What's New
A major update — Universal Scorekeeper has been reimagined from the ground up. Bigger, smarter, and built for everything from family game night to full-scale tournaments.

Choose a Game Home Screen
A beautiful new visual grid of game tiles greets you on launch. Search by name, filter by category (Card, Dice, Board, Sport), and tap any tile to jump straight into a pre-configured setup. A Resume Game shortcut surfaces your most recent in-progress game right from the home screen.

25+ Ready-to-Play Game Templates
Dominoes, Yahtzee, Mahjong, Bridge, Cribbage, Scrabble, Bowling, Darts, Tennis, Golf, Chess, Checkers, Backgammon, Hearts, Spades, Euchre, Rummy, Poker, Farkle, Bunco, Pig, Trivial Pursuit, Risk, Pub Quiz, and more — each pre-configured with the right rules, scoring mode, and accent styling so you can start playing in seconds.

Full Tournament Management
Run real tournaments in five professional formats:
• Round Robin — everyone plays everyone
• Single Elimination — classic knockout bracket
• Double Elimination — winners and losers brackets with Grand Final
• Swiss System — paired by record, no eliminations
• Group + Knockout — World Cup-style group stage into bracket

Includes automatic seeding, bye handling, bracket visualization, live standings with full tiebreaker logic, and a fullscreen dashboard mode perfect for projection at venues and clubs.

Shared Sessions & Live Sync
Host a game and share a simple 6-character join code. Everyone scores from their own device with real-time sync, full offline support, and smart conflict resolution when devices reconnect. Host permission controls let you decide who can edit scores and who can end the game.

New Stats Dashboard
A dedicated Stats tab shows total games played, total rounds, top winners, and recent activity at a glance — with drill-downs into per-player and per-game-type performance, score trends, and achievement progress.

Restructured Four-Tab Navigation
A cleaner layout: Scoreboard, History, Stats, and Settings. Resume Game, Host, Join, Tournaments, Help, and Achievements are now consolidated under Settings, keeping the main tabs focused on playing, reviewing, and analyzing.

Professional Exports
Generate polished PDF reports with medals, per-group standings, full match results, and point differentials. CSV and JSON exports are perfect for spreadsheets and analysis. One-tap sharing to Messages, Email, Notes, and Files.

Achievements System
Unlock badges across gameplay, social, and engagement categories. Track streaks, milestones, perfect scores, and game mastery as you play.

iCloud Sync Across Devices
Your games, history, and tournaments now sync seamlessly between iPhone and iPad via CloudKit. Start a game on one device, finish it on another.

60-Language Support
Full localization across 60 languages with in-app switching and right-to-left layout support for Arabic, Hebrew, and more.

Premium & Pro Subscriptions
Optional tiers unlock advanced analytics, tournament creation, shared sessions, professional PDF exports, and priority support. The core experience remains completely free.

Polish Everywhere
Live theme switching with no app relaunch, a redesigned onboarding flow, richer haptic feedback, iPad-optimized scoreboard mode, faster history search and filtering, smarter duplicate detection, improved game validation, and countless refinements throughout — making every tap feel instant and every game feel effortless.
