Field feedback round: faster part browsing, install as app, laser-ready QR, connection awareness

2026-07-14T00:00:00.000Z

Four improvements shipped straight from field feedback — you asked, we built it.

Parts — Browse part to part. Opening a part no longer blurs and locks the rest of the screen: the inventory stays readable behind a subtle dim, and you can click straight from one part to the next without closing the panel — inspector-style, the way engineers actually review a car. Requested during a field demo.
Mobile — Install ICRX as an app. Add ICRX to your phone or desktop home screen and it opens in its own window, with its own icon and name — no browser chrome. See installing ICRX as an app.
Parts — QR labels, now laser-ready. Every part's QR code can be downloaded as SVG (vector) alongside PNG — drop it straight into your laser engraver's software to mark parts permanently, not just print stickers. Requested by an LMP2 race engineer during a field demo. See barcodes and QR labels.
Everywhere — Connection awareness. The app now tells you, loudly, the moment something is wrong with your connection: a red banner when you're offline, an amber banner when live sync drops (with the time it went stale), and a green confirmation once you're back — at which point ICRX automatically re-fetches your team's data so nobody works for hours on a stale screen without knowing. Built after field feedback: silent stale screens are the #1 real-world failure teams report in the incumbent tools. Full details: the connection banner explained.

Race Wall (preview): a live-timing wall for the engineering stand

2026-07-13T00:00:00.000Z

First module of the new Engineering area: Race Wall, a live-timing wall designed for the engineering stand — big, glanceable, and built for the pit box.

Race Wall is in preview while we validate live feeds across timing providers. If your series' feed isn't supported yet, tell us which one you need.

July highlights: multi-unit lifing, crew management, FIA export hardening

2026-07-01T00:00:00.000Z

The July round-up — three bigger features that landed earlier this month.

Parts — Multi-unit lifing. Part life limits can now combine km, engine hours, events and calendar expiry — whichever cycle ends first drives the alert. The exact rules are published in how ICRX calculates mileage.
Events — Crew management. Plan who travels to each event, spot conflicts, reuse crew templates, and export travel/crew sheets as PDFs.
Tyres — FIA declaration hardening. Exports (PDF/Excel) keep raw values intact and survive real-world data — no more spreadsheet formatting corruption. See importing tyres for how tyre data gets into ICRX in the first place.
