The Angling LIVE App provides news, real time event leader boards and a secure login area for competitors to upload fish captures during events. These fish entries are sent to an admin panel for event organisers to ‘Approve' or ‘Reject' the fish according to event rules. All planned events for the current year can be viewed using the Scheduled tab. When an event goes live, all relevant information will be displayed under the LIVE tab. This includes competitor login areas. Login details for each event will be supplied by the match organisers. At no point will competitors be asked to login via any other part of the App. Angling LIVE provides a service and all event discrepancies are the responsibility of the organisers. Each competitor must have a device capable of downloading the Angling LIVE App and a source of mobile data signal throughout the event. For certain events, the device must be setup to allow Angling LIVE to access their GPS. This will be published by the event organisers on registration.
