Re: 2016 Scouting Ideas/Apps

IDK about the apps, but last year I was lead scout in my team, and we tried to use app instead of papers, it was first year we did it, so I allowed each student to choose what he likes better, only 1 out of 12 studnets chose the app over the paper.
I think that it is much more comfortable to use papers, because you can use them however you want, and not according to the rules of a specific app, another reason is the battery, you need your phone battery to communicate with your team, you don't want your battery to reach 0% because you used the app, and if it reaches 0%, how will you continue using the app? you will loose a lot of scouting data.
