About

Dartore

Smart dartboards cost like $500. This app is free. Dartore is a darts scoring app for people playing on a real board, with real darts, without the robot doing everything for them. You still throw. We just handle the numbers. WHAT YOU GET Six game modes: 101, 301, 501, 701, Cricket, and Shanghai (more mode coming soon). Pick one, set your players, hit Start Game. Two ways to score: tap straight on the visual dartboard, or switch to the keypad if you're faster that way. Either works. Play against a bot. It won't let you win on purpose, and it won't pretend your terrible throw was close. Check your profile after a session. Matches, wins, 3-dart average, high turn, 180s. The good and the bad. Daily challenges to practice something specific instead of just running legs over and over. Sound effects included. Turns out they help. No idea why, but they do. No login. Open the app, start a game, play darts. Free to download. Some features available with a one-time purchase.
