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

Ratings and Reviews
Excellent application
I have used all flavors of Baduk Cap and I have to admit that it works great. During tournaments it is enough to take a photo of a final position and the arbiter has the score in case that players mess it up during counting. It does not matter if prisoners are “lost”.
It is possible to capture development of the game using iPad with a stand (watch for battery life!), which is great if there are not enough people to scribe the moves.
Capturing any board position, especially corner situations like tsumego problems from old books works well, too, which is nice feature of the free version.
In case you are the organizer of a big go tournament, the subscription is worth every cent: just get photos of each for all position and disputes will be easy to solve.
It seems that board recognition is improving with time. Keep going!
