RF32 Scoreboard
Read full descriptionHide full description
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? The app connects to it through an ESP32 bridge (Bluetooth → RF) • The same buttons then drive both the phone screen and the physical board at once • Step-by-step onboarding guides you through pairing and radio configuration
