Quick answers
How do I start a match?
On Apple Watch, pick Doubles, Singles or Rally on the home screen. On iPhone, set the format (doubles or singles, side-out or rally scoring, games to 11, 15 or 21, single game or best of 3 or 5), tap Get Ready, then Start Match.
How does scorekeeping work?
After each rally, tap the side that won it (bottom of the watch for your side, top for theirs) or turn the Digital Crown: down for you, up for them. WatchStats handles points, side-outs, server numbers and the call, like 4-2-1.
Does it save workouts to Apple Health?
Yes. Starting a game on Apple Watch starts a pickleball workout, saved to the Health app with heart rate, active calories and time. It shows in the Fitness app and counts toward your Activity rings. You can change what WatchStats may use in the Health app.
Can friends watch the score live?
Yes. Open Live board from the iPhone scoreboard's controls and share the link or QR code; anyone can follow at watchstats.thecloudgrid.com/scores.
