CiStoFree for iPhone and Android
Round up a game.
Know who's in.
CiSto is the easiest way to get a game together. Invite friends to a tee time, a pickleball match, or pickup basketball; they reply from their phone; the event closes when the spots fill.
“Ci sto” is Italian for “I'm in.” No group texts required.
How it works
Three taps from “anyone up for golf?” to a full foursome.
Create the game
Pick the activity, where and when, and how many players you need. Make it repeat if it's a regular thing.
Invite your people
Choose from your contacts, type an email, or tap a saved group. They get an email and a push if they have the app.
Watch the spots fill
Friends reply from the app or straight from the email. You get a push with every answer, and the game closes when it's full.
New
Reply from the email. No app needed.
Invite anyone. The email they get has the details and two buttons, and their answer shows up in your app the moment they tap. When they want to host their own game, that's when they install CiSto.
- Works in any browser, on any phone
- Waitlist and drop-out handled the same way
- Their replies carry over when they get the app
Built for the person who organizes
Less texting back and forth. More playing.
Friends reply from their inbox
No app? No problem. Every invite email has one-tap I'm in / Can't make it buttons. Replies land in the app instantly.
Games that repeat themselves
Make it weekly, every two weeks, or monthly. When one game ends, the next one is created and the same crew is invited.
A waitlist that manages itself
Once the spots fill, late accepters go on the waitlist. If someone drops out, the next person moves up and gets a push.
One message board per game
"Running 10 min late" reaches exactly the people playing. No group chat, no wrong thread.
Groups for your regulars
Save the Saturday golf crew or the Tuesday hoops group once. Next time, invite everyone with one tap.
Invite from your contacts
Pick people from your address book or type an email. Your contacts stay on your phone; only the people you choose are invited.
Replies as they happen
Get a push when someone's in or out, when a spot opens, and when the last spot fills and the game is on.
Your game, your people
Every game is private to the people you invited. Report or block anyone from a message; the host can remove anyone.
No passwords
Sign in with a link sent to your email. Nothing to remember, nothing to leak.
Questions
Do my friends need the app?
No. Everyone you invite gets an email with I'm in and Can't make it buttons that work in any browser. They only need the app to host their own games.
Is it free?
Yes. CiSto is free on iPhone and Android, with no ads.
What happens when the game is full?
It closes, everyone is told, and anyone who accepts after that joins a waitlist. If a player drops out, the first person on the waitlist is moved in automatically.
Can I run the same game every week?
Yes. Set a game to repeat weekly, every two weeks, or monthly. When it's over, the next one is created at the same time and place and your regulars are invited again.
What do you do with my contacts?
Nothing leaves your phone except the name and email of the people you actually pick. See the privacy policy for the full picture.
