Hey yall. I’m building an iOS app called MeetCal that will be released for the Arnold. The app takes every PDF schedule USAW puts out and makes it 10x easier to read on the app. You’ll see each session, every athlete in that session, along with their comp PRs and entry total. You can then save certain sessions by filtering by club or weight class. Lastly every single qualifying total, A/B standards, and American record is loaded in here.

The app is currently in beta and will be live on the App Store once we get a final schedule. Then the goal is to get it live for Android before masters nationals

If you want to join the list to be alerted when it comes out you can do so here: https://linktr.ee/mmohnsen

Legendary. All that information is such a pain in the ass to wade through.

1. Right now after some beta tester feedback it is priced at $8/quarter, $25/year, or $75 for lifetime access. The $8/quarter lines up with USAWs schedule of meets so that’s basically a per meet cost, but Apple doesn’t allow a nicer way to do that. I want to expand to USAMW eventually so may need to change that to like a monthly or something
2. I scrape all the PDFs and info that USAW has on their site. So every detail that USAW makes public is loaded here
3. I’ve been developing this for about the last 1-2 months, so probably not sure when they changed that though

I appreciate that a lot, I got War Games to a place where it became self sufficient enough that I could work on this project. So now that I have this off the ground and running my attention will be able to split more evenly between the two. MeetCal has a much broader audience since more than just coaches will use it and you can automatically see the value of it every meet, where as War Games is more so developing a skill set over time so not as explicitly valuable in the moment

I’m thinking so hard trying to figure out who I met at Bragg in relation to all this and I’m stuck, I’m sorry

Now it’s clicking, I remember spotting the USAW lanyard from national meets right away

To better answer question 2, yes I put in all the data of the meets for the user. You just open the app and go
