Chess Clock & Scorepad

A chess clock that also keeps the scoresheet. Play each move on the board and the clock presses itself, then share the game as PGN. Free, no account.

Chess Clock & Scorepad is a two-player chess clock on one phone. Put it on the table between you, tap your side after each move, and the other clock starts. It can also record the game: make each move on the board and the clock presses itself, then review the game or share it as PGN.

A CLOCK FOR OVER-THE-BOARD CHESS

• 15 ready time controls, from 1-minute bullet through blitz and rapid to the FIDE 90/40 + 30 classical control
• Fischer increment, Bronstein, and US delay, each timed exactly
• Multi-stage controls: the next stage's time arrives with the last move of the stage
• Save up to 12 controls of your own, with names
• Handicap: give the stronger player less time
• The press registers the moment your finger lands, like slapping a real clock
• Low-time warnings at 5 min, 2 min, 1 min and 30 s, and a red face when a flag falls
• Pause, take back a mis-press, or add time while the clock is paused
• A sideways table layout, with the faces turned toward each player

A SCORESHEET THAT KEEPS ITSELF

• Play clock only, clock and scoresheet, or scoresheet only
• Tap a piece, then its square. Only legal moves can be made, and the clock presses itself
• One tap is enough when only one piece can reach the square
• Each face shows captured pieces and the material lead
• The opening is named as you play, from the public-domain lichess opening list
• Automatic draws by fivefold repetition and the 75-move rule; draws by agreement and resignation ask first, so one slip can't end the game

REVIEW AND SHARE

• Step through any game move by move, turn the board, and see a chart of the time each move took
• Clock use for each player: the average move, the longest think and the moves played in time trouble
• Mark moves and add comments, saved in standard PGN notation
• Share or copy a game as PGN, with each move's clock time included, or open it for analysis on lichess
• Export every game as one PGN file, or import games from a file or the clipboard (lichess and chess.com exports)

YOUR GAMES STAY ON YOUR PHONE

• Your games listed by month, with totals and a head-to-head record for two named players
• A record for every player you name: with White and Black, by time control, against each opponent and in each opening
• No account and no sign-in. Games leave the phone only when you share or export them
• The clock pauses when the phone goes to the background, and a game reopens on the same move

MADE FOR THE TABLE

• Four board themes: slate, walnut, tournament and marble
• Clock sounds you can turn off, and vibration
• Large digits, large text support and screen readers: a screen reader can play every move
• On an iPad or an unfolded iPhone Duo, the Games list and the player list keep the game or record you pick open beside them

FREE, WITH A SMALL BANNER Banner ads appear on the home screen, in the Games list, in player records, in review and in Settings. Never on the running clock or the scorepad. Nothing to buy.
