Re: "FRC SCOUT" is OUT

For which events has scouting data been entered? (pit, or match)

Re: "FRC SCOUT" is OUT

After using this app at Crossroads extensively, I only have one feature request. It would be nice to be able to edit pit scouting data, rather than have to re-enter all fields in case of a scouting error.

Other than that, flawless app. Thank you!

To edit Pit Scouted data, just enter the team number you wish to edit on the Record page. The data you have entered for that team already will fill in and you can make the changes you need to. After that, just tap "save" and overwrite the previously saved data

Re: "FRC SCOUT" is OUT

total confusion here now. installed app on an ipad. apparently app is an input device only. scouted phantom match after some confusion cleared a bit. How would that information get to a place where it can be seen?

On html side login at frcscout.com will not allow location crossroads. only the first 5 o f the valid locations are listed. wpi not there either. tried crossroads after seeing that someone had used frc scout extensively there.

I'm not doing well in the info-age. I hope the kids can grok this mess as I will not be able to represent it at all well to them.

I'm going to do my best to understand what you've typed...

The app is NOT input only. You can easily view every ounce of recorded data that you record on the page labeled "Data" with a 3 data stack icon as the page icon (at the bottom of the screen of the app).

On the Data page, you can view every detail of individual recorded teams by tapping the "Single Team" button. Regional specific data (like rankings, alliance selection, and the Next Match view) are all available by tapping the "Within Regional" button. Again, this is all accessed on the Data page.

If you want to record fake data to test the app out, you can easily erase it by going to the "More" page (the three circles icon on the bottom) and tapping the "Delete Local Database" button.

As for your comment on frcscout.com, I have absolutely NO connection with the frcscout.com. I am sorry for your bad experiences with that website, but that has nothing to do with my app. I really have nothing available for users on the web as of right now, it's only on the iPads.

I believe the most success from using this app (and the feature that puts it above the rest) is the bluetooth sharing capabilities. Simply go to the More page (again, on the bottom of the app) and then turn on the "Host" switch on the top left and have another iPad with the app open on that page nearby. Make sure both iPads have bluetooth turned on, and the Host iPad should see the other iPad. Simply select that iPad's name on the Host iPad's screen, then you can connect from there. After that, just tap send on the page to send any data from one connected iPad to another.

I'm sorry for your confusion. I wish the best for you and your team and I will continue to be following this thread closely if you happen to have any other questions.

Re: "FRC SCOUT" is OUT

Hi. We are at the Orlando Regional and are having trouble downloading the qualification schedules to the ipads. The schedules were posted about 3 1/2 hours ago on FIRST and Blue Alliance but we aren't receiving them on your app. Do you think they will be available soon?

Thanks for your help!

Check tomorrow morning. Sorry for the delay. I'll talk to my mentor to see if we can get it to refresh more often. It'll update in approximately 35 minutes, if I'm not mistaken.

Re: "FRC SCOUT" is OUT

Thanks! We were able to download the schedules this morning with no problem!

We used your app yesterday for pit scouting and it worked well. One suggestion for the future might be to be able to download the team list with name and number.

Thanks again!

Not a bad idea! Where do you think a good place for that list would be on the app? I could easily put the download button on the More page, but where would it be convenient for the user to view the team list in the app?

Re: "FRC SCOUT" is OUT

Thank you so much for developing this app, it made scouting and strategy so effective and streamlined this competition. Do you suppose however that you could add a second spot for a picture, for a second angle of the robot or the team uniform? Thanks again for creating this app.

I can't put it in this year's app, but I'll definitely consider it for next year. I cannot change what is being saved in local storage without requiring a reinstall of the app (which would also consequently delete any scouting data).

Thank you for using the app and I'm glad it's helped you guys out a lot!

By the way, I showed the app off to Woodie Flowers this weekend at KC and he was quite impressed! He even told me he'd download it himself!

Also, please check out the Facebook page, Twitter account, and blog!

Re: "FRC SCOUT" is OUT

The FRC Scout Manual is officially published! Andrew from team 2232 stepped up in a big way and made this amazing iBook! HUGE shoutout to him and all the hard work that he's obviously put into this. It explains everything about the app and even has some troubleshooting tips as well! Please do check it out because it'll clear up a lot of questions. Here's the link!

I'm assuming you're referring to the match schedule not coming in. If that's the case you would not really be able to see immediate results after you tap the "Download Match Schedules" on the More tab. There will be a little green box that pops up underneath the button that says the download of the match schedules was complete. The match schedules really get used on the Scoring tab once you select the correct regional, scouting position, and match number. The team numbers should then fill in as you scout.

The data comes straight from the FIRST website and is refreshed every 3 hours. Also keep in mind the final match schedules are typically not posted until the evening of practice matches or the morning of the first qualification matches.

Re: "FRC SCOUT" is OUT

As of this morning (with yesterday's downloads included), FRC Scout now has 932 downloads!! I don't know about you guys, but I think it's possible to get those other 68 downloads by the end of Saturday. Let's break 1000!!

Secondly, I wouldn't advise uninstalling the app after competition is done because I will be continuing development and I'd like to count on several of you guys to help me beta test for next year. I've got a lot of big plans for this app and I look forward to all of your input. Also, I will be making my GitHub repo public in the next few weeks to open up issue requesting and code critiquing as well as learning opportunities for those of you curious about Objective C.

Above all, spread the word about this app!! The more downloads, the better it'll be, I promise! I wanted this to be my senior legacy and it has developed into everything I could've hoped it could be and more, and it's all because of you guys! Thank you and keep up the great scouting!!
