Getting frustrated with all the other score keeping apps out there? Tired of your phone circulating around the table just so every player can see their score? You don't know exactly what Uncle Jake has been through, but you certainly don't want any of it getting all over your phone! Well, say hello to Talking Score Keeper - or maybe it should say hello to you! It's the only app that announces who's turn it is, their score, how much they need to get to be in first place and much more. It's all customizable in an easy, intuitive interface. And with the Tally feature, Talking Score Keeper can even be used with games that allow multiple scores in a single turn. These points can either be added to the current player's total or surrendered, depending on the rules of the game. And speaking of points, you can always pull up a history of who scored what on each of the previous turns. So go ahead and download this great utility and be confident you will never have to read anyone's score to them ever again.

Keep score for any game — then keep the score. Cards, board games, trivia night, backyard tournaments. Set up a scorecard in seconds, and when the game ends, ScoreKeep Pro remembers it. That is the part a paper scorepad has never managed. SET UP IN SECONDS Pick the number of rounds, name them whatever the game calls them — Deal 1, Front Nine, Bid — and start playing. Up to 12 players and 30 rounds. Playing something where the lowest score wins? One toggle. TAP A CELL, TYPE THE SCORE A big keypad, one player after the next, and Undo for when a thumb slips. Totals and the leader update as you type, so nobody has to add up a column mid-game, and nobody has to trust the person who is winning to do the arithmetic. YOUR GAMES, ON THE SHELF Give a setup a name — its rounds, round names, scoring direction and usual players — and it becomes a box on your shelf, in its own colour. Open the box and start. The games you play most rise to the top, and you can change a box's colour or contents whenever your house rules do. GAME HISTORY Every finished game is saved: who played, every round, the final scores, and who won. Search by player or by game, and open any scorecard again months later. RECORDS AND HEAD-TO-HEAD Wins, win rate, current and best streak, and your best score and average at every game. Then the interesting part: a head-to-head record against everyone you play. Who actually wins most is no longer a matter of opinion. YOUR PLAYERS, SAVED Keep the people you play with on a roster, so their names are one tap instead of retyped every session — and so their records follow them from game to game. Someone joining for one night can play as a guest without cluttering the roster. Played a few games before saving someone? Link them to those games afterwards and their record catches up. SHARE THE SCORECARD Send the final scorecard to the group chat as an image, or export it as a CSV to do your own damage in a spreadsheet. PUT IT DOWN, PICK IT UP Save & exit keeps the game you are in the middle of, and it is waiting on the Home screen when you come back. Nothing is lost if your phone dies mid-round. IPHONE AND IPAD Laid out for both, and built to work with the largest text sizes and with VoiceOver. WORKS ANYWHERE No connection needed, ever. The kitchen table, the back of a cabin, a plane. PRIVATE BY DEFAULT No account. No sign-in. No ads. No tracking, and no third-party code of any kind. Everything you enter stays on your device. Free, with no subscriptions and no paywalls.
