Pindeck is the cleanest way to score, track, and improve at bowling. Whether you're rolling your first game or chasing a 300, every frame you bowl turns into stats you can actually use. SCORE THE WAY YOU WANT Score pin-by-pin to capture exactly which pins fell on every roll, or by-the-number if you just want to log totals fast. The scorer handles strikes, spares, splits, and the 10th frame correctly — no fiddly math, no mistakes. STATS THAT ACTUALLY MEAN SOMETHING A clean Stats tab shows your average, strike %, spare conversion, and a score-trend chart across the last week, month, or all-time. See how you're doing at a glance — and see exactly where you're leaving points on the lane. LIVE ACTIVITY & LOCK SCREEN Your current game stays on the Lock Screen and in the Dynamic Island while you bowl, so you can check your running score, current frame, and strike streak without unlocking. Home Screen widgets bring the highlights up front too. SCAN A SCOREBOARD Bowled a game on a house scoreboard? Snap a photo and Pindeck reads the frame totals straight into your history. Perfect for league nights when you don't want to type while you bowl. YOUR BOWLING BAG, ORGANIZED - Build a library of every ball you bowl with — photo, weight, brand - Save the alleys you play at so the venue is one tap away - Tag every game as Practice, League, or Tournament BUILT FOR EVERY BOWLER Beginner finding your form, league bowler chasing a higher average, tournament player tracking your gear — Pindeck adapts. A quick onboarding asks about your skill and goals so the app is useful from game one. SYNCS WITH ICLOUD Every game, ball, and venue syncs through your private iCloud.
