Run Out is a fast, no-nonsense scoreboard built for pool and billiards — rack after rack, on the rail, one-handed. DRAG TO SCORE Each player gets a full half of the screen. Tap to add or subtract a point, or hold and drag up/down to run the score up quickly between racks. No fumbling with tiny buttons between shots. ANY GAME, YOUR RULES - 8-Ball, 9-Ball, 10-Ball, and Straight Pool - Race-to any number - Alternate or winner breaks, with first-breaker selection - Foul tracking with automatic loss-of-rack handling - Break-and-run counter for every player LIVE MATCH SHARING Tap Share to get a 5-character code and QR. Your opponent scans it to watch live from their own phone — or claims the match to score from their side too, so you're not passing one phone back and forth. Anyone can watch the match update live from a web browser, no app required. BUILT FOR THE TABLE Play in landscape for the classic side-by-side scoreboard, or portrait with scores stacked — whichever fits how you're holding your phone. Pick from multiple scoreboard themes, including a retro LED look. TRACK YOUR GAME Every match is saved to your history. Set a nickname and Run Out tracks your matches played, win rate, racks won, break-and-runs, and longest win streak automatically. Run Out is free to use — no ads interrupting your rack, no paywalls on the scoreboard. Terms of Service: https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/
