Fig. 1: The customizable FootieFox Scoreboard

Small but big.

FootieFox is tiny. (Some even say it’s cute!) This is definitely true in terms of the program’s size and appearence: The Add-on integrates smoothly in the status bar of your Firefox browser. A nonintrusive panel on the status bar displays two little flags and the score - that’s about it! However, the service of keeping you up to date with the latest soccer scores is extremely useful.

We carefully designed FootieFox to be a small, unintrusive but very efficient tool. This was our goal from the very beginnning.

Keep track on a busy matchday.

For each league you are interested in you are provided with a score board which contains current and recent matches. It’s left to your personal preference what elements you want to be displayed on this board to get the quickest overview possible.

You work, we entertain you.

From now on, you no longer need to frequent live ticker pages and refresh them regularily to keep up with your favorite league. You can stay focused on your work, FootieFox will let you know when your team scores! When a goal is scored an alert slider pops up which indicates the scoring team. Additionally, an audible alert can be played. As long as your Firefox browser is running, this works whatever else you might be doing. Even if it’s watching a DVD.

Of course, these settings are configurable. If you prefer to hear a cow moo rather than our standard sound for instance, take this one.


FootieFox adapts to your location.

When following a soccer league from abroad, this feature can be very handy: Kick-off times are indicated in local time! So if you are Canada-based, for instance, and you would like to follow the World Cup which takes place in Germany, FootieFox will conveniently provide you with the start times for each single match converted to your local time zone.

The current version comes with language packages for Bulgarian, Catalan, Czech, Danish, Dutch, English, German, Finnish, French, Frisian, Greek, Italian, Polnish, Portuguese, Simplified Chinese, Slovak, Spanish and Russian.
