Mixed Wild Card Canasta Point Value Now CUSTOMIZABLE
Canasta Scorepad is the perfect companion app for anyone who loves playing the physical version of Canasta. It streamlines the scoring process by automatically calculating point totals, managing base scores, and tracking red threes. With support for multiple players and customizable rule settings, it ensures your game nights remain focused on the strategy rather than the math.

Our Expert Score
If you're a serious Canasta player, this app is an essential utility. It’s not a game of Canasta itself, but a dedicated digital scorepad that removes the friction of manual math. For those who play with physical cards, the 'Canasta Scorepad' is a lifesaver, especially when dealing with the complex point totals that come with red threes and varied meld requirements.
The interface is minimalist and utilitarian, which is exactly what you want when you're in the middle of a high-stakes round. It handles multiple players or teams and automatically calculates the minimum meld based on your current score. While it’s a niche tool, its execution is flawless for its intended purpose, serving as a perfect companion for family game nights.
Features
Automatic minimum meld calculation
Support for 2 to 4 players or teams
Match history and statistics tracking
Customizable rules for different Canasta variants
Tips & Walkthrough
Enter the names of the players or teams. Select the target score (usually 5,000) and the app will automatically notify you when the minimum meld requirement changes.
Gameplays
At the end of each round, simply input the base points and individual card counts. The app features a 'Quick Math' toggle to speed up the entry of common card values.

Solving my tallying issue!
Wed Aug 12 2020 TOMMYVEEEE.So glad I found this app - it’s truly improving my whole gaming experience. I had to manually tabulate, and not only was it too much of a mental strain, my scores were sometimes inaccurate!! Thanks to this app the whole playing experience has been improved and I can now focus on winning!!
Love this app
Sun Aug 20 2023 CincyDaveThe app is great. But it definitely was designed with the American Canasta rules. I actually never even knew about this rule set. We play classic canasta. Most of your customizations will allow it to work for classic. But the biggest thing your app needs is the ability to modify the red three points. And perhaps a way to hide the Special Hand scoring. But good job on the app design.
Very Useful!
Wed Jan 27 2021 stikchikLooks to be a handy/easy way to keep canasta scores. Will start using when playing in-person games again after pandemic social distancing.
Very intuitive and easy to use!
Wed Aug 12 2020 BUTTYMUSICThis app saves time and is super easy to use! It even has a way to adjust the scoring scale! Definitely recommend!!!
Not enough flexibility
Fri Oct 08 2021 Bud1736We play with some custom rules. For example the value of threes. The score pad does not allow for customizing scoring of threes. This makes it about useless if we want to use our own scoring rules.
