Hong Kong Mahjong Buddy
Hong Kong waiting tiles
Free · Designed for iPad. Not verified for macOS.
Photograph your Hong Kong mahjong hand to see waiting tiles. Fix any misread tiles and the waits update immediately.
Photograph your Hong Kong mahjong hand and see which tiles you are waiting on.
Lay the tiles face-up, take a photo, and Mahjong Buddy reads the hand and lists waiting tiles for a standard Hong Kong shape: four sets plus a pair. If a tile is misread, tap to correct it. Waits update immediately.
What it does
• Reads bamboo, characters, dots, winds, and dragons from a photo
• Shows ready-hand waits (edge, middle, dual, and pair waits)
• Lists every waiting tile when the hand has more than one wait
• Checks a 14-tile hand for already won or not winning
• Lets you edit the hand after the photo
Tips for a clear photo
• One row or a tight grid, faces up
• Even lighting; avoid glare
• Fill the frame; keep extra tiles out of view
Not included yet
• Special hands (thirteen orphans, seven pairs)
• Scoring or minimum fan
• Exposed melds or kong
• Wall or discard tracking
Photos of your tiles are sent only to identify the hand. They are not sold or used for ads.
