Each section reads in under a minute. Start at the top or jump to the bit you need.
Logginhood is free scoring for every archer, with your club's sessions, records and games built around it. The app lives at app.logginhood.com; the website at logginhood.com holds the longer views.
You are ready to shoot. Everything else in this guide you can find when you want it.
The My bow tab, My bows once you have more than one, holds one setup per bow you shoot: riser and limbs, sight, button, clicker, tab, string, stabilisers and the rest. Fill in what you know; nothing is required. The one marked Active is the bow the app assumes you are shooting.
Marks are the useful part. Under a Recurve or Compound setup you keep sight marks by distance, a number and an extension. Under a Barebow, Longbow or Flatbow setup you keep crawl marks: finger position, anchor and how many tabs. Whatever you record here shows at the top of every score sheet for that distance so you never have to look them up.
Arrows live on the Settings tab as sets so a round can say which arrows you shot it with.
Start a round. Pick the round, the bow, Practice or Competition and where you are. The round list shows the rounds your club counts first. A round shot in threes or sixes can be scored either way; the saved round is the same. The sheet remembers your last choices.
The sheet. Tap the arrow values, X down to M and Del to take one back. Tap any cell to correct it later. The end total, running total, dozens and golds keep themselves. Along the bottom:
Results. When the last arrow is in, Results shows the score, hits and golds, the classification the round earns and your handicap. Add a note if you want one, then Save round. It is yours in History and, if you are in a club, on the club's Scores page. Post my score makes a picture to share.
A round is never lost: close the app mid round and it is waiting on the Score sheet tab when you come back.
A round kept on paper. On Start a round, tap Paper beside Indoor and Outdoor. The first time it asks how you want paper to go in: just the totals (score, hits and golds off the bottom of the sheet) or every end, typed in arrow by arrow. It opens that way from then on and Settings changes it. When the photo button shows, a photo of the sheet fills the boxes for you to check before you save. Set the date you shot it. A paper round counts for history, handicap, classification and club records, and carries no timer, weather or club night games.
The Club tab is your club in your pocket: Sessions, Chat and Documents.
Book on. Next sessions are listed with the places left. Tap Book and you are on. Booking matters for more than the register: once you are booked, the ends you score push to the session live, which is what lets you be dealt into the games and lets the club see who shot. If you turn up unbooked, book on the spot before you start.
On the night. Under your booking you can say On my way or Running late or Can't make it if plans change. The session chat is one tap away. Who's coming shows the names, with a key beside anyone who holds one.
Bring someone. Invite a guest sends a link; your guest books in as your guest, not as a member and shoots under the club's guest arrangements.
Chat is the club's own conversation, no phone numbers shared. Documents holds what the club has put out for members: the constitution, the range rules, the newsletter.
You can book yourself on any session. To book someone else on, link them to your account once. There are three kinds of person and each is the same shape: one of you makes a code, the other scans it signed in, and from then on a Book button for them sits under every session, in the app and on the website calendar.
Linking never shares phone numbers or emails, and a child's details stay inside the club's safeguarding rules. If someone's Book button is missing, check they are linked under My family and friends on Settings.
A game is something to play on a club night on top of the round you are already shooting. Everyone scores as normal; the game reads the ends as they land. A game never writes a score so your round stays your round.
Start one from the session on the Club tab: pick the mode, tick who is in, choose handicap on or off. With handicap on, every end is judged against each archer's par, the end their handicap predicts so a beginner and a county archer can play each other straight.
It finishes itself. When the last score a game needs is in, it closes and the result goes on the club's Games page and the hall board. The person who made it can close it early. Tap How it was scored on any game to see the working, end by end, with each archer's round, handicap and par and what every end decided.
A game only counts rounds started after it was made so start the game before you start shooting or soon after.
History is every round you have saved, newest first. Season chips and bow chips sit at the top and Filters narrows by round, competition or practice, plotted rounds, arrow set or dates. Tap a round to see the full sheet, replay it arrow by arrow or lay it over your other rounds on the target history.
Charts turns the same rounds into pictures: score, percentage and handicap over time, the trend line, zones hit, averages, golds. Untick a bow at the top and it leaves every chart.
Deleting. Delete a round from its page and it moves to Recently deleted on the website, where it can be restored. A badge it earned goes with it and comes back if it does. Delete for good, on the website, removes it from the bin as well.
The website's History and Progress pages show the same rounds on a bigger screen, with the classification and handicap views in full.
Badges are under the medal tab: the Archery GB classification you hold, the 252 scheme by distance and the club's own award schemes. Most are granted the moment a saved round earns them. Where a club checks claims by hand, the badge shows as awaiting until an officer confirms it.
The 252. Shoot a 252 round and the badge comes with the score. Where your club has Automatic 252s on, the first three dozen at a distance of an ordinary imperial round earn it too, one per distance that has three dozen in the round.
Competitions has every competition open to you: postal leagues to enter and shoot in your own time and in person competitions to sign up for, with scoring on the day done on your own phone and the results and podium live as the last arrows go in.

What's new at the foot of every page lists every change as it ships.
Settings, in the app, is where the app bends to you: text size, light or dark, the shape of the cells on the sheet, the end timer, the sparkle on a good end and, at the foot of the tab, the splash screen. Nothing there changes a score.
My family and friends, on the Settings tab, is where the people you book for live: a child by parental consent, your partner or a friend by a code one of you scans. Booking for other people above has the steps.
Your account is yours. Your scores belong to you; your club keeps its records of the rounds you shot for it. If you leave the club, your account and your history stay with you. If you leave Logginhood, Delete my account removes you and your personal data; the club keeps only the scores on its own records, with your name left on them as on any club record.
This guide lives under Help in the app and at logginhood.com/guide. A small question mark on the busier screens opens the matching section.
