Sports Fan Club App: How AFTV Provides an Exclusive Fan Experience

Written by Kaius, CEO | Sep 27, 2023 7:37:49 AM

AFTV (formerly known as Arsenal Fan TV) is a football fan media dedicated to the supporters of Arsenal FC. AFTV was founded in the UK in October 2012 by former BBC reggae radio host Robbie Lyle.

The AFTV digital media universe consists of a popular Youtube channel, and several other social media channels with millions of followers, and a website packed with fan interviews and inside stories of one of the best football clubs in recorded history.

Now AFTV can interact with their football fans: with a world-class mobile app that gives the fans an exclusive access to the AFTV Fan Zone where they can join the live broadcast, follow matches, and even converse with the live stream hosts.


 

The AFTV+ mobile app is available for iOS and Android. In the app, fans can enjoy their favorite content, stats, vote for their favorite players, rate player performances, chat in fan chat groups and much more.

The app places the fan in the center, offering highly mobile optimized experiences and real time information delivered with streams and push messages directly to the users.

The AFTV+ app was built using the Choicely no code mobile app builder. AFTV can use the same platform to edit and update their apps in an agile way. The AFTV+ app also publishes content from their video and social feeds automatically.

Brett Best, CEO of AFTV said: 

"This product is clever and intuitive and can fulfil our needs for a responsive app built on native platforms. For the price, it is remarkable technology."

“Choicely is a plug and play solution that can handle constant changes and updates, without the heavy expenditure into our own tech and platform.  So it has great flexibility with low risk and quick turnaround times.”

Brett Best further describes Choicely software as “very easy” and adds:

“Think of it as Wix for Apps. Build your own and deploy. If you are not a tech first company, then I would highly recommend them.”


Kaius Meskanen, CEO of Choicely said:

“We are super excited and humbled by the trust given to us by AFTV team. Working with the AFTV team has been a journey as their ambitions are sky high, and we've actually upgraded the Choicely platform capabilities to facilitate some new cool stuff.

Also, we've integrated multiple external technologies to the app by awesome partners. Choicely is already serving the leaders in sports and entertainment with their mobile app builder and this is another great success story presenting the quality of our platform.”
