User reviews

Free but practically speaking it requires payment

The design is reasonable but it’s clear that the dev bends over backwards to require payment for this app. For example, don’t dare to close the app in the middle of a game, it won’t save your scores… I guess you need to pay for that part…

Please add opening ranges for Hand and Foot Canasta

Please add ranges for Hand and Foot and points for special hands in American canasta. Points and special hands should be modified by the player

Otherwise I enjoy the app.

Problem with hosting a connection

I purchased the $4.99 and $.99 versions of the app and cannot host a game. The screen is frozen and will not scroll to allow other players to join a connection.

Seems fine

I bought the unlock right away, only to find out I could adjust the rules to the way we play. Very disappointed.

Response from developer

The two in-app purchases are clearly defined within Canasta Score Keeper and are also explained in the App’s Welcome Screens (“Permanent Storage/Ad removal” and “Connect to nearby devices”). Storing personal rules for scoring is already available in the free version, which makes us think you might be confusing Canasta Score Keeper with another App. If that is the case, we would appreciate if you could adjust/remove your rating for our App.

Doesn’t save???

It’s a good score keeper however it doesn’t save when you close the app?? So then you have to re-entrer all your scores. Bit of a stupid feature I think.

Response from developer

As highlighted in the Welcome Screens (and actually every time you open the App 😉), the free version does not support permanent storing of games/scores. The in-App purchases “Store Permanently and no Ads!” will enable this feature and also bring back previously (unsaved) games. Data is permanently stored when closing/reopening the App as long as the App is not completely uninstalled from your iPhone. If this solves your problem, we would appreciate if you would adjust your rating.
