Very good, but not perfect.
This is my favourite Pickleball scoring app. It is well thought out and works very well. I have not encountered any glitches that has caused me to delay play. It handles the scoring distractions so that I can concentrate on what is happening on the court (ex.: server clip, correct scoring slant). Even the players have commented that the game flow is better when I use the app.
As the previous reviewer stated, there are some issues that need to be addressed. I have had the same problem with the log. It needs to be better at showing the correct Server and Receiver as well as who called a Timeout. This is important in that it would allow for future electronic record to be downloaded as an official record of the match (paperless scoring).
A couple of personal preferences I would like to see is:
1. The score to be called out be more prominent than the team scores. Maybe have in a larger box that disappears when you press the PIP Button.
2. Update Rally Scoring to allow for 25 point games. Some of our Rec. groups have adopted the MLP format. I sometimes officiate their games for practice. I can accommodate the games by not completing the game, but it does slow down the flow.
Overall it is a very good app, but there is room for improvement. I look forward to the day that pickleball officials are using phones or tablets at all events.

Solid, with a couple of flaws.
I have tried this app several times in live match scenarios and it has performed well. There are a couple of issues that hopefully will be addressed in the next release:
- the log file (match summary) does not always show the appropriate server and receiver. The starting server and receiver are sometimes the only players shown as serving and receiving throughout the game.
- the log file does not show which team called a timeout.
- there is no video review support, which would be helpful for the referee to correct the score when an appeal is successful.

Awesome App
Great app for pickleball referees. After using it, you’ll never want to go back to paper scoresheets. Automatically updates matches in Pickleball Brackets point by point. Thank you TopCo.
