The Race Entry app is designed to give mobile access to event directors with active accounts in the Race Entry online platform. Users can log into the app, see a list of all of their events, and access management features for specific events. Each event has a dashboard to view event participants, booth purchases, and volunteers. Participants, booth purchases, and volunteers can be scanned as present with a QR scanner and their confirmation QR code. They can also be manually marked as checked-in or checked-out. Participant details involving form question responses are also displayed if applicable to the event. Participants for race day will also be able to be assigned bibs through the app and any bibs assigned through the online system will be displayed on the app as well.
