Updated 28 June 2026·Reviewed 28 June 2026·2 min read
Before arrival
Open the event you joined from the Events tab. Confirm the meeting pin, start time, and any organiser messages in event chat.
Prepare your phone
- Charge above 30 percent before you travel.
- Allow camera access for QR scanning.
- Enable Event chat notifications for route changes.
QR check-in
At the venue the organiser displays a QR code. Tap Check in on the event screen and scan the newest code shown.
Scan steps
- Open the joined event detail.
- Tap Check in or Scan QR.
- Point the camera at the organiser screen, not a photo shared earlier.
- Wait for the success confirmation before you walk away.
Attendance verification
Verified attendance can unlock report credits and points. If scan fails, ask the organiser to refresh the QR session.
Common scan errors
- Wrong event QR: confirm you opened the correct listing.
- QR expired: ask the organiser to show a fresh code.
- Already used: wait while the organiser regenerates the session.
Event chat
Event chat lets organisers and volunteers coordinate before, during, and after the shift. Messages notify through the Event chat preference group.
Chat etiquette
- Keep messages short and on topic for the venue.
- Do not share personal phone numbers publicly in chat.
- Report abusive messages through trust and safety tools.
After check-in
Follow organiser instructions for zones, waste bags, and photo rules. After the event, upload after photos when the flow invites them.
Wrap up
- Thank hosts through event chat when appropriate.
- Avoid faces or licence plates unless organisers allow them.
- Leave the listing a fair rating if the app prompts you.
