Scoring
Does the app use point-a-rally scoring?
Yes. Every rally gives a point to the player who wins it, and the rally winner serves next. A game goes to 11, and at 10-all play continues until one player leads by two. You can also play to 15.
How does the app show the service box?
The serving player's tile says Right box or Left box. After winning the serve you start from the right box, then switch with every point you win on serve. If you prefer to start on the left, just serve from there: the scoring stays the same.
Does the app call hand-out?
Yes. When the serve passes to the other player the voice says "Hand-out" and then the score, the server's score first. In English it says "game ball" and "match ball", like a marker.
How many games can a match have?
A single game, best of 3 or best of 5. The default is best of 5 (first to three games).
Do the players change ends?
No. Squash players share the court, so the tiles stay where they are. Between games the app pauses with the result until you tap Next game.
Apple Watch
Do I need my iPhone on court?
No. The Apple Watch app runs on its own. Leave the phone in your bag.
How do I score without touching the screen?
Turn on Gesture Scoring in the watch app's settings. Double Tap (tap index finger and thumb together twice) adds a point for you, and Wrist Flick (turn your wrist away and back quickly) adds one for your opponent. Double Tap needs Apple Watch Series 9, Ultra 2 or newer. Leave gestures off if you wear the watch on your playing arm.
Will the screen stay on during a match?
Yes. While a match runs as a workout, the score stays on the screen. On iPhone, iPad and Mac the app keeps the display awake during a match; you can turn that off in the settings.
Can the app call out the score?
Yes. The app announces the score after every point, with deuce, game point and match point. Turn on streaks for arcade-style calls like "Double Point" and "Mega Point". It uses the voice of your device and works offline.
Health and privacy
Does the match count as a workout?
On Apple Watch, yes. With Track as workout on, each match is saved to Apple Health as a squash workout with duration, heart rate and active calories, and it fills your Activity rings. You can turn it off in the settings.
The workout is not saved. What can I do?
Open the Settings app on your iPhone, go to Health → Data Access & Devices (or Settings → Health → Apps on the watch), select the app and allow it to write workouts, heart rate and active energy.
What data does the app collect?
None. Your scores, player names and settings stay on your device. There is no account, no analytics and no advertising. The App Store privacy label says "Data Not Collected". Details are in the privacy policy.
Purchase and devices
Which devices are supported?
Apple Watch with watchOS 26, iPhone with iOS 26, iPad with iPadOS 26 and Mac with macOS 26.
Do I have to buy the app twice for iPhone and Mac?
No. One purchase covers iPhone, iPad, Mac and Apple Watch (universal purchase). On a new device, just download it again with the same Apple Account. Family Sharing is supported.
Do the devices sync?
Each device keeps its own match history. You can start a match on whichever device is closest, for example the watch on court or the iPad on the umpire's chair.
Which languages does the app speak?
English, German, French, Spanish, Italian, Japanese, Simplified Chinese, Traditional Chinese, Arabic and Vietnamese.
Is there a subscription or ads?
No. It is a one-time purchase on the App Store with no subscription and no ads.
