I am currently useing this APP at the CT regional and it is great, it is nice to be able to keep track of scores without haveing to go check the info on the screen in the pits.

THANKS!

Fantastic, love the app!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Re: Android App - FRC Spyder
 

Defiantly the best Android app on the market.

Re: Android App - FRC Spyder
 

This app rocks! We have several people, myself included, that have Android and use this app religiously at competition.

It's also nice not having to huddle around the ranking monitor to find your rank or the rank of teams you're following.

Re: Android App - FRC Spyder
 

This app made getting a Moto Droid worthwhile. It gave instant updates for rankings immediately after each match at Troy. This weekend at MSC, however, I noticed that it took almost an hour between actual updates. This happened to myself, and my sister. Until about lunch today, it did not even register that any teams were attending. Yesterday, this was frustrating and today it was not much better. Was there an issue today? Is this just a fluke?
Other than that though, amazing.

Re: Android App - FRC Spyder
 

There was a problem between our server and the twitter feed that triggers updates as soon as the match is scored. Without the trigger from twitter, we only update every 10 minutes. I don't know why you would have seen an hour delay, the most should have been ~10 minutes. It's all fixed and from what I've seen this morning, updates seem to be in real time again.

This was really great to use at the Connecticut Regional today! Thanks for fixing the HTML character escaping bug too! :)

Re: Android App - FRC Spyder
 

FRC Spyder is a fantastic app. It runs smoothly and I've had no problems with it. A search function would be useful to help find teams, matches, and events faster. Thanks both the dev for the android version and iphone version of FRC apps. Every iphone and android user on 1676 has either spyder or tracker running on their device :)

Re: Android App - FRC Spyder
 

I posted v1.0.4 to the market; it adds a desktop widget that displays the results for all your favorite events. I also tied the automatic background updates into the widget which means they are only enabled when you have a widget on your desktop. You can still configure the frequency of updates in the settings screen and can disable automatic updates even if you are using the widget.

This is the last FRC Spyder update from me this year. Now back to scouting...

Re: Android App - FRC Spyder
 

This was way more than I expected. This should definitely last us until next year! Thank you for such a great app. :)

Mike,

Not sure if it'd be too much work, but any chance FRC Sypder might work at IRI?

Re: Android App - FRC Spyder
 

My guess the data feeds that the app needs are not there for IRI.

Re: Android App - FRC Spyder
 

Good idea Jon, I'll look into it.

Re: Android App - FRC Spyder
 

What is FRC Spyder's backend written in? I've been working on TBAv4 and have used some of Pat Fairbank's frclinks code as reference code, and thought it would be great to take a peek at how FRC Spyder works.

Thanks!

Re: Android App - FRC Spyder
 

Is there any chance this app will be updated, refined, improved etc. for 2011?

One suggestion/request: Could a "Offensive Power Ranking" algorithm be added? Maybe a "Defensive Power Ranking" as well? One that is run for each competition.
