About

Smashtap

Features

Smashtap keeps the score of your padel match on your Apple Watch. One tap per point. No phone, no account. The screen is split like the court: tap the bottom half when you win a point, the top half when they do. A serve ball shows who serves, and the centre band tells you when to change ends. Tapped the wrong side? Turn the Digital Crown back to undo, as far back as you like, and forward to redo. RULES - Classic scoring with games, sets and tiebreaks: best of 3, best of 3 with a super tiebreak, or one set. - Deuce your way: Golden Point, Star Point (the default) or Advantage. - Mexicano: every rally counts, up to a total of 16, 21, 24 or 32, with 2 or 4 serves per turn and an optional change of ends at half time. It also scores Americano matches but does not create pairings or tables. BUILT FOR THE COURT - Large tap targets you can hit with sweaty hands. - A different haptic for a point, a game, a set, the match, a change of ends and an undo, so you can feel the score without looking. - The score stays on screen while you play, in Always-On too, instead of dropping back to the watch face. - Leave the app and your match is kept. - Add the launcher complication to your watch face to open the app in one tap. APPLE HEALTH Smashtap saves each match to Apple Health as a Tennis workout, because Health has no padel type. The workout also keeps the score on screen during play. If you decline Health access you can still score every point, but the screen may return to the watch face. PRIVATE No account, no ads, no data collected. Everything stays on your watch and in Health. Smashtap is a watch-only app for Apple Watch: there is no iPhone app, and it works without your iPhone nearby. Install it from the App Store on your watch. Available in English, Spanish and Russian.

Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Smashtap at none against Team's 1. Smashtap also leads on ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (daily vs every 4 days). Team's advantage is iOS requirement (12.0 vs 18.0). On price and device support there is nothing between them.
