Filled full of thoughtful usability features, the Badge Requirements view allows you :

"Members and parents need never wonder where each badge goes on the jumper or shirt, with the help of the unique interactive badge positioning guide." NOT TRUE as it still has the old badge placement diagrams. I can't raise this with them as the support email address is no longer active.

Useless for two children. I have one Beaver and one Cub but if you tick in one section it automatically comes up in the other one also. Two very annoyed boys!

Q70%
by Q####:

I really like this app and it is hardly to have, but it would be so much better if next to the badge requirements there was a tick box to show what the child has done/working on, and another tick box overall to be able to tick off completed badges. Is there any chance of adding these please?

C70%
by C####:

A useful tool but there have been further badge updates and also the new badge placement picture all need updating!! Things should be reviewed a lot quicker than it currently is

Q70%
by Q####:

Could do with a tick section and i have 3 children 2 in scouts one in beavers so woukd need to be able to tick all of their badges. Also could do with other information not worth paying for

B70%

Very disappointed that the Beavers badge positioning/images still updated a year after my son joined.

K70%

Great information, new Beaver badge activity not on list. Would be great if you could tick/highlight which badges or elements have been achieved.

PLEASE UPDATE BADGE PLACEMENT SECTION! This section still contains the old badges and needs to be updated according to the new badge scheme.

It's a good and helpful app but the badges on it are now outdated because of the new badges so needs updating.

It's good but it needs the ability to record 2 kids badges on it and also the latest badges on it.....

Needs updating. Otherwise an ok app. If updated would be an awsome app.

Z70%
by Z####:

It's disappointing to have a paid app from The Scout Association that isn't even upto date with all the badges.

I went to this today to find the adult uniform shirt and where to put badges - sadly it was missing

The update took a while but it's back to being a great app. One of the most used apps on my phone at the moment!

As a Cub leader this is really handy for coming up with ideas for activities to complete badges etc.... The progress checker is good as you can see your progress on the badge list. The SA has brought out a number of New badges for all ssections, I am yet to see these appear as part of this app but, other than that, can't fault this app at all and recommend it 100%.

Disappointing in lack updates and I was hoping to find a way to track my daughter whilst they are working on badge so I can tick it off when she completes something. So she can see her progress.

When will this PAID app be updated to reflect the changes now in place? Not happy I paid for something that is never updated :/ this could be an amazing tool

Finally the new badge update! This is a must have tool for scout leaders in all sections. I use it almost every week. Placement map still has old style challenge badges but that's just one small detail. It's the badge criteria that's important.

by N####:

At long last new badges have been implemented and ridiculous licencing system that made it unusable without a signal has been fixed. I've only given it 3 stars as time to fix a simple problem meant I have stopped using it, and implemented something different in Microsoft one note. Badges should have been done in weeks not 7months.

L70%
by L####:

Most problems sorted, seems to deliver exactly what I need without fuss! Back to being an extremely useful app! One big problem remaining is the badge placement still features the old badges. 5 stars when that's fixed!

N70%
by N####:

I paid for this specifically for the badge positioning, but it does NOT show all badges. Don't waste your money if this is what you are after!!

N70%
by N####:

Very slow to be updated. Badge position diagrams and branding are out of date. Poor quality, not worth buying. The developers should be ashamed of charging for a poor quality app that doesn't contain any information not publicly available.

by N####:

This is an excellent app again now it has been updated. Would have no hesitation reccomending it to my parents and scouts.

R70%
by R####:

Really good scouting app. Could be better if a section could be added for child to record own progress through time from beavers onwards, with badge gained. If that was part of it would definitely recommend to my group.

N70%
by N####:

Badge requirements are there, for scouts and leaders. Uniform graphic is still the old style. Badge selection menu or screen too long and small lettered. Still I use it often enough.

N70%
by N####:

Its disapponting that the new IEV requirements do not appear in any of the three awards, no mention of young leader training either

C70%
by C####:

When it's kept up to date it's a brilliant

Ridiculously slow to get the new badges in. OSM updated within about 24 hours.

Please update badge placement graphic.

P70%
by P####:

This is a woeful implementation, for the three major explorer and network awards a large amount of information is missing from the badge requirements, the Young Leader's award and mission badges are not even mentioned.

Otherwise excellent thank you

The new badges are on there.... Woo. But the uniform and badge locations needs updating and the brand is now out of date too. We as android are always left months behind iPhone users
