April 1, 2011: FRC Tracker 2011 version 1.5 is available on the App Store. This version adds a new Finals View that shows the state of the elimination matches. The Rank View can be sorted by team number so it's easy to see how a given team is doing.

March 25, 2011: FRC Tracker 2011 version 1.4.2 is available on the App Store. Match detail now shows team photos, viewing matches will auto scroll to the most recently reported match, a new button in Tools lets you download all shared robot photos. Also, many fixes and minor enhancements.

March 15, 2011: FRC Tracker 2011 version 1.4.1 is available on the App Store. This update has a few bug fixes and enhancements, mostly related to the Photo Share service.

March 9, 2011: FRC Tracker 2011 version 1.4 is available on the App Store. This version adds the new FRC Tracker Photo Sharing service that allows teams to share robot photos to aid teams in scouting. The Twitter crash is fixed.

March 2, 2011: FRC Tracker 2011 version 1.3.8 is available on the App Store. I had to be submitted a week before the first regional, so it was impossible to fully test it. Although the Twitter code was unchanged from last year, running on the newer hardware and system causes a crash at the end of each Twitter update. A new version was submitted with a fix right away, but it will take another week for it to be available.
