Re: Scouting App Development

Or team had an app for android last year and and ended up running into the problem of transferring data sheet to the fact that we couldn't use Bluetooth and the tablets had no connection to the internet. To get around this we had to convert the data into a QR code and then scanned it into a master tablet that then sent all the data to a computer to be processed. That being said we had very old tablets running android 3.0 if you iPads are new entity l enough you may be able to use NFC communication. I don't know if apple allows developers to access this feature though.
