sparMaster Remote is the "remote-only" app to be used exclusively with the sparMaster Scoring system (sold separately). This Remote connects to the sparMaster Scoring Base Station via WiFi. The FULL sparMaster Scoring still contains both the Base Station and Remote apps. However, with the release of sparMaster Remote, you can purchase just the Remote app at a reduced cost should you not need the full sparMaster Scoring system or just want a few extra remotes. For additional information, please see sparMaster Scoring in the App Store.
