Keep score from your wrist, by the real rules, and stay in the rally.

One press after each rally: the top button when your team wins it, the bottom one when they do. Pickleball Scorer works out the score to call, who serves and which side they serve from. In doubles it tells you whether it's your serve or your partner's, and shows where you should stand.

- The score the way it's called ("4-2-2"), big and clear, with a little court showing the server and the receiver
- You or your partner: "YOU SERVE · RIGHT", "PARTNER RECEIVES · LEFT", and a ring where you should be. One press swaps you if you started on the other side
- Every rule kept for you, from USA Pickleball's 2026 rulebook: traditional doubles with first and second servers and the 0-0-2 start, singles, and rally scoring, where either team can win on any rally. "Win on serve only" brings back the freeze for leagues that still use it
- Games to 11, 15 or 21, won by 2; matches of 1, 3 or 5 games
- Game point and match point on screen; side outs, second servers, switching ends and wins each have their own buzz, so you needn't look
- Undo any number of rallies, back to the start of the game
- A whole session as one workout: match after match, saved once
- Saved to Garmin Connect as a Pickleball activity: heart rate, calories and time, each game as a lap with its score, the matches, games and rallies won, and a chart of your lead
- Picks up where you left off: if the app closes mid-match, carry on with the score as it was
- Your last 10 matches on the watch
- Runs on over 140 Garmin watches: Forerunner, fēnix, epix, Enduro, Venu, vívoactive, Instinct, Approach, D2, Descent and MARQ. On the Instinct, the court sits in its little round window

One purchase, no subscription. Pickleball Scorer collects no data and needs no phone connection.

On watches older than Connect IQ 4.1.6 (fēnix 6, vívoactive 4, Venu, Instinct 2 and Forerunner 245, 745 and 945), which don't have the Pickleball activity, matches are saved as Tennis. You can change the activity type in Garmin Connect.
