Takedown 4.1 (October 26, 2026)

Takedown 4.1 is a roster release: your Roster and your Opponent Teams now keep themselves current. It requires iOS 18.5 or later, like 4.0.

Roster Sync

Getting a roster from the online database is now a subscription. Subscribe to your team once, and every change on Trackwrestling, USA Bracketing or USA Wrestling reaches your Roster on its own; the same for Opponent Teams, by individual team or a whole state at a time. The refresh button is gone. See Your Roster: Getting Wrestlers into Takedown, Roster Sync: Automatic Roster Updates and Opponent Teams: Subscribing, Adding and Searching.

Locations and maps

Your team and each Opponent Team have a location, filled in from the database when it's known. New home Events use your home location and away duals use the opponent's, and every address is a tap away from Apple Maps or Google Maps. See Your Team and Scheduling Dual Meets, Tournaments and Dual Meet Tournaments.

Also in 4.1

  • Search the Opponent Teams list by name, short name or state.
  • Opponent Team logos from the database: tap Add Logo, then Use Roster Logo.
  • The selected Season can't be archived by mistake.
  • Fixes: Swap Wrestlers now swaps the scoring actions too; multi-day tournament weigh-ins stamp the right day; changing a tournament's weight classes after weigh-ins recalculates assignments from recorded weights; match notes, Forgot Password and several iOS 18 crashes.

Takedown 4.0 (September 11, 2026)

Takedown 4.0 is the biggest release since Takedown LIVE. Here's what changed and where to read more. Takedown 4.0.1 (October 2, 2026) fixed bugs in calendar publishing, Contacts and practice attendance.

  • Reorder tournament bouts and exhibition matches by dragging them in Pairings; see Pairings and the Lineup Handout. The dual meet lineup Handout has been redesigned.

Practice Planner

Plan each practice in sections and activities, attach a video link to any activity, and email the plan to coaches and athletes with one tap. Practices now have an end time and can repeat weekly for the whole Season. See The Practice Planner.

Shareable calendar

Takedown publishes a calendar of your Events and practices. Share it once; it stays current in Apple Calendar, Google Calendar and Outlook. See Sharing the Season Calendar.
