Custom command added to batch actions

Advanced users of our Tracker Management asked for the ability to send custom commands to many selected GPS trackers with one click. ... instead of sending the same command to another GPS tracker one by one.

To increase the efficiency while configuring your GPS devices, we've now released the feature that lets you send custom commands. This function can be applied to the active devices of your tracker management.

Select the devices, click "Batch Actions" and choose "Custom Command".

New Racemap Tracking App released

We've got new Racemap Tracking apps out in the stores! We think our improvements are going to be a big help for organizers, race directors, and timers to conduct real-time tracking of participants. New features available with the new app version:

  • Automated non-movement notification 
  • Seamless flow when participants join live tracking 
  • Push notifications to target user groups such as participants of a certain event or all users of a custom app (beta)

Needless to say, the new release is available for all of our custom apps. More about user-friendly live tracking in our documentation: https://docs.racemap.com/how-to-use-live-tracking/tab-keys

Short name added for POIs

We've been asked for this new feature in the race visualization: Short name for points of interest (POI) to improve customizing your tracking maps. 

Now, when you're looking at a race visualization, you'll be able to see the short name in the map, sidebar, and elevation chart. You can even select a background color for the short name. The full name of the POI remains visible in the sidebar as additional information. Edit the POI settings in the map settings of your tracking map.

New leaderboard: switch contests & filter participants

Users like our easy and flexible results as this solution works with real-time data (live ranks) and is optimized for mobile usage.

switch the leaderboard in between multiple contests

We were asked to add two more features to our ranks.

  • Connect multiple contests respectively stages.
  • Integrate the filter tags from our visualization. Tags can be gender, age group, or whatever is needed to classify the participants in your event.

Now users can switch between contests and filter participants in the leaderboard directly. Each filter tag provides the corresponding ranking. That way you can classify various categories among the participants of your event.

New dynamic key process

We developed a new user flow to automatically guide participants when connecting their phones for live tracking. The new process is optimized for scanning a QR code and provides a seperate landing page for each key. 

The convenient user experience scales with a huge number of participants and saves support time at the help desk. The process dynamically guides participants independent from 

  • The user's phone is iOS or Android. 
  • Racemap App is installed or not installed. 
  • The participant opens the key link on the smartphone or on the desktop.
