How to use the shuffleboard score keeper
When all eight weights have been slid, look for the weight furthest down the board. Under Furthest weight, pick the side it belongs to, then tap 1, 2, 3 or Hanger 4 once for every weight of that side that lies beyond the other side's best weight. Each tap adds a chip you can tap again to remove. Press Score round (or Enter). If every weight fell off, pick Nobody and score the round with no points.
The Hammer marker shows who throws last. After each round it moves by the rule in Settings, and you can tap it to change it by hand. Open display window puts a big board on a bar TV, Print sheet prints every round, and Share link passes the score to another phone. Also for the game room: the pool score keeper and the cornhole scoreboard.
Table shuffleboard scoring
A weight in the 1, 2 or 3 zone scores that many points, and a hanger, a weight hanging over the far edge of the board, scores 4. Only one side scores in a round: the side whose weight lies furthest down the board. It scores each of its weights that is further than the other side's best one, so a round can be worth 1 point or several. Each player slides four weights per round.
The first side to reach 15 points wins. Some players and leagues play to 21, so the winning score is a setting. In common play the side that scored throws first in the next round, which hands the hammer to the other side, and that is the default here; switch to alternating hammer in Settings if your table plays that way.
Deck shuffleboard (the long outdoor court) is a setting too. There, both sides score every disc: 10, 8 or 7 for the scoring areas and minus 10 for a disc in the 10 off area, with the game played to 75. Pick the side under Discs for, tap a button for each of its discs, and score the round. If both sides pass the target in the same round, the tool gives the game to the higher score and keeps playing on a tie.

Questions
What is the hammer in shuffleboard?
The hammer is the last weight of the round. Throwing last is an advantage because nothing can knock that weight off afterward, which is why the marker moves between the sides.
Why can only one side score in a round?
In table shuffleboard only the weights beyond the opponent's furthest weight count, so the side that is behind at the far end scores nothing that round. That is why you only enter the scoring side's weights.
How much is a hanger worth?
A hanger scores 4 points. Tap Hanger 4 (or press 4) for each one.
Is deck shuffleboard supported?
Yes. In Settings choose Deck shuffleboard. The score keeper then counts both sides' discs each round and plays to 75 unless you change the target.
