Scales

A scale defines the card values available during a session. You can use one of the built-in scales or define your own.

Built-in scales

• Fibonacci (0, 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13, 21, 43, 55, 89, ?)
• Modified Fibonacci (0, 0.5, 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13, 20, 40, 100, ?)
• T-Shirt Sizes (XS, S, M, L, XL, ?)

The available deck depends on the scale you select when starting a session.

Use a custom scale (guest)

When creating a free session:

1. Select Custom in the Start Planning Poker Session dialog.
2. Enter comma-separated values in Custom values (for example: ”0, 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, ?”).
3. Click Start Session.

Custom scales created by guests are not saved for future sessions.

Manage organization scales (signed-in)

Signed-in users can manage reusable scales for their organization.

1. Open Planning poker in the app and go to Scales.
2. Click New scale.
3. Provide a Name and Values.
   • Enter values separated by commas, or press Enter after each value to add it as a token.
4. Click Save.

You can edit, rename, or delete any scale. The three defaults (Fibonacci, Modified Fibonacci, T-Shirt Sizes) can be kept, renamed, or removed. When starting a session as a signed-in user, you choose from your organization's scales.

Changing scales

• You cannot change the scale after a session starts. To use a different scale, start a new session.
