v8.3.0

QR device sign-in works with any camera app, the location-sharing icon in race mode now shows three status states, penalty and incident banners auto-clear after a few seconds, and the in-app chat and race mode have several further refinements.

Devices

  • QR sign-in codes generate as scannable links any camera app can open, the signing-in device sees a loading animation and confirmation, and the approval now completes correctly regardless of how the screen is reached.
  • Technical delegates: The option to approve a device sign-in from the race mode drawer is now visible to delegates who manage the event, not just technical officials.
  • The location-sharing icon in race mode now shows three states: filled pin (actively sharing), a hand-off icon (a dedicated device holds the lock), or an amber off-pin (eligible but not sharing). A dedicated-device handoff also shows a specific message instead of a generic stopped notice.

Officiating

  • After submitting a penalty or incident in race mode, a banner appears with a View shortcut to jump directly to the review screen; it clears automatically after a few seconds.
  • Tapping a push notification now reliably opens the intended screen.

Chat

  • Tapping a quoted message scrolls back to the original; the highlight when jumping to a referenced message lasts longer and appears as a soft rounded glow.
  • The message list scrolls smoothly when someone else is typing, and short messages no longer show extra space above them.
  • Reaction chips and system messages are more polished; on Android, the compose field now clears cleanly after tapping send.

Behind the scenes

  • The penalty and incident notification banners in race mode appear more reliably.
  • The location-sharing status resets correctly after leaving race mode.
  • The location-sharing icon updates immediately when a dedicated device takes over, so officials no longer see a misleading “sharing” indicator on a stationary phone.
  • If the dedicated tracking device becomes unavailable, location sharing automatically falls back to a standard phone.
