EventFlows is an app to help event holders by providing fast and easy ways for participants to hold an event check-in. Three ways to check in your participants: 1. Bar-code Check-in You can print bar-codes on participants' tickets, record these codes in this app, and then scan the code on the tickets when checking participants in. 2. NFC Check-in If your device supports the NFC feature (please refer to the Apple Website for your device capabilities,) you can embed NFC chips (those compatible with CoreNFC framework) in participants' tickets, and use the supported devices and this app to check your participants in with NFC!
