## What is Padel & Tennis Scoreboard?

Every court deserves a scoreboard — yours is now the phone at the side of it.

This app turns the phone at the side of the court into a real scoreboard.
You enter points with a cheap Bluetooth remote and hear the score out loud.
Nobody stops mid-match to argue about the score again.

HOW IT WORKS
• Press the Bluetooth remote to score — no need to touch the phone
• The score is announced out loud: "thirty - forty"
• The announcer adds colour at the big moments and chats between sets
• Mount the phone courtside; the screen stays on and reads from metres away
• Got a smartwatch? Score from your wrist: points, whose serve and which side (Apple Watch)
• No remote? Tap the screen instead

TOURNAMENT MODE — AMERICANO AND MEXICANO
Run your club's tournament from your phone: Americano or Mexicano; individual,
fixed pairs or mixed doubles. Players join with a code and follow their own
match and ranking from their own phone.
• Rounds and pairings are built for you; you pick who keeps the score
• Standings, points and medals update live
• Your club logo and sponsor images appear on the tournament screens and the live board
• Read player names from a photo: snap the club's list and let the names fill in
• If the court loses signal the score is kept on the phone and syncs when it returns
• Export the results as CSV
The live board is at skortabelasi.com/t/CODE — put it on the screen by the court.

FULL PADEL, TENNIS & PICKLEBALL RULES
• Golden point (default) or advantage
• Tie-break, super tie-break, deciding game, advantage set
• Adjustable set length and number of sets, plus an unlimited mode
• Four-player serve rotation — always know who serves next
• Change-ends reminder
• Unlimited undo

PICKLEBALL
The full rulebook: side-out serving (only the serving team scores), games to 11/15/21, best of 3, server number. The announcer calls it the pickleball way: "4-3-2".

AMERICANO MATCH TYPE
Club doesn't run its tournament in the app? Play an Americano match on its own: one match to 16/21/24/32 points, no games or sets, the serve rotates every 2 or 4 points, a draw is possible.

WORKS WITH ANY REMOTE
Not tied to one brand: "Learn key" records what your remote actually sends. On a single button, one click is your point, two clicks theirs, hold to undo.

YOUR MATCH IS NEVER LOST
Close the app or let the phone die — the match resumes where it left off, and recent matches stay in history.

FOUR LANGUAGES, REAL ANNOUNCER VOICES
Turkish, English, French and Spanish — interface and announcements. Two announcer voices per language. Two languages on court? Turn on the second announcement language and every score is called in both.

PICK YOUR COMMENTATOR'S STYLE
Same voice, three attitudes: Sharp (teases the losing side), Balanced (classic commentary), Warm (looks after both sides). Turkish announcements for now; other languages are next.

ACCOUNT IS OPTIONAL
The app is fully usable without an account and asks for no personal details. If you create one (a code sent to your e-mail, no password): your settings and match history follow you across devices, you add friends by QR code or invite link, matches you play together land in both histories, and a friend can watch your score live on their own phone.

The free version shows a short ad when a match ends — never mid-game. The Ad-Free subscription removes ads entirely; you pay with one tap through the store.

Tournament Pro and Tournament Elite make the tournament bigger: more players and courts, club logo and name, sponsor images and the sponsor report. The free tier still runs a tournament with four players on one court.

Subscriptions (Ad-Free, Tournament Pro, Tournament Elite; monthly or yearly) renew automatically. The price is shown on the purchase screen; cancel any time in your App Store account settings.
