From the first draw to the final standings.

Petanque: Score & Tournament is a free iPhone, iPad and Apple Watch app that scores pétanque games round by round and runs club tournaments in four formats, with knockout cups, standings, piste assignment, PDF exports and AR distance estimates. Its home-screen name is Petanque; inside the app and on its exports it's called Petanque Companion.

Yes. It's free, with no ads, no in-app purchases and no subscription.

New tournaments can use Swiss System, Round Robin, Single Elimination or Mêlée-Casse, for singles, doubles or triples, and a Swiss tournament can finish with knockout cups A to D seeded from the standings. Teams rank by wins, then Buchholz, fine Buchholz and point difference, the order CEP events use, or by point difference first if you choose.

It ranks teams the same way as the standings and pairs down that ranking: each team meets the highest-ranked opponent it hasn't played yet, as long as the teams below can still be paired without a rematch. Two teams meet again only when no other pairing is left, as in the late rounds of a small field. The number of rounds follows the entry: three for up to 8 teams, four for up to 16, five for up to 32.

With an odd number of teams, the bye goes to the lowest-ranked team that hasn't had one yet and still leaves a pairing without rematches; a team gets a second bye only once everyone has had one. You choose what a bye counts as when you create the tournament, from 13–0 to 13–12; new tournaments start at 13–7. Tournaments started before version 2.0 keep their 13–6 byes.

Yes. Open the match and correct the score, and the standings are rebuilt from the matches. A correction can change the winner only in the latest round, and Swiss results lock once the cups are drawn.

It's an estimate. ARKit finds the ground and measures between the points you tap, and the result depends on your device, the light and the terrain. For a close decision, confirm with a physical measure.

Yes. The Watch shows both teams' scores, the round and the target, with +1, +2 and +3 buttons and a page of earlier rounds. It scores into the game running on your iPhone, so keep the phone nearby.

Yes. Petanque is built specifically for iPhone Duo: since version 1.4 the layout adapts to the space you have. Opened, it shows scoring with round history, tournament matches with the standings or a bracket, and the roster with player details. Closed, the outer screen keeps the same screens in a compact layout, and large text uses a simpler layout so the controls stay within reach. A score you're entering stays selected when the layout changes.

Yes. Scoring, tournaments, stats and AR measuring all work without an internet connection.

No account, cloud or tracking; your data is stored on your device. Games and tournaments are included in your normal iPhone backup, so restoring the backup brings them over.

Knockout cups A to D after the Swiss rounds, seeded from the standings; ties on wins broken by Buchholz and fine Buchholz first, as in CEP events; Swiss pairing without avoidable rematches; result corrections; a bye score you choose; saved teams in tournaments; games started at an agreed score; void ends; and a rules reference that follows the official FIPJP rules.

No. Tournaments started before 2.0 keep ranking by point difference first and their 13–6 byes, so finished standings never reshuffle. New tournaments use the CEP order and 13–7 byes unless you choose otherwise.
