Enter scores (Judge's Companion)

The simple way judges enter scores during competition, plus the optional FIG panel setup.

The Judges Companion app is how most scoring happens on competition day. Out of the box it is simple: open the app, pick a gymnast, and enter two numbers - the final score and the start value. Several judges can share one tablet and take turns. You do not need to set up judge profiles or assign judges to apparatus.

Prerequisites

• The Judges Companion app is installed on the device (iPhone, Android, or a web browser), or you have the meet open in the app.

• Your session has gymnasts. That is it - no judge profiles required.

Enter a score (the simple way)

1. Open the Judges Companion app and open your meet. If the organizer gave you a QR code you can scan it; otherwise log in and pick the meet.

2. Choose your rotation and apparatus.

3. Tap a gymnast to open the score entry screen.

4. Enter the final score and the start value. Add any bonus if your meet uses one.

5. Tap Review score to open the confirmation screen, check the numbers, then tap Finalize Score to submit.

That is the whole loop. Hand the tablet to the next judge, or move to the next gymnast. Scores flow to the leaderboard in real time. If you made a mistake, you can revoke the score and re-enter it.

Change how you enter scores

By default you enter the final score and a single start value. If your panel works differently, each judge can change their own format in Judge Setup - for example, entering individual deductions from 10.0, or a separate D score with bonuses split out. See Score entry modes for the four formats and worked examples.

Second vault

For vault events with two attempts:

1. Enter and submit the first vault score as normal.

2. Tap Enter Score to enter the second attempt.

3. Enter the second vault's scores, then submit.

Both vaults are tracked together. See Handle vault scoring for how the system decides which score counts toward all-around.

Advanced: FIG multi-judge panel

For a formal FIG competition you can run a full panel, with each judge on their own device entering only their part of the score. This needs judge profiles and apparatus assignments, and each judge selects their role (D1, E1 through E7, or VR) when they sign in.

• D1 (Difficulty): Enter the difficulty value, neutral deductions, and any bonus. The app calculates the start value from your entries.

• E judges (E1 through E7): Enter execution deductions from 10.0. When four or more E judges score the same routine, the app removes the highest and lowest deductions and averages the rest; with three or fewer E judges, it averages all of them.

• VR (Video Recorder): Record the routine; the video links to the gymnast and apparatus automatically. The Video Recorder switch is available on the mobile app only, not on web.

See Enter scores - multiple judges (FIG) for the full panel workflow.
