Mahjong is an enjoyable game, played around the world. However, for beginners (and even more experienced players!), calculating the value of a hand can be confusing. On top of that, payments between players after the value of each hand is calculated can also be tricky.
Mahjong Helper aims to simplify the tasks of scoring and payments between games. It can also be used to keep a history of matches played, and to easily experiment with different methods of scoring.
Features:
* Multiple Matches
* Beautiful, easy-to-read tiles.
* Hand Scorer with intuitive tile/set-type selector (press, slide, and release to choose a tile)
* Supports European Classical, Hong Kong, Japanese Modern / EMF Riichi (with Dora tiles and Red Fives), and Chinese Official (MCR / Competition) scoring
* 4, 3, and 2 player scoring modes
* Send scores from Hand Scorer to Score Sheet, or enter scores manually.
* Score Sheet calculates payments between players, supports "Ready" declarations and counters in Japanese Mahjong.
* see how the score is calculated on the "Scoring" panel - great for those learning the game, or just to double-check!
* Supports seat rotation between rounds, or groups that prefer keeping the same positions throughout.
* Share matches across devices - other players can keep a record of the match & contribute to scoring from their own devices. Requires a data connection.
* Print score sheets to your AirPrint-enabled printer!
I hope you like it!

Mahjong Helper & Calculator Reviews
Trouble with marking who the person was that provided the discard tile!
I really like this app! It works well for what I am able to do with it. But I can’t seem to be able to assign the discard person in the hand score area! What am I doing wrong or not doing right!
Well worth the download!
I’ve been playing Mahjong for years, but calculating hand scores has always been my weak suit. This app takes that stress away. Highly recommended for any serious Mahjong players!
great app, absolutely worth the price.
I am a bit skeptical when it comes to apps that charge for things that are commonly free but this app does something a lot of online apps don’t do: it keeps score.
it is also very intuitive once you get the hang of it. but getting the hang of it can take some experimentation so please be warned.
The only issue I have is that it does not have an option to take into account double yakuman in riichi.
iPhone user, app doesn’t work for me
Downloaded the app and wasn’t able to input any tiles down to score.
Great App with a few errors
App works well and is easy and intuitive to use. There are a few errors in the HK score set, such as an all pung hand should be 3 fan.
Hope these are corrected in the future. I’ve been just adding flowers to “correct” it at this point.
Excellent For Riichi
This app is terrific for keeping score in Riichi Mahjong. I can understand being skeptical about paying for an app that does something as complicated and esoteric as scoring mahjong, but this app really nails it. The interface can be a little tricky, and you need to explore a bit to figure out exactly what to do, but otherwise it's perfect. You can enter what tiles were in your hand and it will be scored for you automatically. There's also a summary page that shows you the breakdown of how both the han and fu of your hand were calculated. And if that's not your thing, you can always just manually enter the amounts. The app is designed to track a whole Han-Chan and keeps track of everything from missed Riichi points to the current bonus round. There are also settings for some optional rules like forbidding open Tanyao. All in all, a really good app that covers everything, explains everything, and just works. Well worth a measly two bucks.
Missing features I wanted
The hand scorer doesn't recognize a lot of limit hands and won't allow nonstandard hands (all pairs, 13 orphans, etc) to be entered. Still a useful little app, though.
Awesome!
As a new Riichi player trying to get their head around the complicated scoring rules, this app is amazing and does exactly what I need in my games. The only reason I don't give five stars is some really annoying UI lag (between clicking a button and the app reacting is about a second delay)
In any case, thanks to the dev!
Update!
It was great at first but now I can't scroll down and can't choose the tiles for the winning hand plz update😢
Cool App... but
For the Japanese Scoring, there is no faint dora text in the concealed or exposed areas. Please fix this, as that really affects the score on many occasions.
*** I see how to do dora now... ug.. not that intuitive. You have to tap on the tile that is on the board. I like how that works, but it could be much more intuitively designed.
That said:
This is a great App... This will allow me to play and teach how to play Mahjong. Thanks. Well worth the $1.99 and then some. There really is an App for everything.
