Pinochle Parlor

Four-handed, double-deck pinochle: two partnerships bid, meld, and take tricks.

Deal in against the computers, with no internet needed, or invite friends to your table with a code, a link, or a QR code. Learn the game as you play, with no accounts, no ads, and no in-app purchases.

PLAY YOUR WAY
- Play the computers, even offline. Pick each computer player by name. After your first game, Same Opponents on Home brings back the same three for the next one.
- Start a private table for friends and share the code, a link, or a QR code. SharePlay in Messages works too.
- Play with Anyone: Quick Play seats you at a public table, and computers fill any empty seat after a short wait.
- Pass & Play lets two people share one device, with computers in the other two seats. Or play Nearby with people in the same room.
- Ask Siri to "Deal me in with Pinochle," or touch and hold the app icon for New Game vs. the Computers.

LEARN AS YOU GO
- Learn to Play is a guided first game against the computers, with a short lesson at each new step.
- The Coach, which you can turn on or off, suggests a bid, trump suit, or card on your turn. Tap its tip to see why.
- When melds are shown, tap any combination to read what it is in plain words. The Meld Chart shows what every meld is worth under your table's rules.

THE DETAILS
- Three rule sets: Parlor Rules (the default), Hoyle/Pagat Rules, and Tournament Rules, chosen by whoever hosts a table.
- Computers with their own names and comments. Choose how boldly they bid and how well they play.
- Share a Hand makes a picture of your cards and your meld to share wherever you like, with no names or table codes in it.
- Friends and invitations. On iOS 18 or later, a Lock Screen view shows whose turn it is, so your game finds you.
- Game Center leaderboards and achievements, if you like.
- Your settings, stats, and your game against the computers sync through your own iCloud, so you can continue on your other iPhone or iPad.

EASY ON THE EYES
Big, clear cards in three styles (Classic, Alternate, and Large Print, which puts a very large rank and suit on every card), with an optional four-color suit setting that works with all of them, a bolder club that is easy to tell from a spade, and text that follows your iPhone's Text Size setting. An Easy View switch makes cards and text bigger still. Tap the cards on Home, or shake your phone, and they scatter and come back with a new hand.

PRIVATE BY DESIGN
No accounts. No ads. No tracking. Table chat is filtered, and any message from another player can be reported or muted, and at online tables the player can be blocked. Public tables are for players 18 and over, and the app checks the age range your Apple account shares. If your Apple account says you are under 13, typed chat is turned off and only quick phrases work. Delete My Data, in Profile, removes your friends profile, blocks, feedback, and crash reports from our server. The privacy policy lists the few records kept to protect other players.
