- Duplicate Bridge scorepad features:
+ Enter your Boards one at a time, in batches (e.g. by round) or all at once.
+ Personalize the scoresheet with a description and your player/team ID to highlight your team's scores in the scoresheet.

+ When scoring Rubber or Chicago on an iPad, there is a "Large font" user preference to help others at the table better see the scoresheet too.

- Sum scores across scoresheets to track players over a period of time (currently for Rubber Bridge and Chicago Bridge only). The report includes a grand total by player as well as subtotals by the dates of the scoresheets (i.e. subtotals for all the scoresheets played on a single date). The report can be emailed or printed (*) directly from your device.

- Includes a reference copy of the standard rules for scoring contract bridge (based on the 2004 International Laws of Contract Bridge).

- Standalone scoring calculator (on the 'backside' of the scoring rules). Use it to score a hand or simply to better understand the nuances of contract bridge scoring.

(*) Printing directly from the device requires an available AirPrint compatible printer. eMailing requires that your device has been configured to send emails.

Create a new Rubber or Chicago scoresheet pre-populated with the current teams and players (use the Options button at the top of the Rubber & Chicago scoresheet screens).

Bug fix - in rare instances, when a bid 'cut off' an "opponents' legs" some of the opponent's part game contracts could disappear from the scoresheet (though they were still in the score) - these now display correctly.

Note regarding emailing scoresheets and reports: eMailing works best on devices running iOS versions 4.2 or later.
