Plan: continued investigation.11/24/2025 — scoring blood time at the beginning of a period can generate multiple BT notations in the scoring transcript
Workaround: investigating
Plan: investigating11/10/2025 — you can’t reformat your data to release 3.5 using an iPad running iOS 15. The reformatting data happens only on one iPad. Once the data is reformatted, any iPad running iOS 15+ can be used as long as it is running release 3.5.
Workaround: (1) if you have access to an iPad running iOS 16+, log in to Takedown on that iPad to transition to release 3.5, (2) if your iPad is upgradeable to iOS 16+, do the upgrade and retry, and (3) if those options aren’t available, reach out to support@levelchanger.com and we’ll migrate your data to release 3.5.
Plan: none, it is not be possible to reformat your Takedown data from release 3.4 to release 3.5 format using iOS 1511/9/2025 — USA Bracketing sourced rosters are incompatible with Takedown version 3.4 and earlier. Trying to download them with release 3.4 will cause a crash.

Plan: none.2/11/2025 — scoreboard advertising durations are inconsistently applied
Workaround: none
Plan: investigating2/5/2025 — scoring multiple pins in a match was possible in older versions of Takedown. These matches will cause the pin count in certain reports to be overstated.
Workaround: rescore the match(es) so that there is one pin.
Plan: none1/30/25 — getting a notification might stop video recording.
Workaround: enable Do Not Disturb. Note that this has the undesirable side effect of disabling the “Video Stopped Recording” notification that Takedown sends to your device when the operator puts Takedown in the background while video recording a match.
Plan: none.1/30/25 — getting a system alert — low battery warning, for example — stops video recording.
Workaround: it is possible that enabling Do Not Disturb will prevent system alerts from appearing. Engineering is unable to test this situation.
Plan: none.1/23/25 — In Season>Schedule, the camera icon — indicating video is available for an Event — is missing.
Workaround: none
Plan: reproducible, none.1/23/25 — error getting channels from YouTube reported in Manage Video.
Workaround: in Manage Video, log out of YouTube and log back in to YouTube.
Plan: not reproducible, none.1/23/25 — secondary clocks disabled when Undoing back to previous period and match clock is 0:00
Workaround: add time to match clock.
Plan: reproducible, none.1/23/25 — in Settings>>Takedown LIVE, persistent message says “checking for team registration” and match scores aren’t publishing to Takedown LIVE.
Workaround: log out of Takedown and log back in. In Settings>>Takedown LIVE, enable Takedown LIVE.
Plan: reproducible. None.1/16/25 — swiping down and revealing Notifications during video recording will stop the video.
Workaround: turn off Notifications, don’t swipe down during a match.
Plan: none1/13/25 — release 3.4.8 introduced a bug into the scoring of a dual meet double forfeit that causes a crash when the match is uploaded to Trackwrestling.
Workaround: if you experience a crash uploading to Trackwrestling, go to the Event in Takedown and delete double forfeits in the Event. For a dual meet, use ‘Double Forfeit Unscored Weight Classes” to easily rescore the double forfeits that you deleted.
Plan: release 3.4.9 fixes the scoring bug for newly scored double forfeits. It does not repair existing matches scored as double forfeits using 3.4.8. That repair needs to be done manually using the workaround above.11/26/24 — a blank rown can appear when selecting a wrestler from your Roster.
Workaround: it doesn’t cause any harm, ignore it.
Plan: reproducible, investigating.11/18/24 — scoring interface becomes non-functional through some unusual scoring sequence. We’ve seen this twice in the field.
Workaround: Force quit the app and relaunch.
Plan: investigating. We don’t know how to reproduce this bug. If you can reliably reproduce it, please reach out to support@levelchanger.com.11/9/24 — Takedown LIVE. If you publish matches to Takedown LIVE and change the name of your tournament, the matches will appear as two different events.
Workaround: no workaround. Use the Event checklist before scoring.
Plan: none11/9/24 — Takedown LIVE notifications are broken
Workaround: none
Plan: none10/28/24 — Videos appear to be local but they aren’t. They’re in iCloud Photos. During upload to YouTube, this can cause excessive delays as the video first has to be downloaded from iCloud Photos to your iPad before it can be uploaded to YouTube.
Workaround: don’t use iCloud Photos. It creates multiple problems that are frustrating, unexpected and difficult to diagnose. Turn iCloud Photos off. iCloud Drive is not the same as iCloud Photos and it is OK to leave iCloud Drive enabled. Do not use iCloud Photos.
Plan: none. Turn iCloud Photos off on your Takedown iPads to avoid frustrating and difficult to diagnose problems.10/28/24 — Videos disappear from iCloud Photos after deletion from device.
Workaround: If you delete the local video copy, that deletion persists to all your devices (registered to the same Apple ID) and iCloud Photos. Do not use iCloud Photos to backup your videos. If you want to keep a copy of your original Takedown-recorded videos, find a different method — Dropbox, Google Photos, Google Drive, iCloud Drive, copy to computer or external drive — for retaining your original Takedown-recorded videos. Note: iCloud Photos and iCloud Drive are different Apple services. iCloud Drive is fine as a backup location for your video. iCloud Photos is not. Do not use iCloud Photos on the same iPad as Takedown.
Plan: none, this is a iCloud Photos limitation.10/22/24 — Crash after launch on Macintosh
Workaround:Uninstall Takedown from the Macintosh
Delete associated Takedown files manually:
In the Finder navigate to the home folder and open it
To show hidden files, press Command + Shift + . (Note the period here) Hidden files will be in shown as light gray.

Plan: reproducible, none

Workaround: don’t enable ‘Guided Access’ iOS feature in iPad Settings
Plan: investigating1/12/24 — Roster or Opponent Team wrestler edits are not reflected if the wrestler is already loaded as a competitor in Scoring. This does not impact how the wrestler names are saved when the match is complete.
Workaround: reselect the wrestler in Scoring
Plan: fix in future release.1/12/24 — when using an external camera, the image in the viewport is flipped on its vertical axis. This can be disorienting. It does not impact the recorded video, just the image in the viewport
Workaround: none
Plan: fix in future release.11/30/23 — for Signing Up for Takedown, icloud.com email address doesn’t work.
Workaround: use another email address. A team-focused, Gmail address works best
Plan: none. Cause is unknown.11/2/23 — state-specific weight classes in Settings do not automatically update with the most recent value.
Workaround: force-quit Takedown and relaunch to load any state-specific changes
Plan: none6/3/22 — changing your My Team name may not persist to your Takedown LIVE presentation
