What's New in HamTraqr
2.2.0
October 28, 2026
Share Location by QR code • Scan an event's Share Location code with the iPhone camera and HamTraqr opens straight to it: it connects to the event's map and opens Share Location with the details filled in. Without the app, the code offers the App Store. • Sharing from a code asks only for your bib number or first name. • If you're connected to another event, the app asks before switching, and stops sharing with the old one first. • Clear messages when the organizers have turned the code off, or when the code is out of date and you need a new one from them. Also • A new app icon.
