Cric Counter - an Android and Apple app for keeping score of cricket matches
Tom umpires cricket matches most weekends and was unable to find a suitable app for keeping score - everything he tried was too complex and had usability issues. So for this month’s Webscope Lab day, we worked together to design and build a mobile app for keeping score of cricket games that would be simple, flexible and easy to use.
We already had our mobile development workflow in place, so we began the day by splitting the development work into distinct chunks of functionality, as well as assigning tasks around design, copy writing, etc. By the end of the day we were able to merge all of our work together, build Android and iOS versions of the application and submit them to the app stores.
On the next Webscope Labs day we’ll be working on push notifications and functionality to save games, so expect updates to the app then.
It’s available for free on the Google Play and Apple app stores - perfect for those of you who will be umpiring backyard and beach cricket matches this summer.
