To log a catch, select RECORD CATCH from the home screen, choose your event, PRESS ENTER & then START RECORDING.
Turn on the SAVE TO PHOTOSTREAM button on the top of the screen (green on). This enables photos to that you submit to save on your phone.
Poor phone signal can make logging a catch on the app difficult. Therefore, the app features “OFFLINE” mode. To process a catch in offline mode is the same as online. You must remember to switch back to ONLINE mode when you get solid phone signal to log your catches that are waiting in your log.
Take a clear photo using your phone camera of the fish on the measure board. Take a second photo of you holding your catch. This is referred to as a GLORY PHOTO. Once both pics are taken, head back to your app and click on the picture icon in the record catch screen. Select your photo on the measure board and then press the blue tick. This does not submit your photo, just that you would like to use this for your entry. Do the same for your GLORY PHOTO.

HOW TO GET FAMILIAR WITH YOUR SCORECARD.
Ladies it’s time to get familiar with your scorecard!!
There is a section in the app where you submit your catches called LOG, this is the basic submission to see if it’s gone through.
Your favourite and should be checked is your scorecard : This is found in the information screen of the app and it shows you the status of your fish.
If you see ACCEPTED IMAGE RECEIVED, it is the confirmation that the scores in the background have been accepted by the score checker, if it shows this and you think something isn’t correct please email tracy at tracy@infofishaustralia.com.au with a screenshot and the time, date, fish species, size and the information you need to give her
If you see SUBMITTED IMAGE RECEIVED, it means the data & image have been received but the score checker is yet to verify and accept your entry. This simply means the data is to be checked. So if you have submitted a fish for someone else and it shows here or your own fish it’s still pending in the cue.
If you see SUBMITTED IMAGE NOT RECEIVED, it means the data has been received but your photo hasn’t, you will need to check your mobile reception and head back into the log screen or contact us to check for you if unsure.
SIDE NOTE : the scorecard will only show the entries that’s currently under the app users name so if you are submitting for someone else once they are scorechecked they will drop out of your scorecard.
