Bowling Tracker

Read full description

Bowling Tracker is the fastest way to log every game frame by frame, watch your average and strike percentage climb, and finally know if you are actually getting better. Whether you bowl a weekly league night, a casual family lane, or a serious practice session, your scores stop vanishing on a paper sheet and start building into a history that means something. Paper scoresheets and the alley monitor disappear the moment you walk out the door. A plain notes app has no scoring logic and no trend. Bowling Tracker keeps a correct frame-by-frame scorer, a stats engine that compounds with every game, and an AI Shot Coach that reads your real numbers and tells you the one thing to fix next. WHAT YOU CAN DO • Score every game frame by frame — tap the pins you knock down and the running total is computed live, strikes, spares, splits, and the tricky 10th-frame bonus all handled correctly • Log unlimited games — the core loop is always free, so your history never stops growing • Track your stats — average score, high game, strike percentage, spare percentage, and split-conversion percentage, all derived from real frame data instead of hand-entered totals • See your trend — a recent-games chart turns a pile of scores into a line you can actually read, so improvement (or a slump) jumps out • Group by league — create leagues and seasons, assign players, and keep every league night's games together • AI Shot Coach — feed the coach your actual aggregates and get a structured development plan: a headline read, concrete insights, a focus area, a drill to practice, and a target to chase • Vision Scorecard — snap a photo of the alley screen or a paper scoresheet and let it read the frames, then auto-fill the game for you • Keep it all offline — your games, leagues, and stats live on your device, personal and always available WHY BOWLING TRACKER • A real scoring engine — strikes, spares, splits, and the 10th-frame bonus are done right, so you never do the math by hand or trust a total that is wrong • Stats that compound — every logged game sharpens your average, high game, and strike and spare rates; the longer you track, the more the app is worth • Coaching on YOUR numbers — the Shot Coach reads your genuine strike percentage, spare percentage, and split conversion, not a generic tip wall • Snap-and-score — Vision Scorecard turns a photo of a physical sheet into a filled-in game, the biggest time-saver at the lanes • One home for every session — no scattered notes, no lost sheets, no spreadsheet on the kitchen table • Built for the weekly cadence — league night has a natural rhythm and the recent-games chart always wants one more bar WHO IT'S FOR • League bowlers who want their series, average, and handicap history in one place instead of on the secretary's clipboard • Casual and family bowlers who just want to keep score correctly and see if they are improving • Practice-minded players chasing a higher strike percentage and better spare conversion who want a coach's read on what to work on • Anyone who has lost a great game to a paper sheet and wants every future game remembered Free bowlers get unlimited game logging, the full frame-by-frame scorer, the complete stats dashboard, unlimited leagues, and a real taste of the premium tools. Pro unlocks unlimited AI Shot Coach development plans, unlimited Vision Scorecard photo scoring, and removes ads — the two things that turn a plain score log into actually getting better at the lanes. Your first game is the aha moment: finish it, watch the scorer compute the correct total including a bonus you would have added by hand, then see that score land as the first point on your trend. It did the math, and it is remembering this for you. Download Bowling Tracker and give every game the scorecard it deserves.
