Tournaments
Score a tournament on several phones
A tournament can be scored on as many phones as you have boards. Each phone takes one match at a time, and results show up on every phone following the tournament.

- Open the tournamentEach scorer opens the tournament on their own phone.
- Play a matchTap a match in the draw, then Play match. That phone now holds the match until it's done.
Who can score
| Who | What they can do |
|---|---|
| Organizer | Everything, including correcting a decided score or the match length. |
| Scorers | Play any match, enter a result, give a walkover and take over a match. |
| Players | Play their own matches, or report a result for their opponent to confirm, with or without an account. |
When a match is on another phone
A match being scored elsewhere says Being scored on that person's device. An organizer or scorer can tap Take over scoring to carry on from where it left off, and the first phone stops scoring. You can also take over a match from your own other device. A match nobody has touched for 10 minutes is free to pick up.
If you leave a match partway, it shows at the top of the page under Pick up where you left off with Resume.
Reported results
A player who scores a match away from the app can tap Report result. Their opponent sees it and taps Confirm or That's wrong. An organizer or scorer enters a result directly.
