BridgeScorer is an app for scoring whilst playing the Duplicate
Bridge card game.
It can score either at-the-table or after the event.
BridgeScorer can score a complete duplicate bridge session (from the travellers) producing results as web-pages for easy upload or e-mail.
BridgeScorer can also score at-the-table. Each table enters scores simultaneously as the boards are played.
Only one instance of the app is required but you'll need (at least) a phone for every table.
If preferred each pair can have their own phone (which they take with them as they move round the tables) and submit scores when they're sitting north-south.
The phones communicate over WiFi.
Only the phone running the app needs to be an Android device (phone or tablet) the others can be any feature phone or tablet with a Web-browser even an iPhone.
In addition to duplicate rubber and Chicago bridge can also be scored.
No computer (Windows Mac or any other) is required.
