Description

Baduk Cap lets you capture positions on your wooden Go board and transfer them easily to the SGF file format with its built-in image recognition.
Determine the winner and exact score of your game with the scoring function (this feature is an in-app purchase).
As Baduk Cap supports corners of arbitrary size and recognizes them automatically, you can capture problems from books and export them to apps like EasyGo, that offer the spaced repetition system as a study tool.
Live capture of your game, while it is being played, is also possible with automatic move recognition, automatic photos or photos triggered with a bluetooth camera remote. (This feature is an in-app purchase.) Focus fully on the game, instead of spending time and concentration with recording it manually.
Include game information like player names, ranks, captured stones, … and copy the SGF file to the clipboard, send it as an email, save it to Dropbox or export it to apps like EasyGo or SmartGo Kifu.
Baduk Cap supports board sizes 9 x 9, 13 x 13, 19 x 19 and is optimized for iPhone and iPad.

The following one-year subscriptions are available (Baduk Cap Pro):
- Scoring: Determine the winner and exact result of the game (tap the result for an explanation of how it was calculated)
- Game recording: Live capture your game with automatic move recognition, automatic photos and photos triggered with a bluetooth camera remote. Broadcast to Mastodon is also possible. (Includes all features of the Scoring subscription)
These subscriptions do not renew automatically. After one year, if you want to continue using the unlocked features, you need to manually resubscribe.

You can also choose the 'Lifetime Pro' subscription which is paid once and then provides all features of the app and never expires.

Each of the Baduk Cap Pro subscriptions also unlocks these features:
- Siri shortcuts: Take a picture of your Go board with a voice command of your choice
- Dark mode
- Alternate app icons

Great

It’s great for close games and scoring when learning how to play.
The only way it could be better is if the scoring was included in purchase price but to be fair the price is negligible.

Amazing tool

This works incredibly well. And it's great for beginning players as it's hard to identify each player's territories consistently at first.

This app makes it easy to identify stones that are dead as they stand, and makes scoring a breeze.

Everything appears to be well thought out and thoroughly tested. Amazing job!

Works well with 9x9 beginner boards too!

It does require knowledge of the game to make sense of everything. The authors might create mini tutorial based on the game and the intricacies of scoring. For instance, I didn't fully notice or appreciate at first that each point with an opponent's stone on it that is dead as it stands is worth 2 (one point for the area of territory that is rightfully yours and the other point for the stone itself).

In app purchase required

Need to pay for territory counting and for live capture. 8$ more...

I am a bit disappointed...

Based on your feedback, I have reworked my screenshots. It should now be much more obvious which features are part of an additional in-app purchase.
