Thanks for testing. Anything confusing, broken, or missing — this goes straight to Jeff, the developer.
“What are the watch buttons for? Do I need a watch?”
No. Those buttons send defensive shift calls to a
companion watch app, but that app isn't released yet. Right now the buttons don't
do anything, even if you have a watch. The watch app will be released with Diamond
Signals, the next app after Scout, which rolls out soon after Scout. If the buttons
are in your way, turn off Watch features on the home screen and they disappear.
“Why can't I track baserunners, or enter runs as they score?”
That's intentional. Diamond Scout tracks the batter and where the ball went, not runners moving around the bases. The score at the top is a manual tally you can adjust, and you can leave it alone if you don't need it. Scout is a scouting app, not a scorebook. For full scorekeeping, GameChanger already does that job.
