We will keep updating to make your bowling more enjoyable. Please continue your support and referrals. ### 5/5 — Ok *2024-12-28* Good **Developer response:** Thank you for using our app. We hope you continue to enjoy bowling and the app! ### 5/5 — とても良い *2024-12-21, version 1.22.1* アップデートが多くてとても便利です。 現在最新版で、10フレームの1投目でストライク、2投目でスプリットの場合に、丸がつきません。 対応お願いいたします。 ### 5/5 — Options *2024-11-24* Totally worth it to buy. Especially if you are trying to improve your game. M **Developer response:** Thank you for your review. We will continue to improve our service to help everyone enhance their game. If you don’t mind, please share it with your friends or on social media—we’d be thrilled if you could use it together! ### 5/5 — Great app but needs a larger ball library. *2024-10-28* This is a great app, but of the 3 balls I use I can only track my new ball since the other 2 balls are from 2010 and 1985. **Developer response:** Thank you for using our app. Please take a picture of the ball you are using and register it so we can track your score. ### 5/5 — Nice App *2024-10-25* Love the features so far **Developer response:** Thank you for using our app. We will continue to develop features that make bowling even more enjoyable, so we appreciate your support. We’d be grateful if you could share the app with your friends and family! ### 5/5 — Great app to track games and scoring trends *2024-10-11* I’ve been using this app for a little over a month to keep track of my league bowling and have found it straightforward to use with an easy to understand interface and some useful at a glance metrics of averages and high and low scores. Would like to see some more comparison capabilities week to week and the ability to do custom ranges vs just monthly in the metrics. **Developer response:** Thank you for using our app. We’re glad to hear that you’re enjoying bowling through our app. Thank you for your suggestion about adding a feature to compare results over a custom period. We will consider this for future updates. We appreciate your continued support! ### 4/5 — Love this app *2024-10-08* I love this app. It is so easy to keep your score. I only have 1 issue and that it would be nice to be able to show splits in the frames. **Developer response:** Thank you for using our app. While split detection is automatically done for pin input, it is not yet available for frame-by-frame input. We plan to release this feature in November or December, so please stay tuned. > April 17, 2025 We have released a function that allows you to enter splits. Please update to the latest version. If you are satisfied with the new version, please change your review to 5 star. Thank you for your continued support. ### 5/5 — Wow *2024-09-28* I didn’t think I’d like an app like this this much and now idk what I’d do without it. I would be so upset to lose all my stats. Grateful for this app and all its features! **Developer response:** Thank you so much for the kind words! We’d really appreciate it if you could share the app with your friends or on social media, so more people who love bowling can discover it. Thanks for always using the app, and we look forward to your continued support! ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Why do you need Credit Card info *2025-01-25* This is a free app and says CC will not be charged. So why are you asking for this? **Developer response:** This app is available for anyone to use free of charge. Furthermore, any in-app payments are entirely optional and are only initiated if the user chooses them within the app. We have made many features available at no cost in the hope of encouraging as many people as possible to enjoy bowling. If you have any other questions, please feel free to let us know at any time. ### 2/5 — mistake *2026-01-15* why can’t i delete prior scores?? im trying to track my season averages and total pin count, but my last session (test session) ruined all of it. i can’t delete it **Developer response:** Thank you for your review. Since our app manages pitching data on a "per-day" basis, you can correct your statistics by either deleting the data for that specific date or overwriting it with the correct data. We apologize for the inconvenience, but could you please try this method? We will continue to improve the app to make it even more user-friendly. Thank you for your support. ### 3/5 — ボウリング場を地図上で探しているとクラッシュして落ちる *2025-08-19, version 1.35.0* アプリを使用していて最近頻繁にマップを見ているとクラッシュして落ちます。改善していただけると嬉しいです。 ### 3/5 — 良いけど『現状』rank seeker shelfにはなれない *2025-07-15* rank seeker shelfのサービス終了日が固まり、類似アプリとして推奨されたものの…。 全体的な見やすさなどはとても良いと思います。特にスコア管理関係は良さそうです。 が、ボールに焦点を合わせた機能がイマイチで、『現状』 shelfの代わりにはならないなと思いました。 あちらのようにボールスペック検索やマイボールスペックのリスト化、トレンドなどの機能も追加していただければ非常に嬉しく思います。 過去ボールまで洗い出すのは非常に手間だとは思いますがまだ入手しやすい2023年頃以降のボールだけでもあると助かります **Developer response:** Rankseeker Shelfの移行先としてご検討いただきありがとうございます！ これまでの機能をカバーできるよう少しずつ改善してまいりますが、「ボウリングを楽しむ」ことを優先して運営していますのでご理解いただけますと幸いです。 この度は貴重なご意見をありがとうございます。 引き続きよろしくお願いいたします。 ### 3/5 — スコアエラー？ *2024-11-12* 10フレームの2投目がストライク以外だった場合のMAX計算がおかしい？ **Developer response:** ご指摘いただいた通り2投目がストライク以外の場合、最大スコア計算に不具合がありました。 この度のご指摘のおかげで早期に気付くことができ、心より感謝申し上げます。 最新のアップデートにて修正を行いましたので、お手数ではございますが、アプリの更新とレビューを再評価をしていただけますと幸いです。何卒よろしくお願いいたします。 ### 4/5 — Underrated Sleeper App *2026-05-06* Love using this app. Tested against a lot of other bowling apps but this provides exactly the data a bowler is looking for. My only downside to the app is that is does not fully count for marks in the 10th frame (if you XXX or X Spare) any additional marks outside the first ball in the 10th do not get calculated in your overall stat line. So make sure you take that into consideration when you are tracking your data to make sure you’re getting your true stats **Developer response:** Thank you for your feedback! I’m glad you enjoy the app. I have already addressed the issue regarding the 10th frame scoring, so it should be working correctly now. Please let me know if you have any further suggestions. ### 4/5 — Good but needs small updates *2026-01-12* I think this app is great I just started using it but it is not clear on what is part of the free version. But very clear on the pro I believe that a tutorial would make at least some features more easy to use but overall good app and simple to use! Plan to keep using the free version until I get more into bowling. **Developer response:** Thank you so much for your kind words and for choosing our app! To clarify, most of our core features are available in the free version, so you can get plenty of use out of it right away. Upgrading to the Pro version simply offers even more flexibility for managing your scores and stats. Whenever that bowling passion of yours fully reignites, we'll be here with those extra tools! We also appreciate your feedback regarding the tutorial. We want to make the app as intuitive as possible, so we will work on improving our guides and tutorials soon. Happy bowling! ### 4/5 — good *2025-03-23, version 1.28.0* foooddml ### 4/5 — 追加機能のお願い *2025-03-20* いつも重宝して使わせてもらっております。 表記の件ですが、月ごとのアベレージに加えて月ごとのストライク率、スペア率、オープンフレーム率、スプリット率、スペアミス率を表記してもらえると大変参考になります。お手数ですがよろしくお願い致します🙇 **Developer response:** ご利用ありがとうございます！ また、機能に関するご提案もありがとうございます。 ホーム画面にある「今月の成績」や「年度別成績」から、該当月の成績をご確認いただけますので、ぜひ一度チェックしてみてください。 今後も便利に使っていただけるよう改善していきますので、引き続きよろしくお願いします！ ### 4/5 — Nice app needs some work *2025-03-03* Very nice app. Loading games is fast and easy and I love the calendar display. I would only suggest adding a bowling ball data base for Quick Look up and specs on bowling balls. Other the that I like the app. Will keep using! **Developer response:** Thank you for using our app. We’ll look into finding a good way to implement a bowling ball database. Thank you for sharing your valuable feedback! We’re committed to maintaining a service you can be fully satisfied with, so if you don’t mind, we’d be grateful if you could share it with your friends or fellow bowlers! ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Great *2026-05-15* Love the app. Recently started keeping track of our scores and it’s great! Lets you know your avg. for different things and allows you to see what your max score could be. You can add friends and also see their scores. **Developer response:** Thank you so much for the 5-star review! We are thrilled to hear that you love the app and that you've started tracking your scores with us. It's great to know that the average analytics, max score calculation, and friend features are helping you and your friends enjoy bowling even more. We will continue to improve the app to provide the best experience possible. Happy bowling, and thank you for choosing Bosc! ### 5/5 — No habla espanol *2026-01-30, version 1.42.1* Sweet like cabbage ### 5/5 — Great *2026-01-23* One of my favorite trackers for the iPhone. Features are incredibly useful. **Developer response:** Thank you so much for your support! We are thrilled to hear that our app has become one of your favorite trackers. Our goal is to provide tools that are genuinely useful for every bowler, so knowing that you find the features helpful is the best motivation for our team. We’ll keep working hard to make the experience even better for you. High scores and happy bowling! ### 5/5 — Question *2026-01-01* Absolutely love using the app to see my progress and what I could work on. When I go to the monthly calendar and click on month results, the top bar says the title of the previous month. For example if I press on “December results” it will open and say “November Bowling Scores”. Other than that, it is a very good app! Also will the stats start a new section for the new year? **Developer response:** Thank you for using the app and for the kind feedback! The monthly title issue was likely caused by a time zone edge case around January 1st and should now be fixed in the latest version. Please update the app and check if the issue is resolved. If everything looks good, we’d really appreciate it if you could update your review. Thanks again for your support! ### 5/5 — Better than every other app I’ve tried! *2025-08-22* This app is by far is the cleanest scorekeeper app I’ve tried! I do have some thing I think that could be cool in the future. There should be a subcategory for single pin spares! So you could see your spare rate on just the single pins! Also a spare rate excluding splits would be nice so you could see what your spare rate for makables is. Another cool thing could be like a split list of all the splits you’ve left and what you’ve picked up! Just some thoughts! Love the app! **Developer response:** Thank you for using our app. Pin Leaves is now displayed on the home screen. With this feature, you can now view your past spares, so we would appreciate it if you could check it out. We would be happy if you could share it with your friends and family as well. Please continue to enjoy bowling! ### 5/5 — いいアプリ *2025-07-31* ランクシーカーさんの代わりとなるいいアプリだと思います。ボール登録をデータベース等から引っ張ってきて、名前検索で表示出来るようにして頂ければなお嬉しいです。 **Developer response:** 素敵なレビューをありがとうございます！ ボール登録について、コンテンツの準備や使用に関する確認が必要なので、お待ちいただけますと幸いです。 引き続きよろしくお願いいたします！ ### 5/5 — ラウンドワンと連携 *2025-06-16* このアプリを使い始めたばかりのもので、把握できていない点も多いと思いますが今後に向けての提案です。 ラウンドワンのアプリのマイスコアデータと連携して自動で記録してくれる機能とかあればとても理想だと思いました。色々難しい点あるかと思いますが一意見として、、。 またはスコアの画像から読み取り記録してくれるみたいな機能もあればいいなと思いました。 **Developer response:** アプリをご利用いただきありがとうございます。外部サービスとの連携についてアドバイスをいただき、ありがとうございます。 技術的な課題や費用面と相談しながら実現に向けて頑張りますので、引き続きよろしくお願いいたします！ ### 5/5 — スコア *2025-03-17, version 1.28.0* 簡単につけやしすくて良かった。 ### 5/5 — Perfect *2025-03-02* Great app **Developer response:** Thank you for reviewing our app. We’re delighted to hear you’re satisfied with our service, and our entire team is truly grateful. If you don’t mind, we’d love it if you could share it with your friends or fellow bowlers! ### 5/5 — とても良い *2025-01-30* 使い勝手がとてもいいです。 ピンの分析をしながらスクラッチAVGとトータルAVGの両方を把握したいと思うときがあるので、ゲームごとにハンディキャップスコアの設定ができるようになれば、より詳細な記録・分析ができるようになると思います。 また、画像をメモに登録できるようになれば、大会要項等の記録もできて利便性がさらに上がると思います。 **Developer response:** アプリをご利用いただきありがとうございます。 リクエストいただいた改善案について、ぜひ前向きに検討させていただければと思います。 引き続きよろしくお願いいたします。 --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
