Poule Referee
Read full descriptionHide full description
Poule Referee is the phone the referee scores from. Connect to a piste with the six-digit code the organiser issues, or scan the QR on the poule sheet, and referee the bout: touches, cards, priority, the clock and the passivity timer. The result goes straight to the competition, and the poule sheet updates for everyone watching it. WHAT IT DOES • Scores poule bouts and knockout matches, with the target score and timing the competition sets • A full bout clock: periods, the rest between them, sudden death and the priority draw • Cards, and a touch-by-touch timeline of the bout as it happens • Works without a signal — results wait on the phone and go up when the network returns • A standalone timer for training and local events, with no competition and no fencers WHAT YOU NEED A six-digit code from the organiser of a competition running on poule.esgrima.pt. The app cannot create a competition and cannot issue a code. The standalone timer needs neither. WHAT IT DOES NOT DO No account, no sign-up, no advertising, and nothing about you is collected. The code is all the app ever knows about who is holding the phone.

Verdict
The clearest difference is update cadence: Poule Referee at weekly against Clawer's monthly. Clawer's advantage is device support (3 vs 1) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 16.4). On price, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
