Dink Data is a pickleball match & stat tracker built to be used while you play. The score lives on your Apple Watch — two big buttons, one tap per point — and when you dump an easy ball into the net, one tap logs the error and the game moves on. Nobody waits. I built it because playing more wasn't making me better. At rec level, games are decided by unforced errors — points you give away, not points anyone earns. Once you can see that number, practice stops being random. COUNTS AS A WORKOUT • Start a match and your watch records the whole session as a pickleball workout — heart rate, active calories, and Activity rings, rest between matches included. One Health prompt on your iPhone, no separate fitness app to juggle. TRACK WHILE YOU PLAY • Live scoring on Apple Watch: two big buttons sized for sweaty hands • Score and stats on separate screens, one swipe apart • One-tap stat logging with one-tap undo • Works without the phone; everything syncs when you're back THE NUMBERS THAT MATTER • Win rate, record, streaks, and point differential — always with a trend • Unforced errors per game, and whether it's falling • Any window: this month, 30 or 90 days, this year, all time • Custom stats with your own names and icons FIX ANYTHING LATER • Add or edit any stat on any finished match, game by game • Nothing locks when the match ends PRIVATE BY DESIGN • No account, no ads, no Health or location access • Your data stays on your devices and in your iCloud Free for your first 14 days, then a subscription. No app teaches you a third-shot drop - but this one tells you whether it's working. Terms of Use: https://dinkdata.app/terms.html Privacy Policy: https://dinkdata.app/privacy.html

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: RallyLoop at none against Pickleball's 3. Pickleball's advantage is update cadence (every 2 days vs every 9 days). On price, ads, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
