About this app

Please Note: This App will only work if your Award is using Online Record Book. If you are using any other system (such as eDofE) please speak to your Award Unit or National Office.

This application was developed by The Duke of Edinburgh's International Award Foundation as a simple and fast tool to assist Award participants in completing their Award, anytime anywhere.

The participant is able to manage their Award progress using the App. They can set up activities, create logs for their progress and also send their Award sections to their Assessor and Award Leader for completion.

Your Award must be using the latest version of the Online Record Book system (sometimes known as "ORB Next Generation") and have a valid participant login to the system in order to be able to use this App.

Ratings and reviews

This app in one of the best of all I can choose any activity I want to do and even record them and even access them much easier

App not responding. I recently had to uninstall it because of a problem on my phone. When I reinstalled it, it would not let me log in to my existing account. Tried making a new one but it wouldn't get any further than the 2nd slide. I retried after a couple of weeks but now the app just keeps stopping. Help! I tried contacting my award leader too about the problem to which she only said yo retry afterwards. All in vain.

I have had lots of problems uploading photos in the app. Similar to another review, it says the app doesn't have permission to upload photos even though there are no app restrictions and all permissions are granted. Please help me with this - it is very frustrating, especially considering I was delayed in registering by an issue created by my award leader and time is of the essence...
