Bracket Maker: Tournament Pad

Bracket Maker is a fast, private tournament manager for creating brackets, recording scores, and keeping every round on track.

Choose a format, add players or teams, and start playing. Tap any match to enter the score - Bracket Maker updates the results and keeps the tournament moving.

CHOOSE YOUR FORMAT

• League phase - one table for everyone, opponents drawn from seeding pots, then a play-in and a knockout for the top places
• Swiss - players meet opponents with the same score each round, ranked with Buchholz tiebreaks
• Single elimination - one loss and you are out, with an optional third-place match
• Double elimination - a losers bracket, so nobody goes home after one bad match
• Round robin - everyone plays everyone, once or home and away, with a live standings table
• Groups + playoffs - group stage first, then a knockout bracket for the ones who made it

Draws count wherever a table decides, with your own points for a win, a draw and a loss. A match can be a single game or a best of three, five or seven, entered set by set.

A bracket that holds up: byes are handed out evenly at any number of participants, seeding is respected, and the double elimination bracket avoids early rematches. Got a result wrong? Undo it, and only the matches that depended on it are cleared.

RUN IT YOUR WAY

• Create brackets for 2 to 256 participants
• Add names one at a time or paste the full list

• Export any bracket as an image or PDF
• Save and share a backup file
• Works on iPhone and iPad

FREE SCORE COUNTER

Not every game needs a bracket. Start a game, add the players, give each one a color, and tap + or − as the points come in, or tap a score and type it. The leader is highlighted, and any change can be undone. The score counter is free for everyone - no Pro needed.

PRIVATE BY DESIGN

No account. No ads. No internet required. Everything works offline, and nothing you create reaches a server of ours - your tournaments and games live on your device, with a private copy in your own iCloud so the library survives reinstalling the app.

YOUR FIRST TOURNAMENT IS FREE

The first tournament is the whole app: every format, any size up to 256 participants, image and PDF export, and it stays yours forever. Creating more tournaments takes Bracket Maker Pro.

From sports and esports to board games, school events, and friendly competitions, Bracket Maker makes tournaments simple - from the first match to the champion.
