### 3/5 — Simple but not free for watch

*2026-04-23*

Have been trying out a few scorekeeping apps on the watch. There’s nothing special. It’s simple and it works. You can add and remove points and reset. The numbers are big. The server indicator is an extra step, and I just don’t use it. It let me play two games before it required me to pay $9.99. I wish it was upfront about it.

### 2/5 — Apple Watch Issue

*2026-03-18*

I’m having an issue where it keeps popping up that my free trials have been used up. I have purchased the pro version but for some reason my watch is not updated. Very annoying when I have paid for the pro version and yet still unable to keep score. It gets the job done on my phone, but when I’m on the court playing, would be nice to update it on my watch rather than running to my phone.

### 5/5 — Good

*2026-02-17*

Vey useful for baseball and volleyball

### 5/5 — Vicky vs Joey

*2026-02-08, version 2.3.1*

We had so much fun with counting up to 1350

### 5/5 — Perfect simple scoring app

*2025-12-15*

I use this for volleyball with friends and it works great. I can update the score from my watch after each point. We put the phone on a stand so everyone can see the scores as they update. Recently the font went from white to black which is a lot harder to see. I hope there will be an update to set the color of the font back to white.

### 1/5 — Made it worse

*2025-12-07*

It was great before last update. Now it’s unusable on Apple Watch due to poor UI design. 

Should go back to the simple score method it originally was.

### 5/5 — Excellent tool

*2025-11-29*

I’m loving it. Now I’m the family scorekeeper 👍

### 5/5 — 굳뜨

*2025-11-06*

Goood!

### 3/5 — Simple and useful app…

*2025-10-20, version 2.2*

But can’t use it on the Apple watch when using iOS activity tracker. And can’t score traditional tennis points. Reasonable £9.99 if those features could work.

### 2/5 — Not for Apple Watch

*2025-09-03*

Works good, but on Apple Watch it doesn’t stay open after I take my eyes off interface. So in order to enter the next count I have to unlock watch and open app. Useless for me to keep count of how many shots I take.

**Developer response:** Thanks for your feedback! 

The Apple Watch auto-locks by default when you lower your wrist. To keep the app open, go to the Watch app on iPhone → General > Wake Screen (or on watchOS 10: Settings > Display & Brightness > Return to Clock) and set it to “After 1 hour.” This way the app will stay open so you can keep counting without unlocking each time.
