I Built a Voice-controlled Snooker Scorekeeper for Iphone - Feedback Welcome
Hi all, long-time snooker player here (decades at the table, sadly not decades of century breaks).
I got tired of the mid-frame score arguments with my regular partners, so I built an iPhone app called SnookScore. You just call the action out loud - "pot the pink", "foul, four points" - and it keeps the frame score for you against proper snooker rules, including fouls, free balls and respotted blacks.
The part I'm happiest with: the voice recognition runs on-device using Apple's framework, so it works offline even in a club basement with no signal. The hardest part to get right was interpreting natural voice commands against the current frame state - turns out encoding all the rules into game logic is a real rabbit hole.
It's free to download and free to play, with some advanced features as in-app purchases.
If any snooker players here want to give it a go and tell me what breaks, I'd genuinely appreciate the feedback: https://apps.apple.com/us/app/snookscore-voice-scorekeeper/id6813533974
Thanks, and clear tables to everyone! Gilad
