Score Recorder

---|
This Universal app was created to record the scores of games simply without the need to use pen and paper while giving the impression that a piece of ruled paper is being used. It can be used for recording the results of many sorts of games eg Scrabble, darts, golf as well as many card games such as UNO, tournaments, hand and foot, the pointy end of sailing regattas etc. It can even be used to add up a list of numbers.
It displays the total of each player's scores so they don't have to be added to the previous total after each round, thereby reducing the need for mental arithmetic.
Names of the players or teams or groups are easily entered. Multiple games can be scored at the same time. Tap the Games button to bring up a list of previously-entered games or to add a new game. Games on the list can be deleted by carefully swiping across the name from right to left. It is also possible to change the name of any game. Double-tap a player's name to customise its colour. The players can be optionally sorted by their total scores in ascending or descending order.
To enter a score on the iPhone or iPod Touch simply tap the player's name or total score or in the line immediately under the player's last score, enter the score using the keypad that appears and then either tap the OK button or, if the game is not sorted, tap on another player.
