## What is Backlo?

Backlo is the tournament manager and scorekeeper built for backyard sports.

BUILT FOR ORGANIZERS
Your first tournament includes Pro so you can prove Backlo works for a real event. Backlo Pro adds recurring organizer tools: future tournaments, seasons, templates, CSV roster import, locked tournaments, kiosk mode, advanced formats, forfeit, walkover, substitute, and event-day controls.

PRIVACY-FIRST
No accounts. No tracking. No ad SDKs. Backlo is local-first and only uses iCloud sharing when you choose to make a game shareable.

ACCESSIBLE OUTSIDE
Large tap targets, Outdoor Mode, Dynamic Type support, VoiceOver labels, haptics, undo, and clear event status help the organizer keep moving even when the sun is bright and the bracket is busy.

Backlo is free to start. Your first tournament is free. Pro is for recurring organizers.
