Read full descriptionHide full description
Your own bowling score book. The one the alley never gives you. The house screens score the whole team, then throw your night away. StrikeBook keeps just your games: every frame, your real average, and every league night, in a score book that's actually yours. Free frame-by-frame scoring, forever. No ads. No account. No subscription. SCORE EVERY FRAME, CORRECTLY • A fast pin pad. Tap the count, the strike, the spare. The sheet fills itself. • Real ten-pin rules, tenth frame and bonus balls handled exactly like the center's screen. • Tap any frame to fix a mistype. Score multiple games a night. • In a hurry? Type just the final score and move on. YOUR REAL AVERAGE, WEEK BY WEEK • Average, high game, high series, strike % and spare %: honest, real-rules numbers. • A trend line that shows your average actually moving. EVERY NIGHT, KEPT • Each night is a record: date, house, league, series, and a photo, if you want one. • Your history scrolls like an album, not a spreadsheet. SHARE THE NIGHT • One tap turns a night into a clean card: scores, series, date, straight into the group chat. GO DEEPER WITH PRO (one-time, no subscription) • Spare conversion by pin leave: the single-pin and 10-pin numbers you argue about. • First-ball average, open-frame %, clean-game count, per-house splits. • Unlimited leagues, unlimited photos per night, and CSV export of every game. StrikeBook is a personal score book, not a group scorekeeper and not a league-secretary tool. Your data lives on your device. Buy Pro once and it's yours. Family Sharing included. Score tonight's games free. Watch your book fill up.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: StrikeBook at none against BowlingBoard's 2. StrikeBook also leads on update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 2 months). BowlingBoard's advantage is device support (3 vs 1). On price, ads and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
