Cue Support
Cue is the snooker scoreboard that keeps score the way the game is actually played. Tap the ball that went down; Cue does the rest.
Something not right, or something missing? Email hi@moonshot.ie and a person will answer.
Scoring a frame
Tap the ball that was potted. That is the whole scoring model. Only the ball that is actually on will respond: during the reds, a red lights up, then the colours, then a red again. After the last red the strip collapses to the colours in order and each one disappears as it goes down.
End Turn banks the break and passes play. Use it for a safety, or for a miss with nothing potted.
Undo is always on screen and steps back through everything, including fouls and the end of a frame, as far back as the first shot.
Fouls
Tap Foul and then the ball that was involved. Cue awards the right penalty, four to seven, to your opponent: nothing is ever deducted from the offender. The sheet also carries three switches:
- A red left the table takes it off the count.
- Free ball awarded lets the incoming player nominate any ball. In the reds phase it scores as a red and no red leaves the table; in the colours it scores as the ball on and the nominated ball is respotted.
- Miss called reveals the referee’s two options: play again from where the balls lie, or put the balls back and play again.
Points remaining and snookers required
The number under the break is everything still on the table for the player at it, counting the colour that is on. When the player behind can no longer catch up by clearing, Cue says how many snookers they need, assuming four-point snookers.
Ending a frame
Potting the final black ends it. To concede, press and hold the score panel of the player who is giving it up. If the frame is level when the black goes down, Cue takes you to the re-spotted black and asks who plays first.
Big score view
Rotate the phone or iPad to landscape during a live frame, or tap the expand icon, for a display-only scoreboard that reads from across the room on a propped-up device. Tap anywhere, or rotate back, to return to the scorer. Nothing about the frame changes either way.
Club nights
Club Night draws a knockout bracket or a round robin for three to thirty-two players, handles byes, and keeps the standings. Tap any tie that is ready to play and it opens the normal scorer; the result flows back into the bracket, the leaderboards and the head-to-heads.
Premium
The scorer and the rules engine are free forever, with guest players and your last five frames. Premium adds player profiles and career stats, head-to-head records, the highest break leaderboard, club tournaments, full history and frame timelines, share cards, the shot timer, handicaps, six and ten red frames, and the big score view.

Where your data lives
On your device, and nowhere else. There is no account and nothing is uploaded. Cue 1.0 does not sync between devices, so a frame scored on your phone stays on your phone. Settings › Erase all data clears everything in one step.
Rules
Cue follows the standard scoring rules of snooker. It is a scoreboard, not a referee, and it is not affiliated with any governing body, tour or organisation.
