Pongly - Table Tennis ELO
Singles League with ELO Rating
Free · In‑App Purchases · Designed for iPad. Not verified for macOS.
Run a singles table tennis league in 3 taps. ELO rating updates per match, with a progress chart. Pro unlocks tournaments up to 200 players, split into leagues. Offline.
■ Tired of running tournaments on paper or spreadsheets?
Pongly turns your phone into a singles table tennis league manager — with a built-in personal rating tracker. Add players, pick a format, and start. It really is just three taps.
■ Personal ELO rating, built in
Every match you log automatically updates each player's ELO rating.
• Beat a stronger player and your rating jumps; lose to a weaker one and it drops — a fair, math-based system.
• Set-count differential (3-0 / 3-1 / 3-2) adjusts the swing, so blowouts and close games are weighted differently.
• A progress chart on each player's profile shows their rating over time.
• Pick your starting rating from 5 levels (beginner to competitor, default intermediate). The first 10 matches adjust quickly to fit your real strength.
■ What you can do (all plans)
