It’s been a long time coming, but Cub Tracker 1.1 is now available. This release finally adds support for Webelos badges, belt loops and pins, as well as a handful of bug fixes. Let’s take a quick look at some of the changes.

Probably the two most request features for Cub Tracker are support for belt loops and pins, and Webelos badges. Cub Tracker 1.1 will deliver both of those, plus some bugs fixes and UI changes.
I have finally published Cub Tracker 1.0.4. It took longer than I’d hoped, so I had to trim the feature set a bit to get it out as quickly as I could. This release includes the much anticipated (and heretofore inexplicably missing) Webelos data. It also has a handful of bug fixes (including one that prevents an application crash in certain cases). As noted in the release notes, it might be best to send yourself a completion report on the off chance that the upgrade goes awry.
My plan for the next version is to add support belt loops, pins, etc. I hope to have that in before the scouting year officially begins. Here’s hoping.
As always, if you have questions or suggestions, feel free to head over to the Cub Tracker Facebook page.

It’s been a while since the last update, so I thought I’d post a quick note letting you know what’s going on. Work is progressing, though somewhat more slowly than I’d hoped due to work, vacation, and a system failure. Hopefully, all that’s behind me (especially the system failure! : ), and I’m working on an update now. It won’t be quite as big as I’d hoped, but it will fix the missing Webelos data issue as well as some other minor bugs. In the interest of getting at least some Webelos support added, I’ve opted to push the support for the badges to the next release, which should also bring belt loop and pin support.
I’m not sure when I’ll be able to release the update, but I hope to be able to do so in the next day or two. I’m testing the update now to make sure it’s stable and doesn’t mess up any existing data, which I’m sure will be of interest to everyone.
If you have any questions, concerns, or suggestions, please feel free to drop me line.

This is a very minor release that fixes a bug that prevented a user from editing a scout. There is one fairly important change in this release, though: When changing a scout’s rank, his list of completed activities will be cleared, which will give him a clean slate in terms of reporting for his new rank. Without this change, all his Wolf activities, for example, would show up on this Bear completion report.
Thanks for your patronage and support! I hope you find this useful.

I just published Cub Tracker 1.0.2 to the Android Market. This release brings some UI fixes which not only make certain screens easier to use (by not consuming almost have the screen with a date picker), but should also address the “blank screen” issues some users have reported on certain devices (such as the Droid X and Motorola Xoom).
This release also adds a new “to-do” report, which shows the achievements and electives the selected scouts have not yet accomplished. This report, which is also emailable just like the completion report, can optionally add the activity description if desired.
A final, minor addition of an “About” screen, which includes links to this site, the Cub Tracker twitter account, and the Cub Tracker Facebook page.
Please check out this release and let me know if you have any issues or feature requests.
Many thanks!

Cub Tracker 1.0.1 is now available in the Android Market. This has a small, but important bug fix in it. On some devices (not including mine or any of the emulators I tested on), trying to record and achievement or elective causes the application to crash. I have found and fixed the issue. I was able to reproduce the bug on my wife’s phone and have verified the fix there. Sorry for the inconvenience. It surprised me too.
Cub Tracker 1.0 is now available in the Android Market. If you have a Cub Scout or lead a Cub Scout den, please check it out and let me know what you think.
I’m still working on some documentation, so please be patient. I’ll try to have to it online in the next few days.
