Tennis Score for Watch

Game. Set. Match.

Tennis scoring has more edge cases than people remember: deuce, advantage, tie-breaks at 6-6, super tie-breaks in the third. Two sets in, nobody is certain any more.

What it does

• Tap through 15-30-40 with buttons big enough to hit while moving
• Automatic handling of deuce, advantage, tie-breaks and super tie-breaks
• Matches of 1, 3 or 5 sets
• Undo for the point you assigned to the wrong player

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

Does it work without my iPhone?

Yes, it runs standalone on the watch. An iPhone is only needed once, to purchase and install.

Does it track tie-breaks correctly?

Yes, including the switch to a super tie-break in place of a final set when you choose that format.

Can I use it for doubles?

Yes. Scoring is identical; the app tracks points rather than individual players.

Does it record match history?

It is built for keeping score during play rather than logging a season. If match history matters to you, tell me and I will consider it.

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