➧ Free Features Overview |

Members of teams using SwimTopia can receive push notifications from their team admins/coaches, sign up for meet entries and volunteer jobs, and view their team and athlete info for free, all season long. The Live Event/Heat Bar broadcasts what’s happening in the pool during meets in real-time, so no one ever needs to miss a swim again!
For details on each feature above, ➞ See SwimTopia Mobile App - Free Feature Details » Note: Some teams choose NOT to display relay team designations on the app. |
➧ Pro Subscription Features Overview |
|
Pro features require the use of SwimTopia's meet management system, Meet Maestro. If the host team is running the meet with SwimTopia’s Meet Maestro, the Pro subscription will provide these great meet-day features in addition to all of the features listed above:
Each feature must be made available by the meet host. For details on each feature above, ➞ See SwimTopia Mobile App - Pro Subscription Feature Details » Note: If another meet system is being used to run the meet, or the day and time of the meet have passed, and meet entries have not been merged, you will see a notice in the meet overview of the app stating the meet is not being run in Meet Maestro. If unsure what system is being used, contact your meet administrator or team admins. |
➧ Pro Subscription Details |
Terms of Service: https://www.swimtopia.com/terms-of-service/ Privacy Policy: https://www.swimtopia.com/privacy/ ➞ How to Subscribe/Renew a Pro Subscription
➞ How to Cancel/Unsubscribe from ProSwimTopia is unable to cancel a Pro subscription or issue any refunds. All cancellations and refund requests must go through either the App Store or the Google Play Store. We provide a quick link to your app subscription management tool from the Settings (wavy lines) in your app, or you can go directly to the App Store or Google Play Store. » Note: Deleting the app DOES NOT cancel your subscription.

Download and Login Options |
➧ Downloading the SwimTopia Mobile App |
|
The SwimTopia mobile app is available in the Apple App Store and Google Play Store. ➞ Mobile System Requirements:
|
➧ Logging Into Your Mobile App Account |
|
The SwimTopia mobile app is a companion app to your team's SwimTopia website. Use the same login credentials for the SwimTopia mobile app. If you forget your password, you will need to reset it from your team website (click "Need login help?" for instructions as needed):
Are you a registered member of a team that uses the SwimTopia team management solution as their team website?➞ YES - I've registered or been added manually by the team adminIf you have activated your account on your team's website by setting up a password, then all you need to do is log in to the SwimTopia mobile app using the SAME email/password that you use on your team website. ➞ See Account Activation, Login and Password Management if you need help. ➞ NO/NOT SUREGo to YOUR team website ( NOT www.swimtopia.com) and see if you can log in there, or use the "Forgot your password?" option to check. If not, then you either need to register with your team on the team website or access the meet in the SwimTopia mobile app as a Guest User. ➞ See the Guest Mode Access section below for more details. |
➧ Switch/Change Teams |
➞ Already registered on the new teamEach team has a URL address to log in to the website, but when using the SwimTopia mobile app, there is an option to select which team to view under the app settings (wavy lines in upper left). ➞ Not registered on the new teamYou need to be affiliated/registered on the team website. After completing your registration, you can change your team in the mobile app as shown above. » Note: If you do not see an option to register on your team site, reach out to the team representatives (you should find a way to contact them on the website). |
➧ Guest Access Details (for non-team members) |
(Available for meets using SwimTopia's meet management system only)» Note: If you are a registered member of a team and have activated your account, log into the app using your email/pw instead of using the Guest login. There are more options available for members than guests. If unsure, contact your team's administrator to confirm. If you upgrade to Pro as a guest and then don't see Pro features when you log into your account, see ➧ Guest Login Pro Upgrade for steps. Spectators without member accounts can follow their favorite athletes throughout the meet from anywhere using our Guest Login feature. This access is also useful for your athletes who want to keep track of their progress through the meet on their phones and do not have a login on your team site. (if you're using Meet Maestro to run the meet)
With a Pro Subscription, guest users can designate their athlete favorites, access heat sheets (if made available by the team), follow the progress of the meet if the team is using the Live Event/Heat bar, and view live results and scores. Without Pro, guests will still be able to follow along as the meet progresses if the team is using the Live Event/Heat bar, but will only see results once the meet has been completed. ➞ PRIVATE VS PUBLIC MEETSThe meet admins can enable a setting in the meet that makes the meet private, in which case, non-members will not be able to access the meet to follow along. This will be designated in the app by a lock icon next to the meet name, and when the user clicks on the meet name, a message will display: » Guest Login Users Tip: Don't log out (under the app Settings). When you log in via Guest, a "token" is associated with your access to remember your favorite athletes (Pro Users), and you can continue to see the athlete's history over time. If you log out of the app, the token is no longer associated with you to remember your favorites. The next time you try to use the app, you will have to log in as a guest again and then re-favorite. |
➧ Guest Access - Pro Upgrade |
|
If you upgrade to Pro while accessing as a guest, and then log out and access as a guest again, or log into your registered team account, the Pro subscription should be retained, as this is tied to your phone. If you are seeing the Pro banner below, the app does not recognize a subscription. Click on the blue Pro banner: The system should automatically activate the subscription again on your phone, but if you see the screen below, click "Restore Subscription" to initiate the connection. If this does not restore your subscription, log out of the app and back into your account, and/or uninstall and reinstall the app. If that doesn't work, please submit a support ticket from your settings screen and attach a screenshot of your app setting screen (under the wavy lines). For example: |
➧ Athlete Access Options |
|
Many times, older athletes want mobile app visibility into team alerts, their time history, heat sheets, live results, and more. The easiest option would be for the athlete to download the SwimTopia mobile app and log into one of their parents' accounts, but if they want their own account or the parent does not want them using their login, then there are a few options: ➞ Option 1: Add Athlete Email and Activate Account (if age 13+)Only school teams can collect emails for athletes during registration, which initiates an account activation email. Due to the Children's Online Privacy Protection Act ("COPPA"), which restricts communication directly to anyone under 13, we don't support this for Summer league configurations. Summer league team admins can add emails to athlete profiles after they have been registered, but this does not automatically send an activation email. The admins must send a password reset email or have them go to the login page to generate one to set up a password activating their account. Then they can log in to the mobile app. We highly suggest not doing this for anyone under 13, or at least unsubscribe them from receiving team communication in their profile. ➞ Option 2: Use the Guest Login Access ("Continue as Guest" button)The athlete needs to be logged into the app with a username and password associated with the team to get team alerts, but they could just go through the Guest login to receive Upcoming Swim and Live Results notifications during a meet if they have a Pro subscription. Here's more info on the Guest Mode Access » Note: In both options, if the household uses family share, they should have access to the parent's Pro subscription. This is all based on how their parent set up their phones, so we have no involvement in that part, which is managed by the app stores. If they don't, they are treated like a separate user and need their own Pro subscription. |
Settings and Team Website Access |
➧ SwimTopia Mobile Settings |
|
The mobile app Settings menu is found under the wavy lines in the upper left corner. Within your SwimTopia Mobile Settings, you have direct access to:
» Note: If you are experiencing issues, please use the Send Feedback option to provide details or tell us how we can improve. There may be a configuration or feature your team is not utilizing that is a logical reason for what you are experiencing, so we can help clarify if that is the case. |
➧ Enable Remote Troubleshooting |
|
If you experience an issue using the mobile app, you can enable remote troubleshooting. This will create a transaction log that our technical team can analyze to determine the root cause of your issue. Access your app Settings menu (wavy lines at the top), tap on Enable Remote Troubleshooting, slide the tab to the right, recreate your experience, then submit a support request and include the "Session ID." Click the "STOP" button in the recording diagnostics banner when you are done. Leaving it running could affect your performance.
|
➧ Team Website Link |
|
At this time, the app focuses on providing users with information about the family, time history, meet/event schedule, team alerts (if sent by your team), and meet-day features. It is not meant to be a mirror image of all of the information your team adds to the team website, but we do provide a quick link to your website at the top of your app when you log in under the "Visit Website" link. |
