Read full description

Curlytics lets you track curling statistics and draws - for yourself, or your team! Curlytics was designed to be simple yet comprehensive - as a curler interested in my own statistics, I wanted to make data entry fast enough to be usable on-ice without affecting pace of play*, yet also fully featured enough to be a usable tool to track progress and identify areas of improvement. Features include: - Shot and draw tracking (for individuals - team tracking is available with Curlytics Premium) - Watch integration - track your progress midgame on your wrist, with a few simple taps, and view it in the app later - Advanced stats tracking and sorting - Curlytics allows you to explore your shot data, filtering by type, difficulty, handle, position played, and more, in order to identify areas for improvement - Progress graphing - Curlytics allows you to visually explore and track your (or your team's) progress over time, all sortable/filterable by the above categories Thanks for using Curlytics, and good curling! *Note: in the spirit of curling, if you plan on using Curlytics on ice, please make sure the other team is okay with it :) Terms of Use for Curlytics can be found at: https://cypressapplications.com/terms

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Curling Strategy Board Boosted holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.2. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Curlytics has 5 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 0% of Curling Strategy Board Boosted's written reviews are positive against 50% of Curlytics's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Curling Strategy Board Boosted ships an update every 54 months, Curlytics every 2 months. The most recent releases landed on October 6, 2026 and October 21, 2026 respectively.
