Deuce and advantage
Tracked automatically, including no-ad formats where a single deciding point settles the game and the receiver picks the side.

A tennis score keeper that keeps up with the match
One tap per point. Deuce, tiebreaks, and set transitions resolve on their own, for singles or doubles. When the match ends it is already saved, and already in front of everyone in your club.
Why keeping score on paper stops working
Every regular player has the same three problems. You lose track of who served after a long changeover. You finish a good match and realise nobody wrote the score down. And by the end of a season you have a vague sense of how you played rather than anything you could show someone.
A score keeper solves all three at once, but only if using it is faster than not using it. That is the design constraint everything below follows from.
How the scoring works
-
Pick the format before you start
Best of three, a single set, a pro set, a match tiebreak, no-ad, singles or doubles. This one choice is what lets the app resolve every later decision without asking you again.
-
Tap to award each point
The scoreboard handles 15, 30, 40, deuce and advantage on its own. You do not need to remember whether 40–40 goes to advantage or a deciding point, because the format already answered that.
-
Or catch up at the changeover
Prefer not to touch your phone between points? Update in batches. The app takes four games at once as happily as it takes one point, so it fits either habit.
-
Finish, and everyone already knows
The match saves itself into your history, your stats, and your club feed. There is no "log this match" step to forget, and nobody has to be told the result.
What it handles for you
Tiebreaks
At 6–6 the scoreboard switches to tiebreak counting, alternates service every two points after the first, and prompts the change of ends every six.
Service rotation
Who serves next is tracked across games and through tiebreaks — the single most common source of mid-set disagreement, removed.
Doubles pairings
Results are recorded against the pairing, so your record with each partner stays separate rather than collapsing into one blended number.
Short formats
Pro sets, Fast4, and match tiebreaks are all first-class options, because most club tennis has to fit inside a court booking.
Solo sessions
Drills and practice hits log alongside matches and count toward your streaks, so the work you do alone still shows up.
New to tennis scoring?
If the 15–30–40 sequence, deuce, and tiebreaks are still unfamiliar, the app will handle them for you — but it is worth understanding what it is doing. Our guide to how to keep score in tennis walks through the whole system in the order a real match unfolds, and the tennis terms glossary covers the vocabulary you will hear courtside.
Frequently asked questions
- Is there a free tennis score keeper app?
- Yes. FuzzyTennis is free to download on the App Store for iPhone, and includes match scoring, history, and stats without a paid tier for the core scoring features.
- Does the app handle deuce and tiebreaks automatically?
- Yes. Deuce, advantage, game boundaries, set transitions and tiebreaks all resolve automatically based on the format you choose at the start of the match, so you never have to work out the score yourself.
- Can I keep score for doubles matches?
- Yes. Both singles and doubles are supported, and doubles results are recorded against the pairing so partner history stays accurate across a season.
- Do I have to score every single point?
- No. You can tap through point by point, or update the score in batches during changeovers. The app accepts several games at once just as easily as one point.
- What happens to a match after it finishes?
- It is saved automatically to your match history and feeds your win rate, streaks and head-to-head records. There is no separate step to log or confirm the match afterwards.
