RF32 Scoreboard turns your iPhone into a full-screen scoreboard — just rotate the phone and set it down by the court. In casual and pickup games you don't need a referee or a crowd: you keep score yourselves, adding points from the phone or straight from your Apple Watch without stopping the game. Big digits are readable from across the gym, and presets run the match all the way to the final whistle. Everything works offline — no accounts, no cloud, no ads. WHO IT'S FOR First and foremost for the players themselves — in casual and pickup games where you keep score among yourselves, with no referee and no audience. It works just as well for referees, coaches, organizers and fans who want a simple, reliable scoreboard always at hand — and for athletes tracking their own workout along the way. SPORTS PRESETS • Pick volleyball, basketball, handball or hockey — the app counts sets, quarters, halves or periods for you and runs the match to the final score • Duplicate a built-in preset and set your own rules (number of parts, points to win, advantage), or play with no preset as before • Switch presets straight from your Apple Watch, too FULL-SCREEN SCOREBOARD ON iPHONE • Rotate the phone to landscape and the home screen turns into a giant scoreboard • Two colored halves (Blue home / Red guests), digits readable from a distance • Set the phone by the court — the screen stays on through the whole match • Adjust the score (− / + / Reset) without turning back to portrait POINTS AND SETS • Two independent point counters: Blue team and Red team • Large +1 / −1 / Reset buttons — quick fixes when you miscount • Optional set counter: turn it on in settings whenever you need it • Winning a set automatically starts a new one from 0–0 • The score survives closing the app — after a restart the match returns where it left off MATCH HISTORY • Every score change is saved automatically on a two-sided timeline (Blue on the left, Red on the right), grouped by set • Pick a day to review the flow of any match, with a summary of points and sets • Filter the log: everything, points only or sets only • Clear a day's history in one move; everything stays on the device — no accounts and no cloud POSSESSION AND SERVE • A gold label under the team name shows who is serving or has the ball • Tap a team name to switch possession by hand • In volleyball the serve automatically passes to the team that scored GAME CLOCK (TIMER) • For timed sports, turn on the countdown timer • Control it from the phone or from your Apple Watch • The timer keeps counting even when the screen is locked APPLE WATCH AS A REMOTE • Current score and sets synced between iPhone and watch • Run the match from your wrist, without pulling out the phone • Reset and score correction always within reach • Possession is marked by a gold dot next to the score WORKOUT ON THE WATCH • 13 sports: volleyball, basketball, soccer, American football, baseball, softball, cricket, rugby, handball, water polo, lacrosse, field hockey, ice hockey • Live HealthKit metrics: heart rate, calories, time • Pause and resume your session, summary saved to Apple Health • The workout runs in parallel with score keeping OPTIONAL: PHYSICAL SCOREBOARD • Have a radio scoreboard?

Introducing the versatile 14 Stopwatches App, designed specifically for your iPhone and iPad to meet all your timing needs! Whether you're timing laps, workouts, or multiple events, this intuitive app allows you to run up to 14 individually named stopwatches on your iPhone and up to 20 on your iPad, making it a perfect companion for athletes, coaches, and fitness enthusiasts alike. Each stopwatch can be started simultaneously or individually, providing you with unmatched flexibility and control over your timing tasks. Optimized for your devices, the 14 Stopwatches App shines in portrait mode on the iPhone, ensuring easy access and readability, while the iPad version takes advantage of the widescreen layout in landscape mode for enhanced viewing. All your results can be easily emailed or copied directly from the app, allowing you to share your timing data with friends, athletes, or teams seamlessly. The app includes Apple Watch support & voice recognition that lets the user assign stop, start and split commands for different athletes Voice commands: • When Voice On is enabled, the app listens continuously for split, stop (or finish), and start, followed by an athlete’s name. You can also say all or everyone—for example, “Stop all.” • The app matches names only to athletes assigned to visible stopwatches. For example, “Stop Samantha” works when only one Samantha is assigned to a visible stopwatch. • The app uses how much of a name you say to find a match. “Split Laura Smith” selects Laura Smith. If you say only “Laura” and two Lauras are assigned, the app asks, “Which one? Laura Smith or Laura Brown,” gives a warning haptic, and takes no action. • Saying "Stop" records a split and then stops the stopwatch, just like the Stop button. • Athlete names are provided to the speech recognizer as hints, which can help it recognize unusual names. On-device speech recognition is used when available, so voice commands can work without a cellular signal. • For best voice recognition results, use an Apple Watch or a headset with a microphone. With the latest CSV Import functionality, you can now import athletes directly from a CSV file, simplifying the process of managing your stopwatch data. The app intelligently handles header rows, empty lines, and duplicate names, providing clear feedback on your import results. The timer display shows only minutes and seconds (MM:SS) for a cleaner look, while maintaining precision down to the tenth of a second for splits and recorded times. On the iPhone, the app features a streamlined navigation interface that enhances usability. The layout has been optimized for better readability, ensuring that all control buttons are well-organized and easily accessible even on smaller screens. Meanwhile, the iPad retains a wider side-by-side layout with larger fonts for maximum clarity, making it effortless to track multiple stopwatches at once. Experience the ultimate timing solution today with the 14 Stopwatches App — adaptable, efficient, and designed to elevate your timing experience on both your iPhone and iPad! • The default setting is 14 individually named stopwatches simultaneously on an iPhone, but you can add and/or delete additional stopwatches. • The default setting is 20 individually named stopwatches simultaneously on an iPad, but you can add and/or delete additional stopwatches. • All the stopwatches can be started simultaneously… or you can start each one individually. • All the result can be emailed (or copied) directly from the app. CSV format: John Smith Jane Doe
