Scorekeeper XL Reviews

I bought this years ago. Couldn't tell you how long it was now. It's tracked hundred of board games, card games, suplexes by Brock Lesnar in a single match, the list goes on. I was sad to start getting the warnings that it wouldn't run in iOS 11.

Developer comes in after 4? 5? years of no updates (it legitimately DID NOT need updates, that's not a knock against it) and pushes a valid 64-bit application for iOS 11.

I can honestly say I've gotten the most use and distance out of ScorekeeperXL more than any other third part app since I bought my first iPhone 3GS. Hats off to the dev, wish apps today were more like yours -- simple, unobtrusive, and FAST.

UPDATE FOR IPONE XS Users: in landscape mode, have the top of the phone to your right. If you hold it the other way, the “home button” swipe bar renders at the top of the screen and you effectively can’t use it, try to swipe down on it pulls Notification Center down.

This is still one of the best apps I’ve ever found on the store. It’s intuitive, useful, fun, just a joy to use. Come out with an updated version and take my money again.

Are use ScorekeeperXL for all my nerd related stuff. Including keeping score for boardgames, Magic the Gathering and hit points for all my Dungeons and Dragons monsters. It's super useful how each one can be color-coded.

I just wish I could add numbers to the titles of the different teams. For example James #1 and James #2.

I also wish it wouldn't automatically sort the teams according to score. It would be nice if they just stayed still.

Everyone actually reading this review, download and install ScorekeeperXL on your phone right now! The author is awesome. I would pay money for ScorekeeperXL. It does exactly what it needs to and you will be looking for any excuse to use it. Make Matt's dream of being a "real" developer one day come true. Do it! Hi, Matt! See, I told you that if you updated it I would give you 5 stars! You are on your way!

I'm old. I've used and tried thousands of apps. This may be the best ever. Does exactly what you want it to do. I use it for scorekeeping for soccer practice.

One thing would make this even better is to allow different groups of names. For example what if I coached two teams. Would I be able to keep the teams scores separate?

I’ve use this wonderful attacking the score of family board games for years and years.. The interface is all icons no text is so simple to use and has delightful sounds as scores change and the screen updates are buttery smooth.

I write reviews not to tell personal stories, but to quicken up the decision of if or not you should buy ScorekeeperXL . ScorekeeperXL is amazingly simple and easy to use and perfect for family game night. It’s just names, adding points, and setting starting amounts. It’s that simple. It’s that easy. It’s perfect.

Nice app a few issues that make it a little annoying. Player order changes as we enter score it should just stay locked unless we sort. This makes entering scores while pausing to calculate and re enter an issue. The swipe up handler on the non home button iPhones is at top instead of bottom and interferes with the system menu thingy.

Our family uses ScorekeeperXL all the time to track scores for various games, so I've been bummed to see it on the list of apps that won't work under iOS 11. Thank you to the developer for the update! Charge for ScorekeeperXL so we can support its development :-)

This is a free scorekeeper that’s at least 10 times better than any of the ones you pay for. I seriously recommend ScorekeeperXL. And you can keep score of multiple people at the same time! This is by far the best.

Also, I made some cool songs with this.

This is an example of an app UX should be designed.
It does what's supposed to do without trying to overachieve or fill the screen with corner cases options.
Developers, use this as a simple case study.

Wish you could add more than 1 point at a time to the scores, I use this for a board game to track my resources so add 50 points or maybe 300 points a turn for my money or food stats isn’t really practical, otherwise this is amazingly polished. Not all my friends who play my game have IOS though..

Looking forward to a few more features but this still works great for basic scorekeeping. Take my money!

2022 update: I’d like to give you money. I’d pay for Trainyard too I never finished it.

I love ScorekeeperXL but it needs like a spot for saving scoreboards so can you please…………… take my request amd I have another request ScorekeeperXL could use a spot for what place each player/team a position so those are my requests

I saw ScorekeeperXL in action this summer with a group of kids at a summer camp. They were so motivated by the instructor and his use of ScorekeeperXL that I downloaded it immediately. So happy it has 64bit support and can use it after the iOS update!

All the others I have used are either full of ads or super complicated. This is simple to use and no ads! Best score keeping app I have tried 👍

Tried many other scores keeping apps and this is still the best one, even with no updates for the newest edge to edge screen phones. Please update soon! (Or release this hinted newer version!)

Simple and fun and stylish. I want so excited to see an update that would allow me to keep using ScorekeeperXL after iOS 11!!

I look forward to seeing your new and improved score keeper!

Thanks!

ScorekeeperXL is so clean. It has kept score for countless card games. Easily one of the best made apps I’ve ever downloaded. You can tell effort went into making it, unlike most apps nowadays.

Wonderful app, great interface to use. No ads as well, makes everything dealing with sports and competitions so much easier. Big thanks to the creator

It’s a great app it really is, but I just wish you could save the scores and make a new one, but you can’t. Also, I wish there were more colors for it, not just ten. Otherwise, it’s a great app and I highly suggest that you should get it. Hopefully, they will add that stuff.
