Kitchen is the pickleball scoreboard you'll actually want to use. Two enormous color blocks. One tap to score. Serve number and side handled for you. No ads, no accounts, no subscription. ONE TAP, REAL RULES • Side-out or rally scoring (the 2026 rulebook's provisional format), games to 11, 15 or 21, win by 2. • Best of 3 or best of 5: Kitchen tracks games, alternates the first server and reminds you to change ends. • Rulebook presets and a coin flip for who serves first. • Switch-sides reminder at 6, 8 or 11. Tap Switched and the board flips with you. • Round-robin countdown with a buzz when time is up. • Shake or tap to undo. The screen never sleeps mid-match, and a locked phone or a force quit never loses a game: just tap Resume. TROPHIES AND GAME CENTER Earn 15 trophies, from your first game to a shutout, a comeback from five down and five wins in a row. Sign in to Game Center to climb the weekly games leaderboard and the all-time wins and win-streak boards with your friends. Pick yourself in Players and your wins count. GAME-DAY REMINDERS Choose the days you usually play and Kitchen sends a nudge so the score is ready before you get to the court. Only what you choose, never ads. SPOKEN SCORE Turn on Spoken score and Kitchen calls "6, 4, 2" after every rally, like a referee. It respects the silent switch. APPLE WATCH Score from your wrist with the same engine as the phone. Kitchen records the match as a pickleball workout (heart rate, calories and Activity rings) and stays awake for the whole game. Finished matches land in your iPhone history. COURT BOARD Open Court board on an iPad or a second iPhone on the same Wi-Fi and it mirrors the live score, big enough for the whole court. Scoring on the watch? Your iPhone shows it live too. No setup, no account. IPHONE DUO Prop iPhone Duo half-open on the bench: Bench mode shows a big scoreboard facing the court on the top half and both tap targets on the bottom. Open it like a book for a scoreboard page and a tapping page. PLAYERS Type names at match start and Players keeps everyone's wins, losses, streaks, recent form, doubles partners and head-to-head. SHARE A clean match card with names, games and time for the group chat, or a text summary ready for your DUPR log. AND MORE • History with filters and day sections; stats with records and when you play. • Four court themes: Day, Dusk, Indoor, Neon. Great on iPad with a sidebar, landscape and keyboard shortcuts. • A hand-signals card and a 2026 rules cheat sheet. • 46 languages, switchable instantly inside the app. • Matches, players and workouts stay on your devices. Anonymous usage stats help us improve Kitchen and can be switched off in Settings. Open the app. Tap. Play. Own the kitchen, own the court.
