Pinball Map app screenshot

Today we submitted an app update that moves the "You" (your profile) tab out of the bottom navigation and into the side menu, and replaced it with an Events tab. The Events are pulled directly from the IFPA calendar. And we made some little design changes. Should be out soon.
