### 2/5 — Good features but ...

*2019-06-02, version 4.5.4*

Good app but having same issue as another user ... in pairs cricket, if you go back to amend an over with a wicket, the totals don’t reconcile anymore and there’s no way to fix it.  Embarrassing to send out pdf to all the parents with mistakes in it ... please address this bug.

### 3/5 — Changes needed

*2018-10-12, version 4.5.4*

App looks great - just a couple of tweaks needed - how does one side declare their innings and it would be great if you could add runs scored off a wide (which happens a lot in junior cricket)

### 5/5 — Great app

*2016-05-17, version 4.3.7*

Add few more things in this how to know overall in all players leading run scorer and wicket taker only in tournament we r getting leading run scorer n wicket taker

### 5/5 — Excellent app

*2016-04-21, version 4.3.3*

Best for cricket scoring

### 4/5 — Latest update

*2016-04-12, version 4.3.1*

Fellas,

Your latest update has gone all awry. Cannot get a game set up. Any reasons why?

### 4/5 — How can I reverse the latest update

*2016-04-08, version 4.3.1*

The scoring till latest update was excellent. Now the scenes r awful and let me know whether u r updating or fixing this issue

### 5/5 — The best cricket scoring app around

*2016-02-24, version 4.2.9*

I have tested many apps but I have been using this app for a number of years now including juniors and seniors scoring.  The app is very stable and quite easy to use and I have received great support from the developers over the years.  A feature I'd like to see is dropped catches recorded.

### 5/5 — Mr

*2015-10-30, version 4.2.8*

Hi

Great app. Easy to use. No issues really.

Is it possible to create a summary page of the games that are in progress or completed.

Just an indication of the top 4 batsman and bowlers from each team and then a note of the games current situation.

Also when will it be possible to upload the match on to the web for live scoring.

Thanks
Kay

### 3/5 — Customer service needs improvement !

*2015-09-19, version 4.2.8*

We have been using this app for some years now. Overall our experience is ok, but we have never gotten ANY response for ANY question or issue. Not to mention that there is NO phone number where one can call for customer support.

Anyways, with all the good features, one persistent problem we have is that it slows down tremendously during use and takes forever to input any entry. 

We even tried using a different (newer) ipad with no avail. 

We hope that this review will not land on deaf ears like past.

Thanks

### 4/5 — Great App

*2015-09-03, version 4.2.8*

This app is almost perfect, it is great for scoring almost any format of a cricket match. The pdf file the app produces, along with the HTML and other file it makes are brilliant for sending to players and putting on Twitter/websites. The only thing I would recommend for this app is support for live tweeting, where the app composes tweets for you to send via your club Twitter account to keep people updated. I recommend paying the extra for this app.

### 5/5 — Very useful and easy to use

*2015-07-13, version 4.2.8*

I’ve used this for almost a year now, and found it to be very reliable and easy to setup and use. Good statistics, good reports, very well done.

### 4/5 — Good but not perfect

*2015-06-14, version 4.2.7*

Very good scoring app... But some issues for example on how to record a short run with batsmen crossed.

Also it would be handy to have a game template to use every time instead of having to setup a new game with customised parameters for each new game.

A print out / output using traditional scoring book display would be very handy as the game can then be transcribed into the teams official manual scorebook instead of having to do both together!

### 5/5 — Great and works for kid cricket

*2015-06-13, version 4.2.7*

Excellent app. I have tried a few and this allows for all sorts of combination of scoring schemes used in young persons cricket. It is also very easy to edit any mistakes during or after the match (by the scorers not the players !!)
Scoring used to be a run and hide moment with my parents, now anyone can do it. They just need to know what byes etc. are.

Do the developers respond to emails?

Sent several emails about issues but not had any replies

### 1/5 — Slow game

*2020-09-25, version 4.7.0*

The new update has made the game so slow. There’s no point in playing it only. U start playing and it becomes so slow so I stop playing. Fix it

### 1/5 — App doesn't work

*2016-04-12, version 4.3.1*

Since the last update (4.3.1) the app will not let you score on it

Before this update was working fine

### 1/5 — Does not work

*2016-04-10, version 4.3.1*

Updated to 4.3.1, app will not let you score matches. Please fix asap as this app was good before!!!

### 1/5 — Bad last update

*2016-04-09, version 4.3.1*

The scoring screen is bad after last update. Cant see anything properly. All. Uttons seems big. Please fix it

### 1/5 — Most flexible app

*2015-09-10, version 4.2.8*

Very bad support.

this is THE app to banish those tedious score sheets forever!!  After using for 3 seasons now, its the only intuitive app that understand cricket, great work by the NX team, thanks

### 1/5 — Total Waste Of Money.

*2013-06-05, version 4.0.5*

Wasted my 750 Rs.

It took me a while to figure out as to how to actually scorekeep the match.

UX is too bad - It's very much Cluttered.

I want my money back.

### 1/5 — A total waste

*2012-06-02, version v3.0.4*

Waste of money. Very hard to use

### 5/5 — Live scoring link

*2025-02-12, version 4.8.3*

This app is excellent, but we had to change apps as our parents could not follow live scoring like the Stumps app providing. Please look at adding a feature for live score follow where one could share a link

### 5/5 — Great Scoring App But

*2024-10-31, version 4.8.3*

This app is very easy to use, with a great layout which helps a lot when running a Score Box. Only problem I have found is, when scoring Penalty Runs, the Total is not updated on the running total on the right of the Screen! Also no answer from the Developers to my emails, and no updates for 3 Years. The Developers seriously need to update this app, they seem to have abandoned this App why?

### 5/5 — Great Scoring App But

### 5/5 — The best by far

*2021-08-17, version 4.8.3*

The entire interface, function, editing and reporting assets are far beyond all other scoring apps. Only needs one update, the ability to have the fielder AND assist in run out scenarios. Having an MVP calculator would be fantastic in calculating player ranking. Only one gripe, the app is definitely slowing down on my iPad Mini 2. Every delivery takes so long to update it actually spills into the next ball😳

### 5/5 — Truly the best scoring app

*2020-10-17, version 4.7.0*

Used for many years now. I’m in Australia and it’s much better than MyCricket. Clear displays. Easy to go back and fix errors. My wish list?
- integration with MyCricket in Australia
- ability to add assisted run outs (fielder 1/fielder 2)
- ability to annotate (e.g. dropped catch)
- wagon wheel where the ball was caught for dismissals
- allow for 4 runs all run (not boundary)

### 5/5 — Team Badges

*2019-12-27, version 4.5.5*

Please Allow Team logos for example South Africa 🇿🇦, you could put the south african flag

### 5/5 — Best App

*2019-10-04, version 4.5.5*

Nice & user friendly app for scoring and all

### 5/5 — Brilliant

*2019-01-06, version 4.5.4*

Best Cricket scoreboard in the world just can you add the DLS method and DLS par score Thanks

### 5/5 — Setting Error

*2018-05-11, version 4.5.3*

After the match result when I am clicking on setting app gone closed

### 5/5 — Best cricket scoring app

*2018-05-07, version 4.5.2*

I tried all the cricket scoring apps out there and this is the most versatile and user friendly of them all. Can’t go wrong with it
