This is a great app, don't be fooled by all those negative ratings!!
It's unfortunate that this app has gotten so many 1-star ratings. Clearly almost all of those people were looking for a yahtzee game but didn't read that it's a scoresheet.
IF YOU ARE LOOKING FOR A YAHTZEE GAME, I've also downloaded Yachats made by the same people, which is a perfect rendition of Yahtzee. It's exactly what this app would be if it were a game.
In any case this app is perfect. I was looking for an easy way to keep score of Yahtzee games I was playing with friends and family and this is *exactly* what I was looking for. You can keep track of everyone's score simultaneously (up to 5 people), it keeps a running tally of how close each person is to the 35-point bonus, it's really quick and easy to put in the scores, plus it even looks nice.
The scores for each person at the top of the screen turn orange when all their scores are filled in which is handy to be able to tell who's finished. If you put the score in a wrong place or put in a wrong score or something, you can just double-tap the category to clear it. And that's another thing - you can enter scores freely for anyone, there's nothing that makes it auto-move to a different person or assume anything you don't want it to, which is really nice.
And anyway it's FREE. Download it!
The sad thing is that the fact that it's free probably has a lot to do with all the negative ratings - people probably just downloaded it in a free-app-downloading frenzy (which is what I tend to do) without reading or caring since it was free, thinking it was a game. BOO
