A paper scorecard makes you do the math between ends. ArcherScore gives every arrow a key, X, 10 down to 1, or M, and keeps the end total, the running total, the X tally, and your average per arrow live while you shoot. Pick a preset and the scorecard is ready at the line: the 300 Round (10 ends of 3), the 600 Round (12 ends of 5), or the WA 720 (12 ends of 6), each at its usual distance, editable if your club shoots it differently. Or build a custom round with your own name, distance, ends, and arrows per end. Scoring is 10-zone with X and M: X scores 10 and is tallied separately as the tiebreaker, M scores 0. WHAT YOU GET - An end-by-end scoring pad: one tap per arrow, ends commit themselves, undo included - A full scorecard for every round: end totals, running totals, X count, average per arrow, and notes - Personal bests per round format, with the X count breaking ties, and a badge the moment you set one - Trends that fill in as you shoot: the average-per-arrow line across rounds, averages by distance weighted by arrows, and arrows per week - A practice volume counter: arrows this week, this month, and all time - Bow setups for recurve, compound, barebow, longbow, and traditional: draw weight, arrow specs, sight marks, tuning notes, and each bow's own average - A printable scorecard PDF and a score history CSV with end-by-end detail (Lifetime) PRIVATE AND IN SYNC No account of ours and no tracking. Your scores 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 with the full pad, presets, bows, stats, and trends. The Lifetime unlock is a one-time purchase, shown in your local currency at checkout, that removes the round limit, so your trends and personal bests build across the whole season, and adds the scorecard PDF and CSV exports. There is no subscription. Score the next end. The average has somewhere to climb.
