A wet paper scorecard makes you do the math between holes. ChainsUp knows every hole's par, so par, birdie, and bogey are each exactly one tap, for you and everyone on the card, with running totals against par computed live while you walk. Build your courses once: name, holes, and a tap-to-cycle par editor (start from all par 3, the disc golf standard). Every round you play there stacks up into course history: your record round, your average against par, and every scorecard, kept. Scorecards snapshot the layout they were played on, so old rounds stay honest even if the course changes. WHAT YOU GET - A one-hole-at-a-time scoring pad: the big key writes par, minus writes a birdie, plus writes a bogey, and the pad glides to the next hole when everyone is in - Group rounds: up to six players on one phone, each with their own running score, and quick re-add chips for your regular crew - A full scorecard for every round: hole-by-hole colors, per-player totals, and score against par - Personal course records with a trophy on the round that holds them - Season stats in Swift charts: your score-vs-par trend and your birdie, par, and bogey mix - A disc bag inventory: every disc with type, plastic, weight, and honest flight notes, including a shelf for discs resting out of the bag - A free share card for any round: a bright PNG for the group chat - A season report PDF and a round history CSV with hole-by-hole detail (Lifetime) PRIVATE AND IN SYNC No account of ours and no tracking. Your rounds live on your device and in your private iCloud, synced across iPhone, iPad, and Mac. A Delete All My Data control erases everything, everywhere it syncs, whenever you want. FREE VS LIFETIME Free covers your first 5 rounds and 3 courses with the full pad, group scoring, stats, records, and the bag. The Lifetime unlock is a one-time $12.99 USD purchase (no subscription, ever) that removes both limits, so your records and trends build across the whole season, and adds the season report PDF and CSV export. Run it back. The chains are waiting.
