The Cat Show App is a cross-platform app (running on Android as well as on iOS) that provides Exhibitors, Show Managers, Ring Clerks and Master Clerks at a TICA show a much richer experience.
For TICA exhibitors
- An electronic Show Catalog
- Automatic checks - no more mechanical mistakes (you can let the app enforce the show mechanics so that you cannot make mistakes)
- Select cats for which you want to receive notifications when they are being called to a ring, or when finals are starting
- You can check the displays in the show hall which will give you a real-time view of what is going on in the rings (or, you can watch it in your browser/on your phone!)
- You can log in using your TOES account
- Automatically receive the results from the rings as the show is progressing (no need to write down the results yourself)
- Get access to a marked catalog after the show
- Secure checking by the master clerk
For the ring clerks
- Log in using your TOES account, and automatically get "ring clerk" features in those rings where you are clerking
- If you are not assigned as a ring clerk in TOES, you can still get the special privileges using a ring clerk access code that the show manager can provide for your ring
- see the absentee and transfer lists
- Call cats to the rings directly from your app (this will send notifications to the exhibitors)
- mark the ring results in the app (mechanical checks are enforced here by the app)
- automatically receive transfers from other rings/from the master clerk
- automatically uploads your ring results to the master catalog for checking by the master clerk
- page exhibitors to the ring for your finals
For the master clerk
- Log in using your TOES account, and automatically get "master clerk" features in those rings where you are clerking
- Mark absentees
- Register transfers
- Automatically propagate absentees and transfers to the ring clerks
- Automatically receive results from the rings
- Lock results after comparing them with the yellow pages from the judge
- Add or update entries (this will also synchronize with TOES, so the marked catalog will be perfectly aligned)
- Real-time show scoring
- Real-time dashboard for the show
For the clubs
- have a fully electronic, and real-time experience in your show hall
- have the ability to display real-time dashboards on screens/TVs/browsers
- provides an excellent platform for the advertisers/vendors to get exposure for their products
- can be used free of charge (if you don't use it you will actually be charged a fee to compensate for missed advertisement opportunity)
- have an error-free master catalog
- have a marked catalog after the show
- have access to real-time show scoring (best of the best)
For visitors
- have access to the real-time dashboard that makes sure you don't miss out on any of the events taking place in the show hall
- have an overview of which kittens and cats are in the show hall
- have a clear view of vendors/advertisers at the show
- and much more to follow in the dedicated visitor app later this year...
