Download the Mobile Timing App
The RaceDay Mobile Timing App is ideal for manually timing smaller endurance or remote events such as Ultra distances, track and field, cross country, running or cycling events and water events. Timers can also use it at large events as a backup or verification recording at milestones along the course and integrate with scoring software by using DropBox or by emailing the data to access as needed. Integrated photo capturing is done directly from the app.

Key Features for the RaceDay Mobile Timing App
Technology from the RaceDay Mobile Timing App
Results
Through the app’s Chute and Finish Line recording options, timers are able to record the order of finishers based on bib number and log time stamps of finishers. Timers can integrate with RunSigup’s results to have scored results displayed real-time on an event web page. By making use of RunSignup Results Timers can set up result divisions so that the app can produce complete results with features like age group place for all participants quickly and easily.
The mobile timing app is built to efficiently time the results for lots of endurance events, including ultra marathons.

Connectivity
The RaceDay Mobile Timing App supports off-line situations with finish times recorded locally on the app and then uploaded and merged with the live race once Internet connections are re-established. This is especially helpful for remote events like ultra and trail courses.
Backup Mode
Timers can use the Backup Timer mode when the app is being used as a backup timing tool – similar to Time Machine’s approach – in conjunction with official timing equipment and scoring software such as RaceDay Scoring. Using this mode records the data within the app on the backend for the timer without publicly publishing the data. In addition to the phone or tablet’s keyboard, the app can be used in conjunction with bluetooth tactile keyboards, such as Sunreed Bluetooth Numpad with LCD display, for more efficient bib entry


Photo Capture Integration
The RaceDay Mobile Timing App now includes Photo Capture integration, allowing timers to automatically associate images with participant timestamps. This feature enhances verification and accuracy by providing a visual backup of recorded times. Photos are stored within the app and can be reviewed alongside timing data for improved result validation. Participants can also view their photos directly on their results page, adding an engaging and personalized race experience.
