Before you start

A results import is one of the free plan's first two AI imports; Ovation Pro has no limit. An import that finds nothing to save doesn't count.

  1. Open the competition and tap its Results tab, then tap Import results.

    KAR Lawndale's Results tab, with Import results circled at the top right above the Sugar Rush card.
  2. Under SELECT FILE, tap PDF, Photo or Camera. Or tap Paste the text and paste it from the results email, or Use a link for the official results page.

    Award results, with PDF, Photo and Camera under SELECT FILE, PDF circled, and Paste the text and Use a link below.
  3. Tap Import. Choosing a file only selects it; nothing is read until you tap Import.

    The results PDF chosen, shown in a green row, and Import circled at the bottom.
  4. Wait while Ovation reads it. It usually takes 10–20 seconds.

    Reading results, with AI reading award results working through its list, and Usually takes 10–20 seconds.

Good to know

  • A whole results page is fine. Ovation only looks for your dancer's routines.
  • A PDF works best. For a photo, use good lighting and lay the sheet flat.
  • Your routines that aren't on the sheet are listed under Couldn't Find, and are not added. Add those by hand on the Results tab.
  • Awards your dancer won on their own, such as a title, are listed with their own awards.
  • A long pasted results page is imported in parts. Up to five parts, imported within an hour, count as one import.

If something goes wrong

  • If an award is missing or wrong, tap Something missing or wrong? at the end of the review list. It opens a message to us with your results attached.
  • If the import stops, tap Send this to us on the message that says so.
  • For anything else, go to Manage → Get help. A real person reads every message.
