### 1/5 — There is no way to use this

*2021-01-02, version 2.35*

There is nothing but a place to place names but not even to add them.

**Developer response:** If you click on the + in the top right corner you can add names. Then after having names, click on a name to record scores. Hope this helps.

### 1/5 — Deceiving name!

*2020-05-07, version 2.35*

Would be nice if they had Scorecard in the name.  THIS IS NOT SHANGHAI RUMMY!  IT IS SHANGHAI RUMMY SCORECARD! I want my money back.  I want to give zero stars but I can’t. I could do this with a crayon and a used envelope.

### 1/5 — This app doesn’t work

*2020-04-09, version 2.35*

You owe me $.99. This app doesn’t work. Names don’t appear on the side. Makes it close to impossible to use in any practical way.

### 1/5 — Disappointed

*2020-01-02, version 2.34*

I thought this was a game but it’s a score keeper.  I wanted to play not keep score.  Rip off

### 2/5 — Could be more user friendly

*2019-01-02, version 2.34*

This would improve tremendously if the app automatically advanced to the next player after a score is entered. Now you have to save each score then select another player to enter a score. A little tedious and slow.

**Developer response:** Thank you for the suggestion. I like the idea and will look to implement it.

### 5/5 — Great for score keeping

*2018-12-26, version 2.34*

Absolutely love this app for helping us keep score of the game.  No adding or calculating.

**Developer response:** Thank you.

### 1/5 — Holy crap!

*2018-11-08, version 2.33*

What a scam!! Don’t buy it!  Not the game only a score keeper. Really!!!!!!

### 1/5 — Not a game

*2017-10-23, version 2.3*

Not a card game, I wasted my money :(

### 1/5 — This is NOT a card game!  Rip off!!!! I want my money back. Don't fall for thisHoax

*2017-09-21, version 2.2*

Rip off

### 1/5 — Don't wast your $$$$

*2017-06-25, version 2.2*

I thought this was a game by the title.  It wasn't until I opened it that I realized it was just a score keeper.  Totally disappointed!!!! If I could give it zero stars I would
