MAHJONG POINTS The easy way to score Hong Kong mahjong. Tap the tiles in your winning hand and the app works out the fan, the points, and exactly who pays whom, then keeps a running four-player scoreboard for the whole night. Made for players who never learned to count the score. TAP YOUR TILES, GET THE SCORE Tap the real tiles you are holding and the winning patterns are detected automatically, from Common Hand and All Triplets to Full Flush and the big limit hands. A live readout shows your total fan and points as you build the hand. SEE EXACTLY WHY Tap the score for a full breakdown: every pattern that counted, the fan it is worth, and how the total converts to points. No more arguments at the table. HOW YOU WON Choose self-draw or by discard, set your seat wind and the round wind, and flag special wins like concealed hand, robbing the kong, last catch, or a heavenly or earthly hand. The result updates instantly. FOUR-PLAYER SCOREBOARD Record each win and every player's running total updates, with a leader crown, one-tap undo, and separate seasons to keep different nights apart. Tap any past hand to review the exact tiles it was made from. BILINGUAL REFERENCE A plain-language glossary of every scoring pattern, in English and Chinese, that you can search. Tap a pattern to load an example hand straight into the calculator. PRIVATE BY DESIGN No accounts, no network, no ads, and no data collected. Everything stays on your device. The app follows your phone's language automatically (English or Bahasa Indonesia). Works on iPhone and iPad.

The call
