# How do I turn an iPad into a pickleball scoreboard?

https://picklecall.app/features/ipad-scoreboard · Unlock · Kallos Labs

> Open a game in Pickle Call on an iPad and it becomes a full-screen courtside scoreboard: team names, large scores, the call, games won and who serves. You score from the iPad itself, one tap per rally, and the board is readable from the next court.

## How it works

The scoreboard works in landscape and portrait, in light and dark, with the same rules as the iPhone app: side-out or rally scoring, singles or doubles, games to 11, 15 or 21 and matches of best of 1, 3 or 5. Tap the side that won the rally; undo takes it back. It is made for an iPad on a stand at the side of the court. The iPad scoreboard comes with Pickle Call Unlock.

## When people use it

- A club or event desk showing the score to players and spectators
- Coaches running games and drills
- A home court with an iPad on a stand

## Questions

### Can the iPad mirror a game scored on another device?

Not today. The iPad scores the game itself; the board updates with each tap on the iPad.

### Does it work in portrait?

Yes, in landscape and portrait.

### Is the scoreboard part of the unlock?

Yes. The iPad scoreboard comes with Pickle Call Unlock, a one-time purchase with no subscription.
