Virtual Volunteer

Very simple to use! I have just downloaded the app to my Samsung S10, and admittedly have only played with it (not used in real world), but seems incredibly straightforward. I like the fact it suggests flight mode is enabled- reduce the risk of interruption during timing. The scanner works in portrait or landscape and the barcode does not need to be perfectly aligned. I might just volunteer for timing roles now, rather than avoiding it!!

Excellent, so much better now that we can scan the QR codes to upload results directly to WEBFMS. We have one regular volunteer who can't scan the QR code as the picture is always squashed and won't scan (doesn't happen in the normal camera app), also it would be nice if people were prompted to turn the volume up at the start to make it easier to use.

Works fine. For scanning, the red line is only for Apple versions. In Android phones only there is no red line and in fact you can scan both the barcode and finish token at the same time! If you can see an image or the system takes a while to focus and record the number, then it may be that your phone's hardware or software is too old. Top tip: Practice at home before the event. You can download some test sheets for scanning.
