What Badges is for

Badges prints a report for each young person in a section: the badges they've earned, how far they are with the ones they've started, and exactly which requirements are left. It reads the badge records you already keep in Online Scout Manager (OSM), so there's nothing to type in.

It shares its sign-in and group with the other Tools for Scouting apps, so if your group already uses one, sign in with the same email and your group is there.

A walkthrough of Badges.

It's free, and isn't part of the bundle: there's nothing to buy. It works for Squirrels, Beavers, Cubs, Scouts and Explorers.

Finding your way around. The menu down the side has Badge reports, with Settings and Members below. For more room, Hide the menu folds it down to a strip of icons; the button at the top of the strip brings it back. On a phone the menu is a single Menu button.
