Chart
Play the recording at 1x or 1.5x. Rally In, Rally Out, then who won it and how: a winner, a forced error, a missed third. Tape keeps the side-out score under the clock, so a wrong tap shows and gets fixed by tapping it.
Rally 21 of 66. CH hit a winner. 4-3-2.

Review
Rallies only, the dead time skipped. Draw on a frame, write a note, reply. On your phone your marks are red and your partner's are cyan; on theirs it's the other way round.
Send
A rally goes out as a clip with its note in the band. A filtered set goes out as a tape, up to ten minutes. The game's stats save as one image for the group chat.
