Scoreboard
Read full descriptionHide full description
Keep score for any game in one tap. Scoreboard turns your phone into a big, readable score sheet for basketball, volleyball, pickleball, tennis, ping pong, soccer, football, golf, bowling, darts, cornhole and card games — no setup, no account, no internet needed. TAP TO SCORE Each player or team gets a full-bleed colored block. Tap to add a point, hold for a quick-add of any amount. The numbers are large enough to read from the sideline, the bench, or across the table. BUILT FOR REAL RULES Every sport ships with the right scoring rules already loaded: win targets, points per tap, period counts and a game clock where the clock is the point. Pick a preset in setup or override it — the board plays by whatever you choose. UNDO ANYTHING Miscounted? Every point is reversible. Unlimited undo with a running count, so a bad call never ends the game. 2 TO MANY PLAYERS Two, three or four players each get their own colored half or quarter of the screen. Five or more switch to a clean ranked list. Great for card nights, board games, tournaments and league play. CALL THE GAME Blow the whistle to end a match early, or let the win target trigger the winner overlay automatically — confetti included. MATCH HISTORY & STATS Every finished game is saved. See total games, wins, your current streak and your top sport at a glance, then scroll back through past results. DESIGNED TO BE SEEN High-contrast type, bold color blocks and haptic feedback on every tap. Works in portrait or landscape, on iPhone and iPad. SPORTS AND GAMES INCLUDED Basketball, Soccer, Pickleball, Tennis, Volleyball, Ping Pong, Football, Cornhole, Golf, Bowling, Darts, and a generic Cards mode that counts anything. WORKS OFFLINE Everything runs on your device. No sign-up, no ads interrupting a match, no signal required in the gym. Whether you are keeping score at a rec league game, a driveway pickleball match, a family card night or a school tournament, Scoreboard is the fastest way to keep everyone honest.

Shot Clock

Shot Clock gives every billiards shot a clear time limit, whether you are practising or playing at the table with another player. YOUR TIME AT THE TABLE • Set your shot time and break countdown • Start, pause and resume the clock • Reset and immediately start the next shot • Choose each extension’s duration and how many each player receives • Personalise player names and restore extensions for a new rack SEE AND HEAR THE COUNTDOWN A large countdown and coloured ring show the remaining time. Signals sound at 10 seconds, during the final 5 seconds and when time expires. On iPhone and iPad, the countdown and signals continue when you switch apps or lock the screen. LIVE ACTIVITIES See the remaining time on the Lock Screen and in the Dynamic Island on compatible iPhones. From iOS 17.2, pause, resume, use either player’s extension, or reset and start the normal shot time from the Live Activity. iOS controls when the display updates; use the in-app buttons for the most immediate response. OPTIONAL VOICE CONTROL Control the clock in English or German with commands such as “Start”, “Pause”, “Resume” or “Extension Player One”. Recognition runs on the device and requires compatible local speech recognition plus microphone and speech permissions. The app must be active for voice control. Manual controls remain available without voice support. YOUR STYLE Choose English or German and a Light, Dark or Midnight appearance. Shot Clock supports iPhone and iPad in portrait and landscape. NO ACCOUNT NEEDED No account, advertising or in-app purchases. Settings stay local. The app does not save voice recordings or upload speech data to its own server. PLEASE NOTE Live Activities require iOS 16.2 or later; Dynamic Island requires a compatible iPhone. Signal sounds use media volume and the selected audio output. Audio interruptions pause the clock. Fully quitting the app stops playback; a fresh launch does not restore a running countdown. Support: shotclock@danielsorger.de

Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: Shot Clock at none against Scoreboard's shown. On price, in-app purchases, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
