The most useful tool for all darts fans who are playing too passionately to count the score! Darts Scorer is a scoreboard you control by pointing at a dartboard on the screen. Put your finger on the board, slide to where your dart landed and release: the throw is recorded, the score is calculated and the next player is up automatically. No typing numbers, no paper, no mental math. GAMES • x01: 101, 301, 501, 701 and 1001, with optional double-out and bust detection • Cricket with marks and points • Around the Clock, standard or with doubles skipping a number MADE FOR THE OCHE • 1 to 4 players, each with their own corner of the screen • Checkout suggestions for x01, e.g. T20 / T14 / D2 • A pointer with a label shows exactly which segment you are about to record • Left-handed mode so your hand never covers the score • Undo any throw, back to the start of the game • Play for places: the game continues until only one player is left • Rotate who throws first in every new game • Large text option for tablets and darts at a distance • A game in progress is restored if the app is closed STATISTICS • Games played, wins, win rate and average per dart for every player • Leaderboards per game and variant PRIVATE BY DESIGN Your games, players and statistics stay on your device.
