Score Counter
Read full descriptionHide full description
Keep score for any game, on one screen everyone at the table can read. Score Counter replaces the scrap of paper next to the board. Add players or teams, tap to add or subtract points, and watch the ranking reorder itself after every tap. Nothing to set up, nothing to add up at the end — the phone does the math while you play, and the final standings are saved the moment you crown a winner. Most score apps are built for one game. This one is built for whatever you happen to be playing tonight: pick a ready-made setup for cards, board games, darts, bowling or backyard sports, or build your own scoring steps and win condition in about ten seconds. WHAT YOU GET - Live standings that reorder after every point, for individual players or full teams - One-tap scoring with your own +/- steps, plus exact manual entry when a hand is worth 137 - Instant undo for mis-taps, including shake-to-undo so you never hunt for a button mid-hand - Round-by-round records with a per-player breakdown you can reopen long after the game ends - Ready-made setups and win rules: first to a target score, or highest/lowest after a set number of rounds - A leaderboard that remembers everyone: wins, games played, average score and a wins chart across game nights PERFECT FOR - Board game and card game nights that always end in "wait, what was my score?" - Darts, bowling, mini golf and backyard sports where somebody has to keep the running total - Family game night with kids, using emoji or photo avatars so everyone finds their own row - Game masters who want a built-in dice roller (d4 through d20) instead of hunting for the lost die WHY NOT JUST USE PAPER OR THE NOTES APP Paper does not total your points, does not undo a mistake, does not rank players, and does not survive until next weekend. Score Counter keeps a running total per player, a full round history, a fullscreen table mode with big readable numbers, a match timer that counts up or down, and a permanent record of who actually won — plus a PDF of the final standings you can share to the group chat. PRIVACY Every game, player and score stays on your iPhone. No account, no sign-up, no analytics, nothing sent to a server. The app works completely offline. FULL ACCESS Score Counter is a paid app. Full access unlocks player and team scoreboards, unlimited players and simultaneous games, round-by-round history, the leaderboard and per-player statistics, dice roll history, the complete game archive and PDF export. Choose a weekly or yearly subscription, or unlock everything permanently with a one-time lifetime purchase. Subscriptions renew automatically unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period; manage or cancel anytime in your App Store account settings. Start your next game night with a real scoreboard instead of a napkin — add your players and tap Start.
