Padel Score for Watch

Game. Set. Match.

Padel moves fast, and somewhere around 40-40 someone always loses track. Arguing about the score is the least fun part of the match.

What it does

• Large tap targets sized for a watch face, so you can add a point without breaking rhythm
• Full Golden Point support for the No-Ad rule at 40-40
• Best of 1 or 3 sets, with an optional super tie-break for the decider
• Undo, because everyone mis-taps at least once a match

Do I need my iPhone?

Not while you are using it. This is a standalone watchOS app: it runs on the Apple Watch on its own, with the phone switched off or left behind. You do need an iPhone once, to purchase and install it — that is an App Store rule rather than anything about this app.

Questions

Do I need my iPhone on court?

No. The app runs entirely on the watch, so you can leave your phone in your bag. You do need an iPhone once, to buy and install it.

Does it handle the Golden Point rule?

Yes. You can play 40-40 as a single decisive point, which is how most club and competitive padel is now scored.

Can I fix the score if I tap the wrong button?

Yes, there is a one-tap undo that steps the score back, including across game and set boundaries.

Will it drain my watch battery during a long match?

No. It only draws the score and waits for taps, so a full three-setter costs very little.

I build apps like this for clients too — see what that involves.
