Here’s how a typical family game night flows with Keeping Score! — from creating a game to sharing the final results.

The Scenario

Section titled “The Scenario”

It’s Friday night. The family is playing Catan. Four players, highest score wins, and you want to show the scores on the TV.

Step 1: Create the Game

Section titled “Step 1: Create the Game”
  1. Tap + to create a new game
  2. Title it “Catan” (or leave blank — the app generates a name)
  3. Add your family members — if you’ve saved them as personas, tap the persona picker to add them instantly
  4. Leave scoring mode as Highest Wins (the default)
  5. Tap the checkmark to start

Step 2: Cast to the TV

If you have an Apple TV or AirPlay-compatible display:

  1. Connect your iPhone to the TV via AirPlay
  2. A dedicated leaderboard automatically appears on the big screen
  3. Everyone can see the scores without crowding around your phone

The TV display uses a dark theme with large fonts — it’s designed to be read from across the room. Learn more about AirPlay.

Step 3: Score as You Play

Step 4: Finish the Game
