What's New in 2.3.7 - Preview any public race or tournament before joining — see the standings, players, and prize before you commit. - Races list redesign: cleaner cards, no more alternating row colors. - Tournaments: leave or forfeit now lives in the menu, matching how races already work. - Leaderboard remembers whether you were on Friends or Global. - Dark mode now switches at the same time for everyone (10pm Eastern) instead of your phone's local time. - Fixed the Home "Suggested Races" carousel sometimes landing between two cards when swiping. - Fixed a race staying in your Home suggestions after you'd already joined it. - Fixed pull-to-refresh not working when a race failed to load. - Performance improvements for races with a lot of participants.
