing Down the House. Like a PP, I downloaded a bunch, but I only use two regularly. I like Ovia for its ease of tracking- I track my sleep, doctor's appointments, and write in notes and milestones. I don't keep a physical journal, so I log important events (conversations, emotions, etc) in this app.
