About this app
Keep the scores, turns, and chips in one place while your group plays Pig.
Why you need two devices
You need two devices to keep the scoring controls and scoreboard visible while you play. There is too much happening to comfortably use both on the same screen: one device records the action while the other shows the table’s scores.
Put a laptop or iPad where everyone can see the scoreboard. Keep a phone or another iPad beside the person recording rolls and turns.
Connecting your devices
- Start a session on the first device. On its home or chip-bank page, choose Generate join code.
- Choose Text or share invite and pick Messages, or use Copy link to paste the invite into a text to the other device. Open the link and tap Join. You can also open this site, choose Join a game, and enter the four-letter code.
- Choose scoring controls on one device and a scoreboard on the other. Both now share the live game.
The invitation uses the first player’s name as the host. Each link or code is reusable for seven days from creation and connects up to 99 devices. Use the same invitation when switching phones, tablets, or computers. Only share invites with your table: connected devices can score games and see that session’s history.
Connected devices keep access until the invitation’s expiry. Generating another code replaces the old link and code for new joins; devices already connected keep their original expiry. If the host starts another session, ask for a new invitation. Leaving the shared table frees a device place and returns you to your own private sessions.

Shared scoreboard
Give the table a clear view of the scores and current turn. Use the standard board on a laptop or the dedicated iPad board.
Standard scoreboardiPad scoreboardStart with your group
Create a private session with 2–10 players. Enter each player’s name and choose one starting chip count for everyone.
A session keeps your group’s games, chip bank, and history together. Start another session when you want a fresh table. Other visitors do not see your sessions unless you give them a join code.
Save the setup for later
Download your session config as an XML file to save the player names and equal starting chip count. Import that file when creating a session, review the setup, and start a fresh game.
The file contains setup only. It does not include scores, game history, chip balances, or access to an existing private session. Importing it on another device creates a separate session; it does not link the devices.
