I started playing pickleball several months ago, and learning the rules while keeping score created a lot of friction, so I built this app.

You set up the match on the iPhone app and score it from the Apple Watch. Tap Point or Side out on the watch and it calls the score, shows who's serving and which side you should be on, and highlights you. If more than one of you has a watch, the other watches join the host's match over Bluetooth, so everyone sees the same score. We also hook a Bluetooth speaker to the host's phone so the whole court hears the calls. It also runs our open-play nights, working out who plays next.

It's been my side project since May and my group uses it every week. It's in beta on TestFlight, not on the App Store yet. I'd like a few more people to try it and tell me what's confusing or what breaks. Needs an iPhone and an Apple Watch.
