October 4, 2026

A big update that brings the app much closer to the web version. Live - Hide standings: a switch in Settings hides where you stand while you play. Per-game results, queues and alerts stay. - Who is playing with whom: in Match Play group events, a colored dot at the start of each row marks players still on a machine, and players in the same game share a color. - League nights get a "Games in play" fold, and event cut lines show right under the header. - Bracket events draw as a tree you can pinch, drag and zoom, with "find me". - Matchups for league nights that have them. - Friends who are playing show a green rail on the boards. - Tap a game name to open your notes for it. - Round alerts for group play get their own bell, and "Alert me from" now updates your alerts right away. neverdrains and Pinburgh - Big events now open on an overview of everything you are entered in, with your rank in each. - Tap a game for every score on it, or a queue spot to see who is in line. - Pinburgh sessions list their games, and finals open on the round in progress. - Your "I am" pick is remembered.
