Lovat Collection vs Caster's Tool

Lovat Collection makes it easy to scout FIRST Robotics Competition matches with a contextualized game screen, haptics, and an intuitive layout. It supports tournaments without an internet connection by storing data locally and allowing users to upload at any time. The app features a quick onboarding process using a team code that you will receive from your scouting lead. Once connected, scouters can see all of the matches that their scouting lead has assigned to them using Lovat Dashboard. If needed, scouters can also enter the match information on their own. All settings in the app are easy to understand and can be changed whenever necessary.
