This is an app specially created for FTC Teams in need of an organized scouting and scoring method. All of your scouting and scoring data is held in a database, which will never be lost through the season. This app is designed for collaboration. Every action you make will sync with others on your team, meaning that you and any number of team members can be scouting and scoring at the same time, and everything will be stored on our database. It is all accessible for you and your team. This app, as of now, includes joining a team (in the app to separate data and share it between people from your team), a very easy, elegant scouting and scoring method for competitions, as well as a team summary option to show the teams that had the most average points and to summarize how they made these points in matches. The team summary is built to help with alliance picks before elimination rounds. Please leave a review and we are always happy to improve the app. Feel free to shoot us an email at ftc6547@gmail.com with any questions & suggestions.
