Free spades score keeper that knows the rules
Spades is easy to score wrong at the table: two bids, the tricks each side took, bags creeping toward a penalty, and a nil that can swing a hand by a hundred points either way. Enter each player's bid and the tricks they took, and the score sheet does the adding, keeps the bag count beside each total and shows who deals next.
- Enter bids and tricks; bags, nil and blind nil are scored for you
- Partners or cutthroat (3 or 4 players)
- House rules: bag limit and penalty, nil value, 10 for 200, Boston wins, minimum bid
- Tap any past hand on the score sheet to fix it; every total re-adds itself
Spades, three hands in
Enter each hand on your phone and the sheet adds itself up: running totals, who deals next, and the standings everyone can follow on the match link or a TV. Tap any earlier hand to fix it and every total after it updates.

How spades scoring works
Enter each player's bid, then the tricks they took once the hand is played. A side that makes its bid scores 10 a trick bid plus 1 for every overtrick (a bag); a side that falls short loses 10 a trick bid. The app checks that the tricks add up to the hand before it scores it.
