Election night, live. - Live results: a new section follows election night as races are called. Both chambers against the majority line, national maps that fill in call by call, the latest calls as they land, and your sealed forecast's running score beside them. - The Election Pass: one payment, no subscription. It unlocks every Pro feature, including live results, the full election-night breakdown and every election since 1788, through December 31, 2026. Family Sharing included. - Election night on the big screen: on iOS 27, mirror or connect your iPhone or iPad to a TV for a room-size Senate and House scoreboard, while VoteMapper stays in your hands. In StandBy, the Scoreboard widget now shows both chambers. - Lock in any number of calls: call one race or all of them from the Senate and House maps. Calls lock at 6am ET on Election Day, November 3.

Two maps, one screen. - Head to head: lay your iPad flat between two people and tap Head to head. Each of you gets a Senate or Presidential map turned to face you, the states you disagree on are outlined on both, and Try theirs lets you take the other side's call. - Map and score, side by side: on iPad in landscape, the map sits beside its race list, so a tap on either moves the other. Turn your iPhone sideways and the map fills the screen, with the score pinned next to it. - Election night on the big screen: on iOS 27, mirror or connect your iPhone or iPad to a TV for a room-size Senate and House scoreboard, while VoteMapper stays in your hands.

Ready for November 3. • New Your Scorecard widget: see how your locked-in calls are doing as races are called, right on your Home Screen. Pro shows your running score. • Choose which parties a map tap cycles through: the winners only, or every party. VoteMapper asks once after your first few taps, and you can change it any time in Settings. • Open the season scorecard and the election-night recap from inside the app whenever you like. • Reveal cards read better at large text sizes, name the race when a single new call comes in, and share cleanly to Messages. • Every sheet now closes the same way, with a close button in the same corner. • If a race in your forecast is never called, VoteMapper now explains why your seat totals can look further off than your calls were. • Fixes, including iCloud scenarios that didn't appear until relaunch when Pro finished loading after the app opened.

Election night, on your Home Screen. • Widgets: an Election Day countdown, My Map with your Senate or House map, and an Election Night scoreboard that keeps count as races are called, even with the app closed. • A My Forecast button for Control Center and the Lock Screen. • As races are called, each of your calls gets a reveal card with your running record. See the election-night recap, then a season scorecard to share. • Every call stays free. Pro adds your own map in the My Map widget and the full race-by-race breakdown.

Make your 2026 calls — one race or the whole map. • Lock in any number of Senate or House calls. You're scored only on the races you call, and every call keeps the date you first made it. • A new bar under the map shows what's ready to lock in, with "Keep going" suggestions for the closest races still open. • Calls lock at 6am ET on Election Day, November 3. Add or change calls any time before then. • Optional reminders before calls lock and when results come in. Turn them on or off in Settings.

iCloud sync is more dependable in this update: • Scenarios that showed up twice after syncing are cleaned up, and saving or deleting one now updates every copy. • Switching iCloud accounts resets sync cleanly instead of leaving it stuck. • If you delete VoteMapper's data from iCloud settings, the app restores your maps instead of stalling. • Settings only says "Synced" once a sync has actually finished. Plus smaller reliability fixes.

Links to VoteMapper now open the app directly. Tap a VoteMapper link — from Messages, Notes, the web, or VoteMapper in ChatGPT — and it takes you straight to the right map in the app, instead of a web page. Don't have the app yet? The same link takes you to the App Store.

~ New! You can now try VoteMapper Pro free for 7 days! ~ Every election back to 1788, unlimited saved scenarios and iCloud sync — now with a one-week free trial on the annual plan, then $29.99/year after that. The Settings screen shows you exactly when your trial ends. Historical maps, rebuilt • Every presidential map since 1788 now carries the real electoral roster and nominees, reconciled against the National Archives. • Edit any era's map and reset it to history in one tap. • Saved scenarios remember their year and their third-party candidates. Also in this release: • State district maps stand north-up, and you can open any state straight from the forecast declaration screen. • The forecast banner shows how many races you have called. • Fixes and refinements throughout.

State maps that stand up straight, and a faster way to finish your forecast. • Finish your forecast without leaving it. When Declare Forecast tells you there are still races to call, every state on that list is now a tap away. Open it, call the remaining districts, and you land right back where you were. • State district maps now stand north-up. Open Pennsylvania, Washington, Maine or any other state and its districts sit the way you'd draw them, instead of leaning with the national map. • Under the hood changes (an early build fix for Vision Pro and some tidying).

Start from Consensus, right where you need it, plus fresh race data. • Start from Consensus, right where you need it. Open Declare Forecast before every race is called and one tap fills the races the forecasters agree on, keeps your own picks, and leaves only the tossups for you. • Fresh race data. Ratings refreshed, the Massachusetts Senate primary resolved, and 85 House incumbents corrected against the House Clerk's member list. • Under the hood changes (cleaned up some old code we didn't need anymore!)

A new look throughout, a House map that goes district by district, a bunch of bugs fixed, and some quality of life improvements to boot! • Redesigned from the ground up. New typography and color, a clearer scoreboard with a balance bar that shows the majority at a glance, rating badges and race rows built to be read quickly, a legend on every map, and a map card that finally gives the map room. Saved maps and sealed forecasts get a more formal treatment to match. • Every House district on the map. Tap a state on the House map and it opens to that state's real congressional districts — all 435, drawn from the official 2026 boundaries, including the states that redrew their maps this year. Call them one at a time, pinch in on the close ones, and watch the majority move. • Maps drawn from real geography. The Presidential, Senate and House maps are now drawn from official boundary data, so coastlines and borders are true to the country. Shared cards and forecast certificates get the same sharper map. • Easier to read aloud. VoiceOver now reads every state's rating and the call you've made on it, on every map. • Your maps stay put. Your most recently viewed tab persists when the app is closed and reopened, saved scenarios survive if you downgrade your account, iCloud sync routing has been cleaned up and unified, and Settings says plainly whether or not sync is on and when it last worked. • Fresh results. August primary and runoff results are in for the Alaska, Florida, Wyoming, Oklahoma and South Carolina Senate races.

- Fresh 2026 ratings, automatically: the app now picks up newly published race ratings when you return to it, and this update ships with the latest consensus data. - Fixed: upgrading to Premium now turns on iCloud sync immediately.

- Siri and Shortcuts: ask about any 2026 race, check how your map currently leans, or jump straight into your saved scenarios — from Siri, Spotlight, or the Shortcuts app. - Saved scenarios now load in the background, so launching the app and switching maps stay smooth. - Fixed: gaining Premium outside the paywall (like restoring a purchase) now turns on iCloud sync immediately. - The rating prompt now waits until you've really explored a map instead of interrupting after a save.

- Declare your 2026 midterm forecast: lock in your calls for every Senate and House race and get a shareable certificate with your forecast's fingerprint. As races are called this fall, your forecast is scored against the real results. - Sharing a scenario now hands the finished card to the share sheet instead of an empty panel. - Tapping a state with no contest on the ballot now explains why it can't be called instead of doing nothing. - The paywall now shows every subscription plan up front, annual first. - Fresh installs no longer see a stale What's New popup on first launch. - Latest race data, including Minnesota's GOP Senate primary result.

- Party tallies keep fixed sides now, in alphabetical order from left to right (ie. Democrats on the left, Republicans on the right, no matter who's ahead.) The columns no longer trade places as the lead changes while you edit. - In the More menu, Rename and Delete now show the scenario's name underneath the action instead of crammed into one label, so long scenario names read cleanly.

- Race details list candidates by name with incumbents marked, and DC is hidden in chambers where it has no race. - Sharing now produces a proper card — your map, the running tallies, and the scenario name — instead of a bare screenshot. - Your Senate and House maps now survive closing the app. Every race you call is kept, so a map you spent real time on is still there when you come back. - The scenario you're working in stays loaded. Reopen VoteMapper and you're still in that saved scenario, not a blank map that happens to look like it. We also fixed: - States with an evenly split House delegation could change color when you edited a district somewhere else. - Tapping a state could report a change that never happened.

- Race ratings and candidate updates now reach you without waiting for an app update, so the map stays current as the primaries settle and the November races take shape. - Crash reports no longer include your IP address.

- Deleting a saved map no longer clears the map you're working on. - Fixed deleting saved maps on the Senate and House tabs. - You can now rename a saved map. Press and hold anything under Saved Scenarios to rename or delete it. - Default view and theme now sit together under Appearance in Settings. - Small refinements and stability improvements throughout the app.

- Unsaved work in progress now survives closing the app. Whatever you've mapped out is waiting when you come back, no need to save first. - Small refinements and stability improvements throughout the app.

- Small refinements and stability improvements throughout the app. - Thanks for using VoteMapper! If it's been useful, a rating really helps other people find it.

- New! Share your maps with friends!
