### 1/5 — Doesn’t work

*2023-01-06, version 1.8*

Can’t get the app to work, I can enter bids then I enter actual tricks taken by each player and then nothing happens after hitting submit

### 1/5 — Player count

*2021-07-04, version 1.8*

There was no way to have more than 4 players which was disappointing bc we rarely have only 4.

### 1/5 — Locked up

*2020-02-27, version 1.7*

Locked up during the first real-use test....

### 2/5 — I can’t submit my results

*2019-11-27, version 1.7*

i don’t know why but the app does not allow me to submit results

**Developer response:** Hi! Sorry about that! If the results do not add up to 13, it will not allow you to submit the results, to prevent mistakes from not submitting results correctly.

### 3/5 — Scoring isn’t as described

*2021-08-05, version 1.8*

The scoring for several of our hands wasn’t as described for this game.  I had bid nil and my partner had bid two. I took two tricks and my partner took one. I input our results correctly by player.  Therefore, we were both busted and, according to the app’s scoring instructions, we should received a score of -120 for that hand.  However, while the app did correctly compute my score of -100, it calculated my partner’s score as 21 by adding my two tricks to her one, thus arriving at a net score of -79 (21-100) for that hand. According to the instructions, when a player bids nil, any tricks they take are NOT added to their partner’s tricks.  That simply was not true in our case. Hopefully the developer can fix this glitch. Otherwise, the app make keeping track of the bags much easier and I liked the app’s ease of use.

### 4/5 — Great app for spades

*2019-12-26, version 1.7*

Works great for keeping score in a game of spades. Put in the bids then anger the hand is played put in the tricks won and the App takes care of the rest. I highly recommend you name the players as it makes life easier for keeping track of scores. 

I did find a bug where my team had -10 and bid 6+4 then won 12 tricks. Our score jumped to 192 when it should have been 92. The other team had a nil bid they won but that shouldn’t have affected our score. We redid the other teams score as if they won a blind nil to even things out.

**Developer response:** Hi! I’m glad you like it. We play that if a team bids 10 and gets 10, then it’s worth 200 points, which explains why it jumped up like that. I hope to be able to add more customization to scoring rules in the future.

### 5/5 — Love it

*2021-02-17, version 1.7*

Exactly what I was looking for and very easy to use

### 5/5 — Great app

*2021-02-16, version 1.7*

This app is fantastic. Very sleek and easy to use. The quick & easy scoring makes hanging out and playing games with friends even more fun. Also has fun options for changing the colors to make it just the way you like. Highly recommend. I have a feeling these were some very talented engineers & designers that made this. Also nice to see people kicking back and using their talent to make something lighthearted and not-work related. I wish I saw more of that in our current-day culture.

### 5/5 — Finally an app that helps keep score

*2019-06-16, version 1.6*

We drink, we play, and math is hard when drunk! This app solves the problem. The only thing that is a little confusing is the way it tracks bags when a team is negative. Highly recommend!

### 5/5 — Found Scoring Calculation Issue

*2019-03-28, version 1.5*

Thanks for the app. Works good but I did find a bug today. Player bid Nil. His teammate bid 3. Nil bid took one trick. Teammate took 2 tricks. Score should have been -130 I believe. However, score showed -70. It added +30 to the -100. It should have taken away 30 since teammate did not get their tricks. I believe when a player bids Nil, their teammate must get their tricks on their own. 

Also, since I am here, a good feature would be to allow player names to remain the same during a reset.

**Developer response:** I'm glad you like it! We have always played that if you went nil you can still assist your partner to take bids if your nil is broken. Sorry if that's not what you're used to! I'll have to start looking at allowing users to customize options when it comes to scoring.
