How to use Scoringer
Simple steps for every part of the app.
Start a round
- On the Home screen, tap New.
- Single round: one day of golf for one group or several groups.
- Tournament: several rounds (for example over a weekend), teams, matches and side games.
- Pick the course, the tee, the players and their handicaps, then tap Start.
Invite players
- Open the gear and tap Invite players. Others scan the QR code with their phone camera, or you send them the link.
- When they open it, they are asked "Who are you?". They tap their own name.
- Not playing? Tap "Just watching". You can see the scores and chat, but not enter scores. You can switch to a player later from the Spectating bar at the top.
Enter scores
- On the hole screen, tap the big + next to a player.
- A small box opens with the par already filled in. Use - and + to change it, then tap Save.
- Auto-advance (the switch under the hole name) opens the next player for you after each Save. Turn it off if you prefer to pick each player yourself.
- Tap a score again to change it.
Leaderboard, Matches and Scorecard
- Leaderboard: who is winning, and how many holes each player has played.
- Matches: the score of each match (for example "2 up").
- Scorecard: every hole for every player. Tap a box to fix a score.
Chat and announcements
- Tap Chat to send a message to everyone in the round.
- The organizer can pin an announcement. It stays at the top of the chat so nobody misses it.
Simple view and Large text
- Simple view shows only the big buttons you need: enter scores, leaderboard and chat.
- Large text makes all the words bigger and easier to read.
- You find both in the gear menu.
Settle up and side bets
- Side bets such as skins are set when you create the round.
- At the end, Settle up shows who owes whom, so everyone can pay up quickly.
Recovery code and Find my rounds
- Your rounds are kept on this phone. If you get a new phone, you can bring them back.
- On the Home screen, tap the gear, then "My recovery code". Write the code down or copy it somewhere safe.
- On the new phone, tap the gear, then "Find my rounds", and type the code. Your rounds come back.
Report a problem
- Something not working? Tap the gear, then "Report a problem".
- Say in a few words what happened and tap Send. It reaches the people who build the app.
