Volleyball Ace Stats9.83 - App Store

version 9.83

Version History This update includes updates for Apple compatibility and minor bug fixes. It also adds the option for teams to not switch sides each set during a match. This reflects changes to the rules of volleyball where teams changing sides during a match is optional. 9.83 10/16/2023 Volleyball Ace version 9.82 is a revision which works around a MaxPreps problem. Until about six months ago, stats could be uploaded as .max files with descriptive file names, including date of match and team names. A change by MaxPreps caused uploads of stats to fail unless the upload file was named “import.txt”. The warning message sometimes says that the file does not exist. Sometimes it claims the file is invalid. The problem, however, is the name of the upload file. Version 9.82 of Volleyball Ace uses the shorter and less descriptive name. When MaxPreps resolves this file naming problem, we will release a subsequent update to restore the use of descriptive file names. 9.82 09/11/2022 This version changes date and time handling to be compatible with newer iOS devices. It also updates some menu items which were truncated on iPhones. 9.80 04/26/2021 Volleyball Ace version 9.71 has numerous new features and a number of usability improvements.

Quick subs (main court screen) and bench stats have added player names to player numbers in drop-down lists. The libero player is also marked.

Score adjustments are easier, especially for multiple points (When a set is to be started with the score 4-4 in some club tournaments). Tap on the score at the top of the page and a screen which allows multiple-point adjustments appears.

Using consolidation, multiple sets can be emailed from the iPad/iPhone with the send email feature. Older versions allowed sending only one set at a time.

The Rotate and Clear buttons on the Lineup/Substitutions screen are now always available. Previously, these buttons were hidden once a set was under way. During set play, the Clear button can be used to remove a player from the lineup without having to specify a replacement. (Before a set begins the Clear button removes all 6 lineup entries.)

The new default for the main court screen and the lineup/subs screen is to show player name and number on the buttons. Previously, player numbers without names was the default display style.

Editing and messages about illegal substitutions have been relaxed. Previously, Volleyball Ace was quite stubborn about allowing subs which it considered illegal. In this newer version, Volleyball Ace allows any substitutions and only warns about the first one which it believes is illegal. (As always, substitutions can be undone.) 9.71 10/31/2019 This version fixes an issue with Consolidate when using team names which are more than 20 characters long. (Team name length was expanded to 30 characters in version 9.67 and we missed a revision in the Consolidate module). If your team name (or your opponent team name) is less than 21 characters long or if you are not using Consolidate, then it is not necessary to download this update. 9.68 09/21/2018 This is a minor update which fixes two bugs.

If you have a roster player numbered zero (only allowed at prep-NFHS level) and that player is the libero, there were issues manually placing the libero into the lineup. (Automatic libero replacements worked okay.) These zero libero replacement issues have been fixed.

Also, if you use the Hudl tag file video export feature and some of the sets in a match begin in the morning (am) and others begin in the afternoon (pm) there was a spurious "Invalid times" message. This no longer occurs.

If you have neither of these situations then this update can be ignored. 9.67 09/12/2018 Volleyball Ace 9.66 has been changed to improve functionality on the iPhone X platform. Scores and other important information at the top of the screen has been moved down so that it is fully within the "safe area" of the iPhone X. Several screen issues on other iPhone platforms have also been resolved.

Send options are now available with consolidated reports. This means that using the Consolidation in app purchase feature you can email multiple sets in a single email from the Stats/send screen with the data option. Note: Different email systems may have limits to how many files can be attached to an email. Thus, sending an entire season of stats - 200 to 300 sets - may not work, but it is possible to send 20 or more sets at a time.

Toolbar menu items which had previously been truncated or replaced by the ellipsis ("...") have been fixed. Display of the selected liberos on the libero button on the Lineup/subs screen has also been fixed.

Out of rotation messages have been improved and are more accurate. They can also be suppressed.

Team names and player names have been expanded and names can be entered with first and last names as separate items. Handling of non-ASCII characters or extended characters (such as accented characters) in names and other text fields has also been improved. 9.66 08/13/2018 Version 9.64 of Volleyball Ace fixes an issue with iPhones running iOS 11. It also displays our most current URL, www.taprecorder.com.

If you are running Volleyball Ace 9.63 or earlier on an iPhone with iOS 11, you may have a problem tapping on entries on the toolbar at the bottom of the screen. For new Volleyball Ace users, this caused you to get stuck on the Registration screen. For existing users, the problem occurred on the file manager (open) screen.

This toolbar problem is fixed by version 9.64 of Volleyball Ace.

Note that the problem resulted from changes to iOS made by Apple in its most recent releases. As a result of those changes, code in Volleyball Ace, which worked on previous versions of iOS, stopped working properly (on iPhones only). Apple helped us to resolve this problem by suggesting changes to our code to ensure iOS 11 screen compatibility.

We apologize for any problems this may have caused and hope you have a great volleyball season. 9.64 01/04/2018 Volleyball Ace version 9.63 has major improvements in the flow and reliability of player positions as they enter and leave the lineup. This has also improved the accuracy of remaining subs, especially for the opponent. Version 9.63 also fixes a minor issue with the use of player zero and MaxPreps export.

Displays of saved set stat files in the Open Set Manager and Consolidation are now sorted in descending (date) order. Previously, devices running newer versions of iOS listed them in random order. 9.63 11/08/2017 Volleyball Ace Version 9.61 fixes a problem with under counting the total number of set attempts in the MaxPreps email export. This has been fixed. No other changes were made to this version.

Volleyball Ace Version 9.60 reflects new, lower prices on In App Purchase Features. Most significantly the cost of video time code recording has been reduced to $19.99. Other features, including Opponent Insight Reporting ($4.99), Multiple Rosters ($4.99) and Charting ($9.99) have also been reduced.

Version 9.60 also fixes several minor issues in Volleyball Ace.

First, a problem which caused Volleyball Ace to freeze when selecting "Change" and "About Volleyball Ace" was fixed. Second, the product registration screen added a "Not Now" button so the user can choose not to enter name and email address to use the product. This was changed to conform to Apple Guidelines for Data Collection and Storage. 9.61 08/28/2017 Volleyball Ace Version 9.60 reflects new, lower prices on In App Purchase Features. Most significantly the cost of video time code recording has been reduced to $19.99. Other features, including Opponent Insight Reporting ($4.99), Multiple Rosters ($4.99) and Charting ($9.99) have also been reduced.

This version also fixes several minor issues in Volleyball Ace.

Second, the product registration screen has added a "Not Now" button so the user can choose not to enter name and email address to use the product. This has been changed to conform to Apple Guidelines for Data Collection and Storage. 9.60 08/11/2017 New in Version 9.54: Repaired a small issue which caused "invalid object 109" messages on iPhone using endline view of main court.

New in Version 9.45-9.52: Added "Attempts" report. Implemented roster player zero (as permitted under NFHS rules). Remembers lineups in second and subsequent sets. Improved: Menus; Date and time settings; Substitutions, Libero replacements and handling of lineup positions. Added help buttons. 9.54 03/06/2017 New in Version 9.45-9.52: Added "Attempts" report. Implemented roster player zero (as permitted under NFHS rules). Remembers lineups in second and subsequent sets. Improved: Menus; Date and time settings; Substitutions, Libero replacements and handling of lineup positions. Added help buttons. 9.52 02/13/2017 Version 9.43 adds team names and set scores to Consolidation reports. It also addresses issues with Hudl tag file export. It also corrects problems with player positions when statting a match.

Hudl tag file exports (for stat-based video in Hudl) now work even if the sets are not numbered in sequence from one. Set counts won/lost for a match have also been corrected.

Three issues with player positions have been fixed. If a libero is replaced by a non-libero player, problems with the resulting position have been fixed. Also, in 5-1 offenses, there were circumstances where an opposite (right side hitter) was given the position of setter, which should not have been the case and has been fixed. And finally, at the end of a set the default lineup for the next set will have correct default positions. 9.43 09/26/2016 Version 9.42 is a bug fix and clean up version of Volleyball Ace. It addresses problems with saved lineups which include sub reminders, problems with email of Hudl tag file export and several internal issues which affected reliability.

Version 9.40/9.41 implemented an export to Hudl XML video. You can stat your team with Volleyball Ace (with the In App Purchase Feature "Video Time Code Recording" enabled), and then create the Hudl XML tag file to link stats and Hudl video. Once you have uploaded the Hudl tag file and recorded video to Hudl, you can look at your video by stat, player etc. iPad devices can email the Hudl tag file created by Volleyball Ace. iPhones must transfer the data using iTunes. Note that export of Hudl XML files is also supported by the Volleyball Ace Strategic Analyzer on the desktop. Also note that the In App Purchase price of the "Record Time Codes for Video" was been reduced to $39.99. 9.42 09/05/2016 Volleyball Ace 9.41 implements an export to Hudl XML video. This means that you can stat your team with Volleyball Ace (with the In App Purchase Feature "Video Time Code Recording" enabled), and then create the Hudl XML index file to link stats and Hudl video. Once you have uploaded the Hudl XML file and recorded video to Hudl, you can look at your video by stat, player etc. iPad devices can email the Hudl XML file created by Volleyball Ace. iPhones must transfer the data using iTunes. Note that export of Hudl XML files is also supported by the Volleyball Ace Strategic Analyzer on the desktop. Also note that the In App Purchase price of the "Record Time Codes for Video" has been reduced to $39.99.

Note that you need to purchase and use the "Consolidate" In App Purchase feature ($9.99) to export Hudl XML files. You also need to purchase the "Record Video Time Codes Feature" in order to record video time codes ($39.99). 9.40 08/08/2016 Version 9.39 fixes a problem with saved lineups which version 9.37 only partially solved. It also addresses a problem when team names of 20 or more characters are entered.

This also includes all of the new features introduced in version 9.34: Swipe gestures in reporting; Export to MaxPreps from Consolidate; Autosave (every 5th rally); Information message displays (timeouts, sub counts, some warning messages) with no response required; Team names displayed at bottom of emailed stat reports. 9.39 11/17/2015 This version fixes a problem with saving lineups which first occurred in version 9.34.

New Features from version 9.34: Swipe gestures in reporting; Export to MaxPreps from Consolidate; Autosave (every 5th rally); Information message displays (timeouts, sub counts, some warning messages) with no response required; Team names displayed at bottom of emailed stat reports.

Problem fixes: No more extra lines on points per rotation reports; Always remembers player positions after save/open even if no transition offense specified; Better handling of player positions with substitutions; Gracefully handles non-ASCII characters (such as accented letters) in team and player names; 9.37 10/21/2015 New Features: Swipe gestures in reporting; Export to MaxPreps from Consolidate; Autosave (every 5th rally); Information message displays (timeouts, sub counts, some warning messages) with no response required; Team names displayed at bottom of emailed stat reports.

Problem fixes: No more extra lines on points per rotation reports; Always remembers player positions after save/open even if no transition offense specified; Better handling of player positions with substitutions; Gracefully handles non-ASCII characters (such as accented letters) in team and player names; 9.34 10/02/2015 Volleyball Ace version 9.30 is iOS 8 compatible, as were 9.27 and its predecessor versions.

This version fixes a problem with the Apple app store where purchase of the Consolidation in app purchase feature did not work properly. It also fixes a problem when the score is adjusted for the final point of a set. A problem with saving team rosters when the team name was exactly 20 characters (the maximum) is also fixed. An intermittent problem which prevented putting libero into the lineup is also fixed. 9.30 12/13/2014 Volleyball Ace is compatible with iOS8. (version 9.25 and earlier were compatible as well).

Version 9.27 extends the Consolidation in app purchase feature so that charts can be consolidated as well as stats. It also fixes a problem in Consolidation set selection with home/away and league/non-league fields.

This version also reinstates iOS 5.1 compatibility so that Volleyball Ace will run on all versions of the iPad.

This version has been tested under the new iOS 8. 9.27 11/24/2014 This version fixes an issue with saving multiple lineups. This problem is specific to 64-bit iPads and iPhones (iPad Air, iPhone 5S, newer iPad minis) and is not exhibited on older devices. This also adds a minor edit on team, player and match names to avoid issues if comma or quote characters are embedded in names. 9.25 08/17/2014 Version 9.23 improves handling of player positions during substitutions and libero replacements. Incoming players (other than the libero) will not change the position once the set is underway. When using a transition offense (5-1, 6-2, etc.), problems related to changes to player positions, have been resolved. Problems with the Undo function, especially after a substitution, have also been fixed. 9.23 07/11/2014 Version 9.22 adds support for arm64 devices including iPhone 5S, iPad Air and iPad Mini. It also fixes an issue with consolidation when sets with slightly differing rosters are being consolidated. A problem with specifying home/away and league/non-league fields for matches has also been fixed. 9.22 06/18/2014 This version adds a season consolidation feature to Volleyball Ace. Stats and charts can be consolidated and reviewed for multiple matches (or just all sets in a match). Consolidation is available as an in-app purchase feature.

Minor issues with printing to ePrint-enabled printers with the iPad have been fixed.

Edits on automatic player substitutions, typically involving the libero, have also been improved. 9.20 04/25/2014
