I was referring to the fact that you altered the logo - you moved the "FRC" text in relation to the triangle-circle-square logo and removed the "FIRST Robotics Competition" text below it, as well as the (R). Team or not, they are clear that they do not want that done, as well as a few other minor details (sufficient space around the edge of the logo, not put inside a shape or border, etc).

Whether you should even be allowed to use the logo is a separate topic. It's not clear to me based on FIRST's usage policy, but it doesn't seem right using it for your planned paid version. I would certainly get official clarification before using it, as you now say you are.

It is for these reasons that my own app in the App Store uses a custom icon. I would have preferred FIRST's official logo to mine as it is definitely better looking, but I didn't want to use it improperly or against their wishes so it was easier to just avoid it.
