Understanding the Two-Phone Workflow #
Clubsmaster’s two-phone workflow is what sets us apart from other sports recording solutions. This system allows you to record or live stream matches with professional score overlays using only two Android devices.
How It Works #
Phone A — Scorer App #
- Managed by the official scorer or coach
- Tracks all match events (goals, points, wickets, fouls, sets)
- Updates scores, timers, and events in real time
- Sends live updates to Phone B
Phone B — Camera App #
- Used to record or live stream the match
- Displays the live scoreboard overlay instantly
- Saves the final video automatically
- Works offline for recording and online for live streaming
