From "who's in?" to "we're square" — the whole night, tracked.

Tap Open a game on the home screen. Give it a name (or keep the auto-generated one — "Sat 12 Jul — Please no pocket jacks" is a vibe), pick your currency, and you're live.
Currency isn't just €/$/£. Type "chips", "big blinds", even "BTC" — potcount tracks in whatever unit your table thinks in and does the math in that unit.
Set a default buy-in when you open the game. It pre-fills the amount every time someone sits down, so adding a player is one tap instead of three.
Every game gets a short 4-digit code and a share link (and a QR code for the person across the table). Send it in the group chat.
Here's the good part: everyone opens the same game on their own phone and adds their own buy-ins. No single scorekeeper sweating over everyone's chips. Anyone with the code can add players, log buy-ins and help keep it straight — it's collaborative by design.
Hit Lock table and new people can't self-join by code anymore — you (the host) add players yourself. Handy once the table's set and you don't want a random code-holder wandering in.
Someone rebuys after running into quad kings? Tap their name, add a top-up. Every buy-in and top-up stacks up under each player, and the live pot total at the top always shows how much is on the table.
Made a typo? Every entry is editable, and there's a full activity log of who changed what — so a fat-fingered €500 buy-in is a two-tap fix, not a 20-minute argument.
When the cards are in the air for the last time, each player enters their final chip count — what they're walking away with. potcount shows a live settlement preview as the stacks come in, so you can spot a miscount before it matters.
That's it — potcount now knows exactly who's up, who's down, and the shortest path to square everyone up. Which is the next guide →
No app at all — it runs in the browser. The host shares a code or link and everyone taps in. No download, no signup required to play.
potcount shows the discrepancy live as final stacks come in, so you can find the miscount before locking in. It never forces a broken settlement.
Yes. Pick "chips" (or any unit) when you open the game and everything is tracked in chips; you can settle the cash value later.
