Re: Have your Say! Opinion sought on the FRC Game Manual Website and Apps

Overall great APP, add my 2 items above, it becomes outstanding. IMHO.
Agreed. It was a good use of my time.

One other thing I asked for is an offline mode. If there was one, my Itouch and Android tablet couldn't use it. I would also like the return of the all inclusive .pdf. It made desktop searching offline so much easier.

The best part about the app was the auto-update feature. Although with the new notification features in iOS 5, I would like to have notifications whenever a rule gets updated.

But the bottom line is great job, and I hope this returns next year!

Re: Have your Say! Opinion sought on the FRC Game Manual Website and Apps

I agree with the link between the manual and the Q&A. Directly synching the two by rule would be awesome, so you can read the rule, see posted questions, and see answers (where given) all at the same place.

Re: Have your Say! Opinion sought on the FRC Game Manual Website and Apps

I appreciated having everything available off-line. With no wifi at the event, and having a Canadian cell phone plan, but volunteering at an American regional, data costs are... unreasonable...

Linking Q&A to their relevant rule, so you don't have to go searching for them would be great.
