What's New

This screen appears once when a new app release is installed. Tap the ? button at the top of the scorekeeper at any time to see these notes again.

Version 1.5
  • 5 Crowns rounds after 10 are now labeled 11, 12, and 13. The wild-card description still shows Jacks, Queens, and Kings.
  • Finish Round now appears above Clear This Round and Start New Game.
  • Player names are larger on the scorecard, and the duplicate points-behind text under each player name has been removed. Standings information remains in the Total column.
  • Score entry is now a single plain number field for each player, with no spinner arrows or separate 0 button.
Version 1.4
  • Added Play Again — Same Players on the final-score screen to immediately start another game of the same type with the same players.
  • Start New Game now clears the scores but remembers the current player names, so they are already filled in when you choose the next game.
  • The SkyJo target score is also remembered when starting another game.
Version 1.3
  • Removed the explanatory standings line above the scorecard and the instructional text below the round controls for a cleaner scoring screen.
  • Added Created By: Rob Williams at the bottom of the app.
  • Added the release Version and a separate Build ID for troubleshooting.
  • Added this What's New screen. It appears once for each new release and can be reopened with the ? button.
Version 1.2
  • Added live 1st, 2nd, 3rd and subsequent-place indicators without changing the physical order of the player rows.
  • Added a visual leader highlight and shows how many points each player is behind the leader.
  • Added tie handling so tied players receive the same rank.
  • Standings are based on completed rounds so rankings do not jump while the current round is being entered.
Version 1.1
  • Created one scorekeeper for both SkyJo and 5 Crowns, supporting 2 to 8 players with round scores and running totals.
  • SkyJo includes a configurable game-ending target and lets you continue or end the game when the target is reached.
  • 5 Crowns automatically steps through the 3 through King rounds, shows the current wild card, and includes a quick 0-score button.
  • Game progress is saved locally on the device and the app supports offline/PWA use after it has been loaded.
