User reviews

The only scoring app my family uses!!

This is so genius. I love how it takes into consideration all of the different aspects that go into scoring for any game, and how you can set all of your own rules. It’s seriously so cool, and my family has used this app for years. Very clever.

Great app, many thanks!

Have been using this app for many years, and it just works very well. Easy to set up users, new games, different scoring systems, etc.

Still hoping for a mechanism to set up team games, where individuals are added to a team, and then the team is the "player" in a game. The game stats would be added to both the teams and individuals, which would be great for games like Tichu, Bridge, Canasta where the team wins or loses, but individual win/loss stats are also interesting.

Favorite score keeper

This is the BEST app and we’ve been using it for years. Many people download it after they see how it works. 100% recommend. Good for iPad or iPhone.

We use it for a variety of games and I love how it saves the rules and players for future games or even to pause and resume a game later.
Five Crowns, dominoes, SkyJo, Flip7, UNO, golf, etc.
2 player or multiplayer.
High or low score winner.
Fun you can save player profiles and add photos.

Best, just the best

Love the app so much so I’ve donated. No more need for any paper for any tracking for anything.

Works great!

The template capability is very useful. I have setup templates for Qwirkle, Five Crowns, Qwidler, and Mexican Train dominoes.
