The bowling scoresheet that finally looks as good as your game. Anchor is a beautifully made score keeper for league and open bowlers. Track every frame pin by pin, see the spare and leave stats you actually practice from, and keep a real scoresheet you'll want to share. No account. No sign-up. Your games stay yours. WHY BOWLERS SWITCH TO ANCHOR • A real scoresheet — a warm, printed-style scorecard with your marks, running total, and the pins you left. Not a spreadsheet. • Spare intelligence — see exactly which spares you convert (single-pin, multi-pin, splits) and which pins leak, so you know what to drill on league night. • Your Pin Deck — the whole rack, colored by how often you take out each pin. • Snap the result — attach a photo of the lane scoreboard as a keepsake. FREE FOREVER Score entry, full history, your average, high game & high series, and strike / spare / open %. No caps, no wall on the basics. ANCHOR PRO Go deeper: full spare & leave intelligence, the Pin Deck heat map, trends over time, custom ranges, printable PDF reports (Season Book, spare practice sheet, match sheet), CSV export, home-screen widgets, and multiple bowlers, leagues & balls. BUILT RIGHT • No account, ever — your data lives on your device and syncs privately with iCloud. • Works for one bowler or the whole lane on league night. • Handicap, leagues, a full ball arsenal, and a clear "how scoring works" guide. Bowl your night. Anchor keeps the sheet. Terms of Use (EULA): https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/
