Intermittent scores
Please ensure your Smartboard® has enough battery power. When connected this can be checked with the Scorebuddy® App at the bottom of the setting screen. Failure to connect may result from zero battery power. Most issues occurring with random scores and Smartboard® not connecting to the App are because the batteries are low and need replacing.
General rules
