Record plays
Choose a player or team and record the statistic. After a made 2PT or 3PT basket, optionally assign an assist and confirm scoring-context tags together. Record the basket only once; use Recent Plays to edit its details. Free throws and +1 quick scores never have assists or fast-break tags. When enabled, they can still be tagged as second-chance points or points off turnovers. Use correction or undo for mistakes.
Review and export
Completed games can be reviewed for box scores and shot charts. In Backup & Data, use Export Complete Backup to save JSON.
Not sure what “install” means?
You can always use Stataru directly in your browser. Adding it to your Home Screen is optional, but recommended for game day. On iPhone, look for the Share button that looks like a box with an arrow pointing up.
During beta
Stataru is still being tested. For official competition scoring, maintain an independent score record. Never clear browser storage without first exporting and verifying a complete backup.

NEW OPTIONAL STATS
Hustle, defense and scoring context
Choose optional stats in New Game → Tracking Setup. During a game, use ＋ Extra Stat to record loose balls, deflections, charges, box-outs, fouls drawn or forced turnovers. After made shots, the optional Basket Details panel combines assist selection (when enabled) with scoring-context tags. Steals, turnovers and fouls can also offer optional follow-ups. To credit an assist after the fact, tap Assist and link it to a recent made field goal.
Second-chance, turnover and fast-break points require confirmation; Stataru does not infer final totals from an incomplete play history. One basket may qualify for more than one scoring context. New optional tracking does not create additional points, fouls or turnovers automatically. During a game, tap ⚙ Stats to stop or restart an optional statistic. Existing entries remain saved; Court IQ marks a statistic partial if its tracking was interrupted. Game changes do not alter saved defaults unless requested.
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.
