Enjoy playing bocce? Enhance your enjoyment with the Bocce Toolkit. It is often difficult to judge which of two balls are closer to the pallino. Bocce Toolkit can help. Using the Bocce Toolkit all you need to do is point the target on your iPhone or iPad screen at the pallino, then move the target to either a red ball or green ball and tap the ball icon. Instantly the app concludes which ball is closer and marks it with a highlight. If sounds effects are turned on the closer ball will be announced. In addition you can use the Bocce Toolkit to keep score by moving markers up the screen to show the number of points that each team has. Note: This app uses ARKit which is only supported on iOS devices with an A9 or later processor. iOS 11.0 or higher and an A9 or later processor are required. In order to for the app to work properly the iPhone or iPad needs to be held steady, Some of the early adopters of this app may have experienced difficulties. Also, in bright sunlight the screen can be difficult to see.
