Run any single-elimination tournament — a game night, an office ping-pong ladder, a cornhole tailgate, a chess club, a bracket pool for the big game — without a spreadsheet or a whiteboard. SNAP A PHOTO, SKIP THE TYPING Point your camera at a sign-up sheet and Tourney Bracket reads the names off the page for you. Review the list, uncheck anything that isn't a name, and add everyone in seconds — no manual typing required. SEED IT YOUR WAY Add players by hand, import a saved list, or scan a sheet. Sort alphabetically or shuffle into a random draw with one tap. PLAY THROUGH TO A CHAMPION Tourney Bracket builds a proper single-elimination bracket automatically, handling byes for uneven player counts. Tap a name to advance them; the bracket updates instantly all the way to the final. PICK UP RIGHT WHERE YOU LEFT OFF Every tournament is saved automatically. Run several at once, rename them, and jump back into any bracket — mid-tournament or long finished — exactly where you left it. SAVE YOUR REGULARS Keep a player list for your weekly group so next time takes one tap, not a re-type. PRIVATE BY DEFAULT There's no account, no sign-in, and no ads. Tournaments and player lists are stored only on your device. The one thing that ever leaves your phone is aonly if you use the scan feature, only toread the names in that photo, and never stored afterward. Tourney Bracket is built for the tournament, not the busywork.
