### 4/5 — Good but small font

*2026-02-28*

I really like this app but at my advanced age I really struggle to read the small numbers to see the total scores. I REALLY wish there would be an update to correct this.

### 1/5 — Very poor game

*2025-09-19*

This game won’t start.  It’s dumb.

### 3/5 — Only for 3 players & not editable

*2025-07-30*

This app is OK if you only have three players. You cannot add a fourth player and you cannot edit the titles of the scoring categories. 
Also There is no option for 100 points for picking exactly 22 cards.
If you could edit the titles for different house rules and add a fourth player, I would give this five stars.

### 1/5 — Can’t even get it to start a game

*2025-02-23, version 1.0.10*

At first this app was great. I used it all the time. But lately i can not even get it to start. Bad value.

### 5/5 — Still Crashes

*2025-02-17*

Great App but has been crashing with lates ios update.  Please fix.  We are crippled without it.

### 1/5 — Only 3 players?

*2024-05-27, version 1.0.9*

I paid and can’t use it- please add more players!

### 1/5 — Does not work on iPhones

*2024-04-20*

I bought the app and tested it before playing a game with friends. I asked my friend to buy it also. My friends app did not work. Many of the input cells were black and prevented input. When tried to score with the app it was fine on meld 50 and 90. Then on Meld 120 all input fields turned black and the cells prevented input. Save your money and use paper or MS Excel.

### 1/5 — No score

*2024-02-15*

This app don’t let you find your score. The screen was blank under configuration. It doesn’t put the score in the bottom portion of the page “score values”. Wouldn’t buy this, wish I hadn’t wasted my money!!!

### 1/5 — Hand and Foot Calculator

*2023-11-30*

This app no longer works. You can enter data but it does not render the score and/or data.  And it is an app that requires a purchase. Although it is a 3yr old app, it should not be allowed to remain on the App Store if it doesn’t work.

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work in dark mode

*2023-08-21*

Was using the app and it worked initially. When my phone switched to DARK MODE, none of the scores showed up. Afterwords I found out that the app doesn’t show scores in dark mode.  Very stupid error in app. Fix this and I’d give it 5 stars.
