v8.9.0

A new AI assistant that sets up your event from a plain-language request, plus a single action menu on the web event page. The lock-screen race overview now lists your latest penalties and incidents, and penalty and incident details attach to the right athlete more reliably.

Officiating

  • Technical officials: The live race overview on your lock screen — and the Dynamic Island on iPhone — now lists your most recent penalties and incidents, with a badge counting how many have come in since you last opened the app. Opening the app clears the badge.

Penalties

  • Penalties and incidents now reliably show the correct athlete when athletes are imported from a start list. Some could previously be recorded without the athlete's name attached.

Event setup

  • Organisation admins and technical delegates: A new AI assistant configures an event for you — assign officials to races, set a person's role, change race and event settings, add bib-number ranges, and create races — from a plain-language request, a pasted roster, or an attached start list. It replies with a checklist of exact changes, and nothing is saved until you review and apply it. Open it from the event's + action menu on the web, or the side drawer in the app. Available once RaceRanger enables it for your organisation.
  • On the web event page, the action button is now a single + menu that gathers everything you can add to an event — a race, a race merge, a user, a chat, a document, and the AI assistant — in one place.
  • On the web, the event page shows its documents and chats as card overviews, and editors can edit or remove custom chats directly from the chats overview.

Behind the scenes

  • Location tracking and the live race overview hold up more reliably while a race is running.
  • Start lists stay current right up to the race start, so officials begin a race with the latest athlete entries even when the entry list changes close to go time.
