Your NextGen member card is here. Open the app and your ID card is right on the home screen: photo, member number, belt and age on the front. Tap it to flip and find your QR code, school and member details on the back. Show it at the registration desk and staff can pull you up in seconds instead of spelling out your name, and it works even when the venue has no signal. Every member now has a permanent member number, printed on the card. For judges: the scoring screen now catches an unscored form before it goes in. If accuracy is still 4.0 or presentation is still 6.0 when you move on, the app stops you and points you back, so a form nobody actually scored can never reach the results. Also fixed: profile photos that were not loading on the home screen, and a cleaner home layout that puts your card first.
