### 4/5 — Nearly perfect

*2025-11-28, version 3.5.5*

Love this app for game score keeping. Just wish it either had larger buttons/number pad or a settings option to have larger buttons larger. I don’t have large hands and I find it too easy to hit the wrong number because the numbers are just too small. Other than that, it’s great.

### 4/5 — Great app

*2024-12-20, version 3.5.4*

Games are keeping us sane during quarantine. This app is great for keeping score

### 5/5 — Best score keeping app

*2020-12-18, version 3.2.2*

By far the best app for scoring, we play a lot of yanith (playing card game) and the graph is the best thing about it, love seeing when people hit 50/100 and lose half their points on the graph. Awesome just awesome

### 5/5 — Awesome Functional App

*2020-12-11, version 3.2.2*

It does just what it says. Can use for any game you need to keep track of. Very versatile.

### 5/5 — Great way to keep scores, especially with large numbers:)

Exactly what I was looking for. Well made.

### 4/5 — Great game

*2020-07-04, version 3.2.1*

My only issue with the game is the fact that im unable to to access history without premium membership. Other than that, it’s great. Would recommend.

### 5/5 — AMAZING!!

I love this app!

Trop bien ça fait 1an que je cherche un jeu comme ca

### 5/5 — Best Score Keeper Ever

*2020-01-03, version 3.0.3*

I love this app. It makes playing games that you have to score 100% more enjoyable.

### 4/5 — Great App

*2019-11-17, version 3.0.3*

its a rlly well done app to keep scores but it would be awesome if we can like put pictures or some sort of profiles in our names and stuff

### 5/5 — Best game score tracker available

*2019-10-23, version 3.0.2*

When I decided to get an app for scoring my games I looked at the apps available, chose what looked like the best two, and bought them both so I could experience them and have the best. 
  I chose this one for its intuitive interface, ease of use, flexibility, and because it does nearly everything a person could want in a score keeping app.  The second best thing you can have in ANY app is responsive support.  When I had a question I used the “Contact Support” option and the author responded quickly with an answer and a possible added option in a future update. The software and the support both get 5 stars from me.

### 1/5 — Waste of Money

*2022-04-14, version 3.4.2*

They charged me $6 making me believe that this would open up new options but it doesn't. 
You can't edit anything. 
You can't name the games, go back and change something, you can't add old game stats for record. 
It's useless. 
Wish I could get my money back.

### 1/5 — Locked and lost score

*2020-10-30, version 3.2.1*

Did not get through first game. Without any history

### 1/5 — Not a reliable app.

*2018-06-03, version 2.5.3*

We were in middle of a game and the app started to drop our scores ans showing some ild previous scores. Fortunately we all remember our individual scores andable to get it tracked on paper.

### 1/5 — Watch app not worth it

*2017-05-09, version 2.2*

It's a cool concept but there's no way to switch players on the watch. The intent was to use this for family bocce ball scoring. Not going to work.

### 1/5 — You had one job

*2016-03-17, version 2.1*

We noticed a lag when calculating, so some scores weren't added. We went back to pen and paper!

### 1/5 — Not very sleek

*2015-03-04, version 1.7*

Hard to have to switch between screens and wait for an annoying delay for the score to register

### 2/5 — Frustrating and not intuitive

*2022-05-28, version 3.4.2*

Putting points in is not intuitive, especially if you need to switch between positive and negative scores. I was constantly struggling to put in the right numbers and then after making mistakes, had a very difficult time undoing it. Maybe the paid version is better but I have been consistently infuriated by the way this app works. The only thing it has going for it is that switching to the next player after inputting score is cool.

### 2/5 — Good overall, but can suddenly crash

*2021-05-14, version 3.2.3*

In general I really like this scoring app, but unfortunately it can spontaneously crash/quit in the middle of a game, and the accurate scores are lost when you restart. Since this has happened now a number of times, I’ve switched to another scoring app that doesn’t crash. Nice interface and design though. Wish you could customize the colors...and that it was actually dependable!

### 3/5 — A good start with good potential, but really basic…

*2021-09-05, version 3.3*

I got this app to keep scores and this one looked the most straightforward. To be fair, it performs its basic functions smoothly without glitches, but it’s really limited in its capacity. It would be really helpful if you could:
- Add more/edit players after starting a game,
- Edit player order after starting a game,
- Customise the scoring system buttons yourself,
- Start a game on your iPhone and sync it with your Apple Watch (currently you have to edit it all on your watch, which is hard. Plus once you select a number of players, you cannot add more players without resetting the entire game,
- Save names/games for later use.
I would use this app heaps if it was more versatile, but currently it’s only really useful for basic games.

### 3/5 — A bit confusing but otherwise good

*2020-05-30, version 3.2.1*

I like this app, but..... it has issues

For some reason, with two players, there are 4 scorecards. Visually distracting and confusing. Each player score appears on 2 cards.  Better to have one card per person

The active players card is displayed in the center of the screen with an arrow in each top corner.  Better to highlight the active card with a border or more visible icon. Maybe use larger font on active card.

I wish I could change the color of the cards to match the color of the pawns being used by that player, and use a more neutral background color.

I wish the player name was in a larger font too.

With a few interface enhancements this would be the perfect app I would pay for it. 

The buttons are a great interface, the automatic turn change is nice, simple to use!

### 5/5 — Add a way to pick who goes first…

### 5/5 — points

*2022-03-11, version 3.4.1*

it helps when your learning you litlle ones giving them a rewareds

### 5/5 — Great alternative to a notepad!

*2021-10-30, version 3.3*

I discovered this app on a recent holiday when the continuous rain meant we had a games night most evenings.  We didn’t have a pad and pen handy and totting up the scores is a bit of a chore so downloaded this instead.  It works great, the interface is clean and using it was so simple. For a free app, I’m delighted and may get the in-app purchase for history.

### 5/5 — Super app !

*2021-10-16, version 3.3*

Seul petit bémol : la partie se met en pause si on appuie sur résultat.

### 5/5 — Great app

*2021-02-13, version 3.2.2*

We use this all the time for keeping score on our games. Easy to use. Plus worth getting the premium version to keep a record of scores

### 5/5 — Good app

*2021-01-30, version 3.2.2*

Works well and does what it needs to.  Non intrusive and no sounds and crazy on screen ads.  Good stuff.  

One feature I would like is the ability to simply show all scores on the screen at once.  Even if they are smaller tiles in two rows. With 6 player the tiles do this sort of odd disappearing on one side and reappear on the other - it is not smooth like a photo carrousel.  Makes changing scores in non-turn based games a bit cumbersome.   
It also make it so I can’t display the score and let everyone see where they stand.  Someone is always asking for me to swipe to see whoever is off screens score.  

Second feature I would like is for each score tile to show the last change or two.  So when I am looking at the state of the game I can see why score is 200, and in the corner in smaller font would be (+25) or whatever showing that I had just gotten to 200 by getting 25 points.  

Thank you
