Follow a live game from another WR Score.

Watch a game another WR Score is scoring, on your own device, once the venue approves you.

Watch a game that another WR Score is scoring, on your own device: its score, clock, teams and players come to you as they change.

You need: a WR Score account signed in on this device, and the six-character code of the venue that is scoring. The venue is a second device, the one scoring the game. You cannot try this alone on one device: the venue has to press Approve.

  1. Step 1

    On the venue's device.

    1. Open About, then Linked.
    2. Press Let another WR Score follow this game, and choose how long: 2 h, 8 h or Today. The code shows there.
    3. When you ask, the venue sees your device with Asks to follow. Press Approve, or Decline.
  2. Step 2

    On your device.

    1. Open the Score from tab. On the Another WR Score row, press Follow a venue. The window is titled Follow another club's game.
    2. Type the venue's six characters and press Ask to follow. The window says Waiting for the venue to approve this device. Asking to follow needs the internet: the request and the approval go through Well Run. On the same network the numbers themselves then go straight across.
    3. The venue's device has to press Approve. Until it does, nothing comes to you.
    4. When the venue approves, Another WR Score becomes the game's source. The score, the clock, the teams, their colours and logos, and the players come in as the venue scores them.
    5. Check the line under the source. It says how the link runs: Local (on the same network, straight from the venue's device) or Through the cloud, and how far behind the venue it is (for example 120 ms behind). This line shows only once a follow runs, so you check it after step 4.
    6. If nothing comes from the venue for 5 seconds, the line says stale and for how long. The link joins again by itself when the venue sends again.

    To stop: press Stop following. The game stops coming to you from your side. The venue keeps scoring.

    Good to know:

    • You can start following in the middle of a game. Nothing already running on your side stops.
    • A field you gave its own source in Per field keeps that source.
    • A follow never changes anything at the venue. Your keys stay on your own device.

    If the venue says no, or the venue stops your follow, the window says so. Ask the venue for a new code.

    (plan: to confirm) Which of your tabs are locked while a follow runs depends on your plan. The Scoreboard is never locked by a follow.
