Thanks for using ThreadScore! If you have a question, found a bug, or have an idea to make the app better, we'd love to hear from you.
Frequently asked questions
How do I award points?
Open ThreadScore from the app drawer in Messages, then either tap a player and a points button, or type a command like #100 points to Evan.
Why can't I give points to someone?
You can only award points to people who are actually in that group chat, and who have set a nickname. Set nicknames in the Name tab first.
Do my points save?
Yes. Your scores and nicknames are stored on your device for each conversation. To share updates with the group, tap the send button after awarding points.
How do I crown a champion?
Tap “End Season” on the Race tab. This crowns the current leader, records them in the Hall of Champions, and resets everyone to zero for the next season.
