### 3/5 — Simple app however…

*2021-07-24, version 1.0.6*

Simple app and I do like it however if you leave the app for a while and plan to come back to your score, it doesn’t save the scores.

### 2/5 — It doesn’t save score

*2019-05-01, version 1.0.6*

I wanted to track score throughout the month but the score doesn’t save.

### 3/5 — Good but isn't reach it potential

*2017-08-02*

Great looks and easy app. One minor issue, when I exit the app and quit it completely(like clear all the app behind the background to save battery), it doesn't remember what I kept score of. In fact, it deleted all my score I had type in.

### 2/5 — Love the simplicity and design

*2016-09-19*

It doesn't save the score?? What's the point? Please fix!

### 3/5 — Need it to keep it from day to day

*2016-08-15*

Keeps score but it doesn't keep it from day to day.

### 2/5 — Doesn't save games, too easy to delete games

*2016-01-19, version 1.0.5*

I've deleted games on accident many times and there is no way to undo and retrieve it...

### 2/5 — Please fix

*2015-11-28, version 1.0.5*

Great app.. Except it refreshes when you quit the app. I paid a dollar for no ads before I realized this. Please fix!!

### 2/5 — Overly basic app with too many pop ups

*2015-11-22*

The good: the look and feel are sleek, it does basic score keeping, and the interface is simple and intuitive.

The bad: it lacks some sorely needed features to improve score keeping and it has way too many/frequent pop up ads in the free version.

Where to improve: an adjustment to the interface to allow for addition to scores would allow some higher numbers to be easier to manage. Instead of pressing the plus button X times to add to a score, it should be able to also pop up a window when needed to allow for adding X number to the already existing score for a person. This would allow the app to have usefulness for a host of other score keeping needs that can be more complex. As for the ads, in the free version, they are way too intrusive to allow use of the app effectively. Reduction or removal of the pop ups would likely encourage more use of the app and better functionality of the app would encourage purchases to the ad free version.

Overall: this app does the bare minimum of what is needed (easy score keeping) and is too heavy handed on the advertising. It can work for simple score adjustments, but a few simple improvements would make this a must have app worth paying the $.99 to turn off the advertisements.

### 4/5 — Simple and simply great

*2015-10-26*

I tried developing something like this for a school project, but yours turned out much better. It's simple and easy-to-use (although it'd be nice if you could search players for big games). Overall it's a helpful app, and positively simplistic.

### 3/5 — Good counter, remove ads not working

*2015-08-30*

I'd send a support email if I had an address to send one to. 

I purchased the option to remove ads, and they won't go away. Very disappointed as I like the app otherwise.

### 2/5 — Needs fixing

*2014-11-09*

Appears to work well, interface is relatively intuitive and well designed BUT if you exit the app (leaving it running in the background) then scores will sometimes reset to zero when you reopen it, which ruins a game in progress

### 1/5 — Beware

*2014-06-25, version 1.0.2*

App is great BUT it does not save scores. If you are interrupted while keeping scores by a phone call, all info is wiped clean. I don't recommend this app.

### 1/5 — KC

*2017-11-19*

Horrible app. Not even worth the .99. Do not waste your money. Not user friendly. Difficult to change scores.

### 1/5 — Doesn't really"keep" score

*2017-10-13*

It counts things for one session but doesn't actually keep score if between sessions if the app is closed and reopened.

### 1/5 — Trick app

*2016-03-23, version 1.0.5*

Convenience app to get you to tap on ads. Trash.

### 1/5 — Unusable

*2015-12-27, version 1.0.5*

Pop-up ad does not close. Not able to use the app.

### 1/5 — Worthless

*2015-07-30, version 1.0.5*

The ads were sneaky so I paid the money to remove them. Wish I would have used it more first as there are quite show-stopper issues. 

1: Doesn't remember player names. 
2: Loses state when left in background and/or fully closed.

If these are fixed, it would be exactly what I was looking for. Until then, it's worthless.

### 1/5 — Overly aggressive with ads

*2015-07-15, version 1.0.5*

Not worth your time - the ads are bad enough to ensure deletion rather than encourage a purchase.  The developer obviously doesn't understand how the buy-up system design should work.

### 1/5 — Poorly designed, too many ads

*2015-07-05, version 1.0.5*

Bad

### 1/5 — Too many Ads

*2015-06-25, version 1.0.5*

It's unusable. It opens too many ads.

### 1/5 — Too many sneaky ads

*2015-06-08*

This app could be cool but it has way too many ads that are annoying and sneaky. It seems like every few seconds an advertisement would pop up and cover the entire screen even when I was in the process of entering a score. Because I was already tapping on the screen to update a players score I would accidentally tap the ad and be taken to the App Store which I did not want. When I clicked the no ads button it asked me to enter my password or fingerprint to purchase it but never told me the price. If I was a kid or someone less familiar with purchasing apps I might have accidentally agreed to buy it at whatever price they charged. The interface itself was cumbersome and has no record of each individual score added. It only has the final score. It made score keeping very difficult. A pen and paper would be better.

### 1/5 — Loses Your Score

*2014-12-31, version 1.0.2*

Echoing what others have said, if you need to go do anything else on your phone and then you come back your scores and all of your information are gone. I'm removing this app and looking for another one.

It’s simple and easy to use and best of all free, I live this app and think who ever made it has a great attention to detail

### 5/5 — Simple and straightforward

*2020-08-13, version 1.0.6*

Easy interface, simple design, non intrusive ads. Don’t need anything more. Does what it does perfectly.

### 5/5 — Perfect

*2019-04-04, version 1.0.6*

Simple and easy. Does exactly what I need it to do. Okay, so I’m keeping track of the number of drinks I have when I’m out, but it works.

### 5/5 — Basic. Perfect.

*2019-01-19*

So many scorekeeping apps add unnecessary stuff. I just want something simple and this has done it right for years.

### 5/5 — Works exactly as advertised.

*2016-06-13*

Great, simple app. Ads get in the way sometimes, but you can pay to remove them.

### 5/5 — Beautiful app

*2015-11-14*

I paid to remove ads because this is the best score keeping app I've used. It's a beautiful app that works great for game night.

### 5/5 — Great App

*2015-06-13*

Keeps track for multiple numbers of players. Awesome app - worked great. Would highly reccomend and will use it a lot.

### 5/5 — I've tried them all and this is the best

*2015-05-09*

There are some other score keeping apps, but this app is by far the best option for score keeping. We use it for game nights all the time.

### 5/5 — Love it

*2014-06-12*

This app is perfect for basic score keeping needs, I love it. Looks really nice too! Definitely worth downloading.

### 5/5 — Easiest to use

*2014-03-04*

This is the best designed and easiest to use app for keeping score. I use it for a lot of games
