REMOTE DARTS

Play darts online
with friends, on video

Each of you throws at your own dartboard. You watch each other's board on live video, and TallyPally keeps one shared scoreboard on both phones. Free, no adverts.

Or play in your browser →

Both players need a free account. Works on iPhone, Android and in the browser.

While your opponent throws you watch their board on video; on your turn you enter your score as usual. Board picture is illustrative.

How a remote match works

You don't need to be in the same club, or even in the same country.

  1. 1

    Send a challenge

    Pick a club mate from the list, or create an invite link and share it in WhatsApp, Messages or email. The link works for 24 hours.

  2. 2

    Meet in the lobby

    You both see whether the other is connected and has a camera on. Choose who throws first or let the app draw it. The match starts when you have both tapped "I'm ready".

  3. 3

    Point a camera at your board

    Use the phone you score on, or pair a second phone as the board camera: open tallypally.app/cam on it and type the code, or scan the QR code. No camera? Play with scores only.

  4. 4

    Throw and enter your score

    On your turn you enter your score as usual. On your opponent's turn you watch their board, and their score appears on your phone as soon as they enter it.

What you get

VIDEO

Live video of both boards

See your opponent's board and every dart that lands. Switch on the microphone and you can talk while you play.

INVITE

Anyone, anywhere

Challenge a club member, or send a link to any friend with a free TallyPally account: another club, another town, another country.

X01

301, 501 or 701

First to 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 or 7 legs, with double out or single out.

RANKED

Ranked or practice

Members of the same club can play ranked matches that move their ELO rating. Matches with friends from other clubs are practice.

CALLER

A caller for both of you

Switch on the caller and every visit is announced out loud in English, your opponent's scores too.

HISTORY

Saved like any match

Every remote match goes into your match history, so you can look back at who won and how.

What you need

Nothing special. Most players already have all of it.

  • A dartboard each, at the right height and with the oche at the right distance, so it's a fair match.
  • A phone, tablet or computer to keep score.
  • A camera that sees your board: the phone you score on, a spare old phone, or a webcam if you score on a computer.
  • A free TallyPally account for both players.
  • An internet connection. Wi-Fi is best for video.

Good to know

  • Remote play is for 301, 501 and 701. Remote cricket isn't available yet.
  • Ranked remote matches are only between members of the same club.
  • Each player enters their own score. The camera is for watching; it doesn't score the darts automatically.
  • Without a camera you still see each other's scores live.

Questions people ask

Can I play darts online with a friend for free?

Yes. TallyPally is free, with no adverts and no paid tier. Both players need a free account.

Do I need a webcam?

No. A phone camera is enough, and a second phone can film the board while you score on the first. You can also play with scores only, without any camera.

How do I invite a friend who isn't in my club?

Create an invite link on the remote match screen and send it in WhatsApp, Messages or email. Anyone with a TallyPally account can join, from any club. The link works for 24 hours.

Which games can we play remotely?

301, 501 and 701, first to the number of legs you choose. Cricket can't be played remotely yet.

Does a remote match count towards my ranking?

Yes, if you are both members of the same club and choose a ranked match. Other remote matches are practice and don't change your ELO.

How does my opponent see my score?

You enter your score on your own phone and it appears on your opponent's phone straight away. If the caller is on, it is also announced out loud.
