Score 500 Pro
** Fix for iPad crashes is awaiting Apple’s review… let me know if you experience any other problems. **
Keep score for your 500 card games on your iPhone (or touch).
- Available on the iOS App Store.
- NEW – Tournament mode, French Canadian (Quebec) mode – and many other settings.
- Score all hands from 6 spades to open misére and remember who won (all your previous games).
- Also a good bid list reference – shows the suit order and points awarded for each type of bid.

I love your Score 500 app and it makes my 500 game play much easier, BUT, how do I re-set / clear my game list? Hope you can help
@tris: on the game list you can swipe to delete (or select edit) and delete each game.
At the moment there isn’t a reset all games option – if you really want to delete all the games you could remove and re-add the app.
I’m hoping that someday, someone will create a Five Hundred multiplayer card app! Will it be you?
@kirk: it’s certainly something I’m thinking about
Loved the score app. Please make the game! Single and multiplayer if you can come up with plausible computer players!
I’ve downloaded this awesome score keeper! I can’t actually find an application for the card game 500-any ideas?
Hi, In Quebec, Canada, the 500 scores up to 1000 (Don’t ask me why, but the winner is the first to get to 1000). Could you make an update where we could score all the way to 1000. Maybe we could set the winning score at the beginning in settings or another app: 500 Quebec.
thanks
another suggestion for the 500 Quebec: scores up to 1000, and the winner makes only the amount of points bidded, Ex: 8 NT , if the bidder makes 8 tricks or more, he gets 320 pts, if he does not make at least 8 tricks, the other team makes 320. If he gets only 8 bids, he still makes 320 points but the other team does not make any point. in Quebec, the winner of the turn (if the bidder makes at least the amount of tricks he bidded) make the point, but the losing team does not make any. Looks like in your game, the losing team makes some points according to the amount of tricks they made.
thanks,
I know a lot of people in Quebec that would love to have an app for their 500 game.
Could you make a version of this that is compatible with the Android phones, not just the iPhone? I love the game but I have a Droid incredible and I cannot find a similar app for it.
@brian: It might be an option as something I do for my first android app (prior to doing 500 the full game for android)… but this is way off in the future.
It would be really great if there was an option to add individual points or when noone makes it and you go no trumps at 10 points a trick.
@mattis: I’m not sure I follow your situation. Is it if no-one bids then you play the hand as no-trumps and each team gets 10 points per trick (i.e. no winner or loser).
I would like to purchase the pro version as I would like to keep score for games with more than 2 teams but I only have iOS 4 at the moment. Any chance of making the pro version iOS 4 compatible?
Also, it would be great to see a good AI version of 500 so I can practice playing as I am new to the game.
Working on it. Hopefully only a few more weeks away.
I’ll take a look at iOS4 conversion this week and as I’m probably not using anything that requires iOS5 hopefully it’ll be straightforward.
@deb: I’ve submitted the iOS 4.3 version of the app. Now we just wait for approval.
App will not open! Instant crash! Paid for pro, please help.
Hi Chelsea,
Sorry to hear that. To help me fix it could you send in the crash report… once you’ve synced with iTunes your computer should have a .crash file in one of the following places:
Mac OS X: ~/Library/Logs/CrashReporter/MobileDevice/
Windows XP: C:\Documents and Settings\\Application Data\Apple Computer\Logs\CrashReporter\MobileDevice\
Windows Vista or 7: C:\Users\\AppData\Roaming\Apple Computer\Logs\CrashReporter\MobileDevice\

Hi Waldo,
I downloaded the app last night for my Ipad2 with IOS5 and am having the same crash issues already mentioned.
I will email you the .crash files.
In the interium, and tips that might get this working? I understand this is an iphone app ‘technically’ but i have not run into a compatibility issue before!!
Cheers.
Robert.
Can you send me the email address you would like the crash reports sent! I cant find it anywhere on the site.
Cheers.
@robert: I’ve just sent you an email. Sorry for the slow response.
Thank you. That’s awesome.
hi
have been using score 500 and absolutely love it has made our games so much easier and bragging so much easier. we play in the same teams once a month and its great to see those big green ticks.
Have just brought pro and have one problem how do i delete games like in score 500?
also a suggestion of adding a feature of keeping track of whose deal it is. as we are always joking and interruptions like kids we loose track some times. It would make it the best app ever if it good do that as well.
thanks for the fun
@hamish: thanks for the feedback
I’m not sure where I’d add a dealer token since that’d be per player and at the moment it only shows teams. But I’ll let it percolate for later.
You can delete games or the last (bottom) round by swiping left to right (or right to left) on the row of the game (or round) you didn’t win – a delete button should appear, tap it to delete forever.
