This app has a lot of potential
I’ll start off by saying that I have tried every bowling app out there. This one is definitely one of the better ones, however the app is obviously still in its infancy. If the developer keeps pushing it updates, based on what I’ve seen here it will be the best bowling tracker app.
First love the analysis features. One suggestion is that Spare % is not calculated by the total number of frames, but by the total number of frames in which there was a spare attempt.
Input is fairly easy. I figured out a workaround to not having an option to start with all pins down. If you click the strike, you can then select the pins that you left faster. Otherwise you will have to click every pin you knock down which can be tedious. The next point will end this work around, but it would be nice for the cursor to move to the next frame automatically.
Uses a tagging system which isn’t bad. A few apps are doing this and it works. Searching for these tags is easy also.
The biggest letdown right now in the app is there is no ball management. You can’t list out your balls, you can’t assign balls to games/ frames. This is a pretty big hole that I hope is addressed soon. The app Best Bowling does a pretty good job with ball management if looking for some inspiration.
This app is close and I’m not going to give up on it like I have others. The developer is actively pushing out updates which gives me hope.
