Scanning QR Codes For Event Results

The process to scan in athletes’ QR codes at the finish of a race should be intuitive and quick to learn for your volunteers.

Once logged in and viewing a meet:

Navigate to your event. Example: 100m
Select the race or “Add Race”
If there are no existing results and you are scanning them in fresh, select the “+ Add Athlete” button
If you already set times or imported from an external app, there will be a list of times without any athlete information.
- Tap on any area in the first line to edit the information for the 1st place finisher
Tap on the QR code icon in the top-left corner to scan in the athlete’s tag using the camera on your device.
Tap the “Allow” button to grant access for the app to use your device’s camera.
Scan the QR code with your camera.
The information for the athlete should auto-fill in the form. The data should include Name, Team, Gender, and Level (Grade)
Tap ‘Save’ to close the modal.
- Tap the next blank row in the results and repeat the process to scan the next athlete.
OR, if you are scanning in results that do not have times already, you may select ‘Save And Add Another’.
- If you also check the box for ‘Auto Scan’, it will immediately launch the scanner when adding the next athlete.
