Serve indicator
Always know who serves
A gold dot marks the serving team and a letter shows the side. The tie-break gets its own banner.
Padel scoreboard with voice Always know who serves, what the score is, and what comes next.
PadelRef is a free padel referee and scoreboard app for Android, iPhone and Apple Watch that shows the score and who’s serving, and can call both out loud. One scoreboard for all four of you. Score from your phone, a Bluetooth remote or your Apple Watch; PadelRef calls the score and, if you switch it on, who’s serving.
Free to score, voice free to try. No accounts, no cloud.
Four players, four versions of the match
Who serves? Deuce or advantage? Are we in the tie-break yet?
When you start out, following the match is harder than playing it. Once you know it cold, it’s memory that fails. PadelRef shows and calls the state of the match so the only thing on your mind is the next ball.
