The iScore team does an excellent job updating and support. I appreciate this. Thank you!
I use both the android (Nexus 7, and SamsungS3), and ipad3. The iPad is really just used to back all the data as I do not take it to the fields.
With that said I do like the GUI features of the ipad. Is there a way to have the Android interface especially the team/player manager and line up the same as the iPad?
Again thanks for everything is core and the support team does.

The developers tried to keep to platform conventions.. (e.g. context menu for android, tash can for iOS) .
the developers have also worked to try and advance game functionality.. update by update.. based on their and user requests. for the most part the platforms are same, just depending on which platform update is next, gets the next feature.
to my recollection, the in game scoring functionality and features are currently the same on both platforms (once the v4.4, for android comes to amazon marketplace, with the addition of Same Error functionality being the last in game scoring feature addition i recall)
What specifically are you seeing different on iPad vs Android? ,
recognizing Android conventions may supersede and sometimes the implementation of android varies from device to device, (slightly).

Thx for your reply. Functionally for the most part are the same this is true. What I am speaking of is graphic user interface of some of the areas. A couple of examples would be:
When setting the line up ipad has popup menus for batters and field positions, seems a bit more intuitive and seem a tad bit easier to move players around for changes in order.
Another example would be with player and team profiles. The team profiles have tabs for roster, leagues and such. In the player profile a player can be active or inactive. Ipad keeps up with team record and such.
I love the android one and i much more prefer Android over "I" things. Game functions are the same.
It was just a suggestion not a complaint in anyway. As I have said the devs do a GREAT job with their development and support something other devs could learn from.

Not taken as a complaint.
Just trying to illicit examples of interest to help guide them
( which you did)
The inactive player feature, though not an in game scoring feature, I would call a feature difference . Not just a User Interface difference. I had forgotten that feature was not in android . ( for what it is worth I have not found inactive player as useful as I had hoped, I generally make new team and just add year to it)

Inactive Player was added in the Android release that just came out this week.

Thx...I will look for it. Only had a cpl of mins to play with the update. Keep up the good work.
The inactive I 'think' I would use for my daughters travel team because there are those who start off with the team and leave. I break down each season; summer travel, fall travel, and school ball in my leagues so instead of having to delete players who may come back the next season or whatnot I can activate or inactivate. Hope this makes sense (430am) lol
