Resources for Your Getting to Know You Express

Below you will find everything you need to help you get started with your activity, including your step-by-step app instructions, challenge list, and FAQs.

ACTIVITY & PHONE REQUIREMENTS

Your Activity:

To get started on the day of the activity, each person will need to download the free Outback Team Building app onto their smartphone. Once signed into the app, have your players search for the Activity Name and join using the Entry Code provided to you in your welcome email. Remember not to give this information out prior to your activity day!

Challenges can be completed in any order and are worth different point values, so players will need to strategize to complete as many as possible within the time limit you have given. Each player’s score will appear on the Leaderboard, and pictures and videos they submit will appear on the Submissions page. You can view the action as it occurs either on your phone, or by using the links provided in your welcome email.

Phone Requirements:

  • One fully-charged iPhone or Android device with a data plan or Wi-Fi connection per player
  • Minimum operating system: Apple iOS 9.0 or Android OS v5.0
  • Recommended available memory: at least 400 MB
  • Each player must log into their Apple App Store or Google Play Store account to download the free app

Note: We recommend closing all other applications and turning Bluetooth off to help save battery life during the activity.

STARTING YOUR ACTIVITY

Allow around 15 minutes at the start of the activity to brief your group.

  1. Ensure you are in an area with good Wi-Fi/data and have each person download, and sign into the app. You can walk participants through it step-by-step as a group, or give each player a printed copy of the App Instructions.
  2. Once everyone has signed into the app and you are ready to begin, provide each player with the Activity Name and Entry Code that were provided in your welcome email. Only give away this information when you’re ready to start.

To track the progress of the activity and your players, use the Leaderboard and Submissions links provided to you in your confirmation email. Or, if you are using your phone, you can track the progress through the Leaderboard and Submissions tabs found on the activity’s main menu.

CONCLUDING YOUR ACTIVITY

Have your players meet at a designated time and/or location to ensure they are no longer submitting challenges. This is a key step, as your app will not automatically shut off at the end of your event.

  1. Ensure you end in a location with good Wi-Fi/data signal so the submitted challenges have a chance to finish loading into the app.
    • We suggest giving the app about five minutes to completely download all submissions
  2. Refresh your Leaderboard to see the final scores for each player.
    • If using the link found in your introductory email, click the refresh button on the web browser
    • If using your phone, drag the screen down to refresh
  3. Meeting in a location with a computer and projector? Present your teams photos and videos by using the Slideshow link and entry code provided in your email
  4. Download your media by following the Media Download Instructions, and enjoy the hilarious challenge videos and photos submitted by your players.
