Scoring that actually works on a phone.

Most golf scoring apps are shrunken desktop interfaces. Back9Ops was built mobile-first, thumb-first, from day one.

A golfer's scorecard open in a phone browser: tapping a hole opens a keypad, and one tap on the number records the score

This is the whole interaction

Tap the hole, tap the number. The score saves itself โ€” there is no submit button to forget and no stepper to nudge up and down. Shown here in a phone browser, which is how a guest scores without installing anything.

๐Ÿ‘†

Tap any hole to enter a score

Players tap the hole, then tap the number. That is the whole interaction โ€” one tap for the score, no stepper to nudge up and down, no submit button. It saves the moment you tap.

๐Ÿ“

48px+ touch targets on every button

Every tappable element meets the WCAG 2.5.5 minimum target size. Players can score accurately on any phone, in any light, with a glove on. Details that matter on hole 17.

โšก

Auto-save โ€” no "submit" required

Scores are saved the instant they're entered. Players never lose a hole to a bad connection or accidentally backing out of the screen. No "did that save?" anxiety.

๐Ÿ“Š

Live leaderboard while scoring

Players can see the leaderboard between holes without leaving the scoring screen. Real-time standings update as other groups post their scores. Keeps everyone engaged through 18.

๐Ÿ“ท

QR guest scoring โ€” no account needed

Scan the QR code on the printed scorecard or the cart sign and score without creating an account. Built for charity events, member-guest tournaments, and any round with players who won't download yet another app. Included on the League and Club plans.
