From first face-off
to final report.

Do the setup while you have a connection. A few minutes here means fewer taps when the game gets busy.

1. Sign in and make yourself at home.

   Use the account supplied by your team owner. Open Account → Change password to replace an initial password, or try a separate practice game first.

2. Create your team and roster.

   Choose Create team, enter a team name and season, then open Roster → Add player. Jersey numbers make player selection quick.

3. Set up the game.

   From Games → New game or Set up a game, enter the opponent, period length, date, and home/away setting. Choose Create game.

4. Give each recorder a duty.

   The creator initially holds every duty. Use the cloud icon and Sync now to upload the new team and game. If others are helping, add their accounts through Account → Team access, then use Assign recorders in the game. See the five duties.

5. Sync, select the lineup, then start.

   Have each recorder sign in and sync on their own device. The timekeeper taps the starting players under On the ice, then chooses Start clock when play begins.

6. Finish, check, and share.

   Choose Finish game → Finalize, review the timeline and statistics, sync every recorder’s device, and export the game report.

Use the team selector on the home screen to switch teams. The four main views are Overview, Games, Roster, and Season.

Build a roster you can recognize at a glance

In Roster, choose Add player. Enter the Jersey number, optionally a player name, and select Forward, Defence, or Goalie. Tap an existing player to edit them, then choose Save player.

The Active roster switch on an existing player controls whether they appear in the active lineup choices. Deactivating a player keeps their past recorded statistics.

Create a game before recording

Choose New game and check Opponent, Period length (minutes), the game date, and We are the home team. You can find the game again under Games or use Open game from the overview.

Owners and people with Recorder access can add or edit players and create games. People with View only access can follow the team without recording changes.

Each game has five duties. Assign different people to different duties, or give everything to one person. Each duty has one assigned recorder.

Assign or hand over a duty

The team owner opens Assign recorders or the Recording assignments icon, chooses a person for each duty, then selects Save assignments. Assign everything to me fills all five choices at once.

Use separate accounts for separate people. Team access and the recording-assignment screen need a connection. Connect and sync all devices before a handover so everyone sees the current assignments and lineup. An edit queued under an old assignment may be rejected after a duty changes.

The scoreboard counts down the period. Player ice time counts the playing time recorded while their shift is active. Stoppages do not add ice time.

Start, stop, and correct

• Start clock begins play; Stop clock pauses it.
• Set clock pauses the clock and changes the displayed minutes and seconds. Press Start clock again when play resumes.
• When the clock reaches zero, open shifts close. Next period resets a full, paused period; select the lineup again.

Track substitutions with jersey taps

Under On the ice, tap a player’s tile to open or close their shift. Take the departing player off, then add the replacement. You can select up to six skaters and one goalie; remove the current goalie before selecting another. Changes happen one player at a time; there are no saved lines, one-tap line changes, or past-shift editor.

During a stoppage, choose the players who will take the next face-off while the clock is paused. Their ice time starts accumulating when you restart the clock.

1. In the game’s Rink view, select Shot on goal, Goal, Missed shot, Blocked shot, Face-off, Penalty, or Icing.
2. Tap where it happened on the rink. You can also use the Record… button when you do not need a location.
3. Choose Our team or Opponent, add the relevant details, check the period and time, then choose Save event.

Our team strength always describes your team: even strength, power play, or short-handed. Set it for the play yourself; recording a penalty does not start a penalty timer or change strength or the lineup automatically.

For your player’s face-off percentage, keep Our team selected, choose your face-off player, and switch Our team won the face-off off for a loss. Opponent events do not track named opponent players.

The event time is captured when you open the form, so filling in the details does not keep moving its timestamp. Correct Period and Time remaining (m:ss) if you are entering a play late or another device’s clock is delayed.

Read the shot map

The rink’s OUR ATTACK arrow shows the displayed attacking direction. Our team and opponent use separate marker colors; a ring and G identify a goal. The live rink shows the current period, while Statistics includes a map of all periods at the recorded positions.

Fix a mistake without recording it twice

Open Timeline and tap an event to correct it, then choose Save correction. Use its remove icon to delete it. Undo last event removes the last event in one of your currently assigned duties, even if someone else recorded it before a handover. The brief Undo action after a removal restores it. Correcting and deleting still follow the current duty assignments.

An existing event’s rink location cannot be changed in the correction form. Before finalizing the game, remove and re-record a play if its location is wrong.

Sign in and sync your devices before going offline, then stay signed in. SlotIQ saves changes on the recording device and queues them for upload. Separate recorders can save independent plays offline and send them when a connection returns.

Check what has reached the team

Open the cloud icon, labelled Sync & saved changes on the home screen or Sync status in a game. The Saved & synced dialog shows changes waiting to upload, any error, and Sync now. After reconnecting, sync and check that no changes or conflicts remain on every recorder’s device.

Resolve a conflict deliberately

A conflict can happen when the same saved record changes on different devices or your permission changes before an upload. Open Review sync conflicts or the cloud icon and read the message.

Use server version

Choose the version already saved for the team and discard this queued edit for that record. Check with the other recorder first if needed.

Retry my edit

Try your local edit again against the current record. Current permissions still apply; it may need review again.

The conflict dialog does not provide a side-by-side comparison of every field. Coordinate with the other recorder before choosing which version to keep.

Keep the original device until everything is synced

Do not uninstall the app or clear browser/site data to fix a sync problem: that can remove the only copy of unsynced work. Signing out preserves the account’s pending work for its next sign-in on the same device. If the server confirms that your session is no longer authorized, SlotIQ returns to sign-in and hides the account’s data. Sign in to the same account to recover its saved games and pending changes. A lost internet connection alone does not sign you out or stop offline recording.

If a successful sync confirms that you no longer belong to a team, that team is hidden on this device. If your access changes to View only, the team stays visible but you cannot record. In either case, queued edits are kept and paused instead of uploaded. Restored recording access allows pending edits to sync again; changes already marked as conflicts may still need review.

After the browser security update, you may need to sign in once again. Your saved games, pending changes, and appearance preferences stay on the device. Browser sign-in always connects to this website’s server; native apps also offer Server settings.

Native Android storage is designed for offline recording. Browser offline reload, installation, and storage retention depend on the browser and device; test your setup before relying on it at a rink. If older server data is restored, preserve newer device records and ask the team administrator to reconcile them.

Open a game’s Statistics view for team totals, player statistics, and the full shot map. The home screen’s Season view totals final games only for the selected team and season; a game still in progress is not included.

Export a game report

Use the game’s Print or share game report icon, or the Export report icon in Statistics. SlotIQ generates a PDF with the score, player statistics, shot locations, and game events. In the browser, the report downloads as a PDF; open it in your usual PDF viewer to print or share it. Native apps use the device’s print/share interface.

The report includes local data on the device that creates it. Sync all recorders first for a complete team report. If local edits are still waiting to upload, the report notes that it includes unsynced changes.

Open Account → Appearance, or choose Appearance on the sign-in screen. Electric Blue is the default.

Pick a preset, then edit individual colors if you like: app background, cards and dialogs, preferred text, buttons and accents, scoreboard, both teams’ shots, players on the ice or bench, and the rink ice and lines.

Use the hue, saturation, and brightness controls or enter a six-digit Hex color. Done closes the picker. Use Reset color for one color or Restore [preset] colors for the whole preset.

Text automatically uses a readable foreground when needed. Shot markers retain outlines and readable goal letters. PDF reports carry your selected game colors onto white paper with readable text.

SlotIQ uses private accounts. There is no public signup. Ask your team owner for access; invitation and password-reset emails are not sent automatically.

Owner

Manages team access and game recording assignments, as well as team data.

Recorder

Can add or edit roster players, create games, and record the game categories assigned to them.

View only

Can view the team’s information without making recording changes.

Bring another recorder onto the team

Select the team, then the owner opens Account → Team access. Enter Email address and choose Recorder or View only access. With Create a new account on, enter a display name and an initial password of at least 12 characters. To add an existing account, turn that switch off and use its email. Choose Add member.

Share initial credentials privately; no email is sent. Adding someone to the team does not automatically assign them a game duty. Use Assign recorders in the game afterward.

Change or recover a password

Use Account → Change password with the current password, a new password of at least 12 characters, and its confirmation. Other signed-in devices will need to sign in again; the device making the change stays signed in. If you have forgotten the password, contact the team administrator for help.

The Android APK is provided directly for personal testing; it is not a Play Store listing. A native iPhone/iPad build is planned for a later stage, after Android testing, and is not currently available.

Try this before your first real game

• Open a practice game and record a shot and a goal.
• Start and stop the clock; tap players on and off the ice.
• Sign in and create a test team and game, then close and reopen the app to check saved data and appearance. Practice recreates its sample data when you enter it.
• For multi-recorder use, test separate accounts, assignments, and syncing with a test team.
• Try your actual phone or tablet’s offline/reconnect behavior and PDF export.

For an Android update, sync first and install the newer APK over the existing app. Avoid uninstalling as an update step when local work remains unsynced.
