Contact scan

Attendees scanning each other's codes to swap details.

What it is

The attendee-to-attendee exchange: scan a code, keep the contact. Not booth lead capture, which is a separate module in the exhibitor portal.

When to use it

It is what people do at events. Turning it on is a five-minute decision with a large effect on how the app feels.

Step by step

  1. 1

    Turn it onNetworking → Contact Scan

    Choose which fields are exchanged.

  2. 2

    Browse a contact wallet

    The attendee's Contact Scan screen shows up to 30 cards at a time. Choose Older contacts for the next page, Newest contacts to return to the beginning, or use the browser's Back button to revisit a page. Enter a name, company, contact detail or enabled custom-field value and press Go to search the whole wallet. Clear search returns to the newest contacts.

  3. 3

    Look at the report

    How much networking actually happened — a number sponsors ask for.

When it goes wrong

Every one of these has happened to someone. Symptom first, because that is what you will have.

Networking is not on the bar of appsgotcha

What you see: The steps say Networking → and there is no Networking icon to click.
Why: It is an add-on, and add-ons are not on the bar of apps until you add them, or until you have opened them often enough that the bar adds them by itself — so an event that does none of this is not carrying three icons for it.
Fix: Click Apps at the end of the bar of apps on the left and click Networking; click Add beside it to keep it on your bar. It is a per-person view preference, not a setting for the event.
