### 3/5 — Great app but it’s missing changing the score.

*2024-07-26, version 5.2.37*

I use this for rugby but I can’t change the score. Sometimes, our player doesn’t make the conversion kick and I need to change the score.

### 4/5 — AWESOME…but a update would be nice

*2022-11-07, version 5.2.34*

This app is like the best scoreboard app! The ONLY reason why I gave it four stars is because I would like an update. 

Thank you!

But again, this is pretty cool!

### 4/5 — Good, but could be better

*2019-04-16, version 5.2.9*

Maybe an option to change scoreboard? Or to add logos? Other than that pretty good

### 3/5 — Ok but won’t save

*2019-02-16, version 5.2.8*

Thought this would be cool but went back later to start game and all the changes I made to set up game were gone. Start all over again. Don’t wanna do that each time.

### 4/5 — The baseball

*2019-02-11, version 5.2.8*

The baseball one needs innings strikes balls outs and bases

### 4/5 — Good but could be improved

*2019-02-03, version 5.2.8*

I like this scoreboard but two things could make it better
1. Save the time of custom matches as it defaults back to the original after a match 
2. Allow user to change background so we can set it as a stadium scoreboard 
3. Allow user to load team logos
Thanks

### 4/5 — Seems really good

*2018-09-08, version 5.2.6*

Will be using this “in anger” for the first time while reffing a Rugby match later today.  The only thing that scares me is not being able to roll back the score if I add too many points to either team. Could this be an option on a future update please?

### 5/5 — Scoreboard Design

*2018-03-19, version 5.2.5*

I think the scoreboard design right now is great but there should be an option where you can change the scoreboard design

### 5/5 — Lovely

*2018-01-28, version 5.2.4*

This is a good tool

### 3/5 — Great app... but missing tennis!

*2018-01-21, version 5.2.4*

I love this app and regularly use it when scoring for official matches with schools/uni sports. However I’d love for tennis to be added to the game.

### 5/5 — OH MY GOD

*2017-11-12, version 5.2.2*

This is the best app I have ever used. THANK YOU!😃

*2017-10-24, version 5.2.0*

Easy to use. Thoroughly recommend it.

### 5/5 — Great app

*2017-03-18, version 5.0.1*

Prompt support from the dev team to add netball. Thanks!

### 5/5 — GREAT

*2017-01-19, version 5.0.1*

Great app just needs to have a wider range of sports and think about more less know sports like lacrosse and Gaelic sports

### 5/5 — This app is jolly!

*2016-12-16, version 5.0*

Really easy to use, and a super way to share scores with pals

### 4/5 — Simple and Easy to use

*2016-10-27, version 4.0.9*

Great tool simple no nonsense app that allows score keeping between 2 players. They are adding teams later 😃

Best scoreboard game available

### 1/5 — Bad Update

*2017-01-20, version 5.0.1*

I used to really like this app, but the updated layout made the numbers so small there aren't readable from more than 5' away. A LOT of unused screen space!

### 1/5 — Custom

*2017-01-02, version 5.0*

Please add a custom option! I used to always use this app but now I can't. I do like 4 minute halves and I can't find anything that is close to that.

### 1/5 — Score

*2014-02-03, version 3.1*

I can't figure out how to change the score

### 1/5 — Stupid

*2013-07-05, version 3.1*

This is stupid

### 1/5 — Unhappy 714

*2013-05-03, version 3.1*

Does not work!  Don't pay for this app!  Please FIX!!!

### 1/5 — Not a good thing to get

*2013-02-10, version 3.1*

It doesn't work at all. I wouldn't get this app.

### 1/5 — No timer.

*2011-04-20, version 1.2*

I was looking for a timer also. Didn't get one here. Please add as update.

### 1/5 — Score

*2011-02-13, version 1.1*

Very bad. There is no point to it. It is the worst app I have ever downloaded.

### 2/5 — Needs more basic features

*2020-08-29, version 5.2.18*

You can’t zero the score or subtract points. Names and colours don’t save and the default Home v Away can’t be changed. When those bugs are sorted it will be perfect and I’ll send money. :)

### 2/5 — Updates Needed

*2011-06-23, version 1.3*

Even with the newest update- there are a few things missing. A 'Clear Button' would be nice....

Also, using a single hand to reach for the +/- buttons, my lower palm keeps contacting the title icon, pausing the app and takes me to their website. Move the title icon or place it somewhere else- make it smaller, please.

## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated)

### 5/5 — Best app

*2023-04-11, version 5.2.34*

Best Scoreboard app I’ve ever used

### 5/5 — I love it so much is the best scoreboard I ever have on my phone

*2022-08-25, version 5.2.33*

I like it this is the best

### 5/5 — Bob

*2021-03-13, version 5.2.30*

Great

### 5/5 — Great but needs improvements

*2020-12-05, version 5.2.27*

I gave it 5 stars but there is 1 thing. You need a up arrow for the score to go up and one for it to go down. Other than that it’s a good app

### 5/5 — Great, but...

*2020-09-04, version 5.2.18*

I like the scoreboard! But can you make ALL sports inside it, please and thank you?

### 5/5 — Splendid

*2020-08-27, version 5.2.18*

Just dowloaded it on the ipad. Using it really easy. Great job

### 5/5 — love the app... but,

*2019-10-11, version 5.2.11*

hello, i am a long term user of the scoreboard app. I was wondering if additions are still being added to the app. if so, more fonts and looks added tot it he app would be cool and to have a choice between fonts. also when you make a team color white, the name becomes black instead of white and being invisible. thank you.

### 5/5 — Good

*2018-12-28, version 5.2.7*

I love it, it does everything a scoreboard should do. The only thing I would like to be added is to add a picture in the scoreboard.

### 5/5 — Volleyball

*2018-06-16, version 5.2.6*

Perfect

### 5/5 — Great for straight pool

*2018-04-19, version 5.2.5*

I love to play Straight Pool, but never could find a good scoreboard until this app. I use it all the time as I have a table. I love it, ‘The Hustler’ lives on.
