Those who rate 1 star are wrong. *2012-09-23, version 2.0* This app is for scoring Yahtzee games and it does the job perfectly. ### 5/5 — Fantastic app *2012-02-25* This app does exactly what it says it does. It's easy to use and it saves time and paper!! Thanks so much for creating this app! ### 5/5 — Peace Love Party *2012-02-19, version 2.0* Well, this is a scorecard, and it does everything a scorecard is supposed to perfectly ### 5/5 — Great score keeper *2011-11-26, version 2.0* Worked just like I needed it to. Made it soooo much easier than paper ### 5/5 — Perfect *2011-10-24, version 2.0* This is a great app, don't be fooled by all those negative ratings!! It's unfortunate that this app has gotten so many 1-star ratings. Clearly almost all of those people were looking for a yahtzee game but didn't read that it's a scoresheet. IF YOU ARE LOOKING FOR A YAHTZEE GAME, I've also downloaded Yachats made by the same people, which is a perfect rendition of Yahtzee. It's exactly what this app would be if it were a game. In any case this app is perfect. I was looking for an easy way to keep score of Yahtzee games I was playing with friends and family and this is *exactly* what I was looking for. You can keep track of everyone's score simultaneously (up to 5 people), it keeps a running tally of how close each person is to the 35-point bonus, it's really quick and easy to put in the scores, plus it even looks nice. The scores for each person at the top of the screen turn orange when all their scores are filled in which is handy to be able to tell who's finished. If you put the score in a wrong place or put in a wrong score or something, you can just double-tap the category to clear it. And that's another thing - you can enter scores freely for anyone, there's nothing that makes it auto-move to a different person or assume anything you don't want it to, which is really nice. And anyway it's FREE. Download it! The sad thing is that the fact that it's free probably has a lot to do with all the negative ratings - people probably just downloaded it in a free-app-downloading frenzy (which is what I tend to do) without reading or caring since it was free, thinking it was a game. BOO ### 5/5 — Works great! *2011-10-02, version 2.0* I saw the rating and hesitated to download this app, but we needed a Yachtzee scorecard and so gave it a chance. No issues with it at all. The only thing I had trouble with was wanting to undo a score I mistakenly entered on the wrong card and I was able to fix it after glancing through the instructions after pressing on the Help button. It would be nice if you could track multiple rounds to keep a running tally of games won/lost but that's hardly a reason to not use this app. ### 5/5 — This is great *2011-08-14, version 2.0* This app worked great. Great that we could put 0 into the numerical rolls, and it keeps a running total for the 35 pt bonus. Made it easy to just pass the phone instead writing sheets. ### 5/5 — Awesome *2011-03-18, version 2.0* Perfect app! Had no score cards and this made a great night!! Wish it had instructions but caught on quickly. ### 5/5 — Perfect scorekeeper for dice games *2010-12-27* Lacks option to keep running score over several games but otherwise perfect. Cheers. ### 5/5 — Fabtzee *2010-10-03* Don't understand the low ratings, does exactly what it says. No need for pen and paper anymore and no need to use your fingers to count the dice you still need for your bonus. Also good for people like my sister who don't know what 3 x 4 is and other basic algebra. Top dollar : ) ### 5/5 — Great Yahtzee assistant! *2010-07-11* Great Yahtzee assistant that renders buying pads to keep score unnecessary! ### 5/5 — Just what I wanted *2010-07-02, version 0* This app does exactly what it claims and does it very well. It was exactly what I was hoping to find. ### 5/5 — Does what the app says and does it well *2010-04-13* Perfect Yahtzee "style" score card. Saves paper. Looks and works good. What more do you want? ### 5/5 — Good *2009-11-17* It is just a scoreboard for yatzee but in saying that it is well set out tho I wish it came with the game it self good graphics easy to use ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Does Not Count Rolls *2010-10-27, version 0* Scoresheet does not count rolls. "Zero" entries into a section causes great confusion. Very difficult to determine when game is over. Keep your paper pads until the developer fixes the problems. ### 3/5 — Useful, but could be better *2016-03-26* Not many Yahtzee scorers out there, and this is one of the better ones... at least functional and easy to use. For all that, could do with a number of improvements. - Why limit to only 5 players? - No ability to undo a score captured against the wrong player. - No validation of throws vs current scores for current player. - Could use some assistance above the line as to whether our total offset against par is behind or ahead of where we need for bonus. (As it is need to do mental arithmetic to figure). Almost there... with a few easy improvements will be a great little app. ### 4/5 — Works well! *2012-01-23, version 2.0* One quibble: the fields where you can type in a score should have a maximum value of 30. ### 5/5 — Best app *2023-06-07* The only app that makes Yahtzee better without paper scorecards. 10/10. Don’t be nervous by the lack of reviews - it’s better than I could have ever designed it. ### 5/5 — Simple but does everything you need *2023-02-01* Basically transformed the speed and ease of playing Yahtzee. Can’t think of any improvement required even if you were to pay for it. But you don’t. And it’s genuinely ad-free (no pop ups anyway ### 5/5 — Perfect! *2023-01-16* keeps track of 5 players and super easy to use! ### 5/5 — Perfect *2022-01-03* Exactly what i needed ### 5/5 — Great App! *2020-05-19, version 3.1* Super easy to use, no more manual keeping score or mistakes. I also like how it tracks how far behind you are on the top for the bonus! BIL (Bonus is Life!) Thanks! ### 5/5 — Great app— enjoying no need for pen/paper *2020-05-12, version 3.1* Super easy way to keep score and see what you need in upper section. Highly recommend. **Developer response:** I got tired of threatening letters from Hasbro about using their trademark Ya*tzee. So I use my own category name but look in Setup where you can change it to anything you like. Enjoy. ### 5/5 — Keeps score! *2016-04-02, version 3.0* Awesome! Does exactly what you are looking for and more. Searched on-a-whim and was so happy with the find! Supports 5 players, calculates score, what else do you need? Well done! And many thanks! ## Most praised reviews (3 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Awesome app! *2015-12-26* This app is wonderfully designed with intuitive, easy to use controls and a nice, readable aesthetic. Mistakes can be quickly reverted (an option many similar scoring apps fail to include) and players are not made to use the app a certain way - the user can operate the app however they see fit with complete freedom. Great attention to detail and superb functionality overall. ### 5/5 — Great app for Yahtzee-ers *2013-04-02* This is a great scoring app for Yahtzee players... easy to use, nice simple interface that works well on both iPad and iPhone. Suggest ability to save scores, and a 'Tournament' mode where you can preselect the number of games before you start playing. Would also be nice to have a bit more of a 'finish' - no fanfares or anything, but just something like a 'finish' screen displaying your score (or leaderboard if you're keeping scores for other players, or playing in a Tournament)! Otherwise, a perfect app which has made our evening playing Yahtzee great fun! Just need to remember not to keep trying to find my pen to write down my scores! ### 5/5 — 👍 *2013-03-29* Great App; made sense even though we were playing the UK version. Two useful additions that could be considered are: •Support for more players •When you ‘cross-off’ categories they should disappear --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
