Your data stays on this device
The current free beta doesn't sync scores or teams to a cloud account. A Safari tab, installed iPhone Home Screen app, or different website origin may have separate storage.
Export Complete Backup regularly from Stataru's Backup & Data screen. Keep the downloaded JSON in a safe place, and verify imports before deleting old data.
What we'd like you to test
- Start and complete a game with Classic and Court Tracker.
- Make shots, undo mistakes, substitute players.
- Review the box score and shot chart.
- Schedule a season or tournament matchup.
- Save and resume a game; export and import a backup.
- Use the app in airplane mode after initial installation.
Beta FAQ
Do I need to create an account?
No. Free scoring works without an account. Optional free accounts and Premium cloud services are planned for later.
Is the app available in the App Store or Google Play?
Not yet. This beta uses the website and its Home Screen installation. Native app-store distribution is on the roadmap.
Can I use it without Wi-Fi at the gym?
The app has offline caching, but you must first load it online and confirm it opens in Airplane Mode on your device. Browser and installed-app storage can differ.
Will my games sync between my phone and laptop?
Not yet. To move data, export a complete JSON backup and import it on the other device. Automatic sync will be a Premium feature.

Court IQ
Make every tracked play useful
Explore five-player lineup effectiveness, individual player impact, hustle contributions, and shooting, turnover and rebounding trends. Playing time is optional for raw plus/minus, but needed for per-10-minute comparisons.
Lineups & player impact
Record both teams' scores and substitutions for reliable plus/minus. Accurate game-clock time adds player and lineup minutes.
Optional hustle stats
Track deflections, loose balls, charges, box-outs, fouls drawn and forced turnovers only if they fit your scorekeeping workload.
Scoring context
Confirm second-chance, points-off-turnover, or fast-break tags. The app flags partial coverage; missing events are not assumed to be zero.
Clock & lineup tracking
No Clock: Track both teams’ scores and accurate substitutions to calculate raw player and lineup plus/minus. Minutes are not available.
Elapsed Playing Time (recommended for live scoring): Counts upward only while the official game clock runs. Start and pause with the official clock; Stataru does not need a period length.
Game Clock (Countdown): Set the minutes for each period on the live clock, then tap Start. Useful when you want to follow the scoreboard or operate a clock. Countdown does not have to be the official game clock.
For reliable playing time, pause whenever the official clock stops, correctly record all substitutions, and confirm the on-court five. If timing is interrupted or corrected, Stataru flags the affected minutes as unverified; scores and recorded plays are preserved. Raw plus/minus does not require time, but plus/minus per 10 minutes and lineup minutes do.
