About this app
The YB Tracking iPhone/iPad app allows you to follow live race tracking on your mobile - updated to feature everything we track including yacht races, car rallies, adventure racing and more. Information in the race viewer is also controlled by the race organisers - not YB Tracking. For instance, if a race organiser has not provided pictures for the teams, then pictures will not appear in this app or on our web-based viewer. Key features: - See information about the teams in the race - View live leaderboards - Review the map, course and wind info (where available) - Zoom to all teams, leaders, and the course area - Social media feed with news about the race - Replay facility, to allow you to scrub backwards and forwards in time Note: This app requires an internet connection to operate
App details
What you can learn from YB Races
Every shipping app on the App Store has gone through the same decisions you're working through right now: which screenshot goes first, what caption sits over it, which device frame to show, what color the background should be. The 3 screenshots above are YB Races's answers to those questions — they're public, they're real, and they made it through Apple's review.
What the numbers say: YB Races runs a light set where the background shifts from screenshot to screenshot (first shot #CCD4DC) — each image has to stand on its own, so the captions carry more of the story. The accent colour we picked up, #2C4C64, is the one to reuse for badges, arrows and highlighted words if you borrow this look. Hit Use this style to open the editor with these exact colours and drop your own screenshot in.
Notice the first screenshot in particular. It's the one users see in search results and on the product page, and it's where most apps spend their best caption and tightest design. Look at the proportion of background to phone, where the text sits, what one thing the image is trying to communicate.
