OmnirelioA badminton scoreboard you run with a remote
Put the phone by the net post where both sides can see it, and score every rally from the umpire's chair or the bench. One press on a small Bluetooth remote, and the point is up.

How a game goes
-
Score each rally
A press adds a point to its player. Game point and match point show up by themselves.
-
Confirm the game
When a game is won, the board asks first; one more press confirms, Undo takes the point back.
-
Change ends
The sides swap, the game's score is kept, and the break counts down to the next game.
Badminton questions
Can I keep score while I play?
Yes. A ring remote on a finger, or a selfie button in your pocket, adds a point without stopping the game. See which remote to get.
Does it work for doubles?
Yes: name each side what you like, such as "Ana / Ben". The score works the same way.
Can I see how long the match took?
Turn on Show match time: it starts at the first point, and each game's time is kept with its score.
