Android Getting Started

Inosscan makes it easy to for people to check-in and check-out of your event or activity so you can ensure you have everyone back safe.

People check-in/scan at the beginning of your event and check-out/scan again when they come back. You always know how many people you are waiting to come back. They can check-in and out multiple times during your event.

All you need is a phone and some NFC Tags if you plan to use tags. You'll be scanning in a few minutes:

  1. Login to Inosscan
  2. Create your event
  3. Add or import your people
  4. Assign NFC tags and/or Send QR Codes
  5. Start scanning

Login to Inosscan

Inosscan syncs with a database online. This allows it to be multi account and multi user.

Inosscan will display the Login/Signup page when you're not logged in. Tap the Login/Signup button to get started.

Login using your desired method and you'll be prompted for an account name if it's your first time logging in.

Your account name can be anything you like. Generally it'll be your Organization name.

Add people to an event manually by selecting "Show Event Participants" from the event's page and then selecting "Select People" from it's menu. If you're downloading QR codes, you can do it now from the "Event Participants" page.
