What’s new
Version 1.3.0 · Updated June 26, 2026
This update adds optional social features on top of the existing private, on-device bowling tracker: 1. Social tab — view friends and a global leaderboard. Adding friends is via a share link / Universal Link; the friend graph syncs through CloudKit. 2. Shared leagues & standings — a user can share one of their leagues via a code/link; members who join see a standings table (ranked by handicap or scratch average). 3. UI cleanup: the bowling-equipment screen moved into Profile, and the "Bowl" sheet was reorganized.
