Placarito turns the iPhone into the scoreboard for the bar table and the court. Two color fields, one big number each, and nothing in the way: no ads, no account, no paywall. TAP, DRAG, HOLD Tap a side to add a point. Drag toward the screen edge to remove one. In truco, hold a side to score 3, 6, 9 or 12 at once. Every point answers instantly, with the number rolling and real haptics. REAL TRUCO Game to 12, hand-of-11 and iron-hand alerts, best of 3. Undo the wrong point with one tap. VOLLEYBALL, BEACH VOLLEYBALL, TABLE TENNIS AND BADMINTON Sets to 25 (beach to 21, table tennis to 11, badminton to 21 capped at 30) with a two-point lead, tie-breaks, alerts for set point, match point, deuce and side change. A dot shows who is serving. TENNIS AND BEACH TENNIS 15, 30, 40, advantage, games to 6 and a tie-break at 6 all. Beach tennis plays a golden point at 40 all. BASKETBALL Running count with 1, 2 and 3-point baskets. FREE Count anything, with or without a target. Dominoes, pool, cards, whatever is on the table. ON THE TABLE, FACING BOTH Lay the iPhone flat: the top side flips toward the other player, the controls fade away and the board stays clean. The screen stays on while the game lasts. ON THE LOCK SCREEN The score shows live on the Lock Screen and in the Dynamic Island. Follow it without unlocking. THE GAME IS NEVER LOST Every point is saved on the device. Close the app, open it again, the score is where it was. Team names and colors your way. No ads, no charges, no in-app purchases. In Portuguese and English.
