Problem

Managing and tracking badminton scores in real-time can be challenging, especially in casual and competitive settings, where manual scorekeeping can lead to errors, disputes, and inefficiencies. Traditional methods, such as paper-based tracking or relying on memory, are prone to mistakes.
Target Users: Identify who will use the app (players, referees, coaches, tournament organizers, spectators).
Use Cases: Examples of where the app would be used (casual games, tournaments, training sessions).

Solution

Develop a Badminton Scoring App that allows players, referees, and spectators to efficiently track scores, manage matches, and follow game progress in real time. The app should support different scoring formats, stats updation, history tracking, and seamless sharing of match results. A user-friendly interface with features like voice output, real-time updates, and multiplayer synchronization can enhance the experience, ensuring fair play and better match management.

MVP Features (Must-Have for Initial Launch)

Final MVP Feature List Breakdown with Justification

I've structured this into MVP features (must-have for v1) and Future Features (valuable but not essential for launch). I've also included monetization considerations where applicable.

1️⃣ Match Setup

Start match - Single or Doubles → Basic requirement for tracking matches.
Create players
Add a photo or color to each player → Helps differentiate players visually.
Set match configs:
Number of sets, points, interval time → Customization needed for different game formats.
Enable voice command → Essential for accessibility & hands-free scoring.

2️⃣ Gameplay (Live Score Tracking)

Player Mode (MVP mode) → See player/team names & scores with action buttons.
See updated score [set-wise]
Highlight player who is serving (singles or doubles) → Helps track the flow of the game.
Button to add a point to a player/team
Undo button → Critical for correcting mistakes.
Voice command reads the score aloud when updated → Useful for umpires & players.
Interval popup with option to extend or continue → Allows timeouts to be managed.

3️⃣ Match Completion

Toast screen to declare winner → Quick, clear match completion status.
Generate match statistics → Essential for post-game insights.
Share statistics via screenshot/image → Lightweight sharing mechanism.

4️⃣ Additional Functional MVP Features

Prevent sleep mode (app always running during match) → Ensures uninterrupted scoring.
⁠

🚀 Future Features (Not MVP for v1, but valuable later)

1️⃣ Enhanced Game Modes

Court Mode (See court & select sides) → Not essential for scoring but useful for visuals.

2️⃣ Advanced Gameplay Features

Track additional player statistics (e.g., missed serves/errors) →
Future Consideration: What to track? → Missed serves, faults, or forced/unforced errors?
Monetization Idea: Advanced analytics could be part of a premium version.

3️⃣ Social & Multiplayer Features

Live match feature (real-time updates for multiple users) → Adds value but complex.
Leaderboards & Tournament Mode → Future expansion idea for clubs/events.

4️⃣ Customization & Personalization

Customize courts (themes/colors/numbering) → Nice-to-have but not core for launch.

❓ Should Login/Signup Be MVP?

(Phone number + OTP - Expensive to implement?)

Pros of Including Login (MVP)

Saves match history per user.
Enables multi-device access.
Allows monetization via user accounts.

Cons (Why It Might Not Be MVP)

Expensive OTP verification (Requires backend infrastructure).
Many casual users might just want quick scoring without sign-up friction.
Alternative:
Allow match scoring without login but require signup to save match history & stats.
Add email-based login instead of OTP for a lower-cost alternative.
