The 2Counter App provides a two-player Counter that works on the iPhone and Apple Watch - perfect for any kind of score counting. Check out the new "LiveScore" feature! (It works on iPhone or Apple Watch): Tap on the iPhone or Apple Watch and see Scores immediately on any browser - worldwide! All you need to do is to send the LiveScore-Link from within the App. That way, your friends and family can follow your Scores. The two counters can be used, for example, during a Squash (Racquetball) game, a Basketball match, a Volleyball match or any game where you need to count a Score or keep track of the played Sets. Organize a tournament and show Scores live on iPad or any big Screen of choice that is connected to the internet. Or in a small frame without internet, show your adversary-player the game score via iPhone - you tapping on the Apple Watch. Score-entry can be done by tapping on the Apple Watch or on the iPhone score panel. The Scores are mirrored immediately to the other device. The iPhone is used to enter new players to a local database on the iPhone that is automatically synchronised with the Watch using WatchConnectivity. Using the force-touch menu on the Apple Watch, you can play sets, reset your current game or start a new match. Same functionality also exists on the iPhone. Each player's score is saved independently allowing for a game-retake at any time. Two independent counters can be increased on the Apple Watch display with big buttons each, easing the entry even during hectic game times. Counts can also be placed by turning the digital crown up or down. Both counters can show counts up to 999. You can decide freely when a new set needs to start. Match-Winnings are kept and shown in database. For people interested, this 2Counter-App allows heart-rate monitoring on the Apple Watch. The App therefore makes use of Apple HealthKit and integrates with the Health app. The 2Counter-App is for entertainment purposes only. No medical diagnosis or value can be taken from the HealthKit data shown in this App. The new version v5.4 has two in-app-purchase options: a. multi-player options and b. heart-rate monitor, each with a price of 0.99$.

Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: SmoothSwing at 4.8 against 2Counter's 3.8. SmoothSwing also leads on ratings volume (11K vs 4) and chart position (#171 vs unranked). 2Counter's advantage is iOS requirement (12.0 vs 16.0). On price, review sentiment, update cadence and ads there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. 2Counter sells 2 one-off in-app purchases and SmoothSwing sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

SmoothSwing holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 3.8. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: SmoothSwing has 11K ratings behind it against 4, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 56% of 2Counter's written reviews are positive against 49% of SmoothSwing's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

2Counter ships an update fortnightly, SmoothSwing monthly. The most recent releases landed on September 16, 2026 and September 30, 2026 respectively.
