## What is Tally?

Tally is the simple, fast score counter for every game night.

Cards, darts, board games, dice, friendly challenges, or house rules—keep points clear without paper or mental math.

Create a game, add players, set your rules, and adjust scores in one tap. Tally saves your games automatically so you can pick up exactly where you left off.

Key features:

- Multiple saved games
- Add, rename, remove, and reorder players
- + and − buttons to adjust scores one point at a time
- Add or subtract several points in a single action
- Win by highest or lowest score
- Optional score limit with alert
- Per-player score change history
- End-of-game recap with rankings
- Live Activity to follow scores on the Lock Screen and Dynamic Island on supported devices
- Automatic local save
- Optional Sign in with Apple to sync games across your devices
- Username and avatar profile
- Link players to other Tally users by username

Tally works offline by default. Sign in only if you want cloud sync. No ads, no tracking. Open the app, start a game, and count.

• Hosts keep control of rules, players, rounds, finish, and delete; everyone else can update scores
• Updating scores in a joined live game no longer triggers a cloud sync error
• Live shared scores stay in sync on the other device without needing another local tap
• Score history shows who made each change in a live shared game
• Fixed live-game sync errors when a shared game was out of date locally
