Penal is a modern football pool app, ready for the FIFA World Cup 2026. During EURO 2024 it performed strongly: thousands of predictions, stable real-time updates, and an active user base. That experience forms the foundation for the World Cup edition, expanded with multiple pool types and richer statistics. Make predictions, follow live scores, and challenge your friends. Built with React Native for a native experience on both iOS and Android from a single codebase. The custom-built backend uses Socket.io for real-time updates and push notifications.
