About this app
Virtual Volunteer is the official parkrun timer and scanner application and it is free to download for volunteers to use at parkrun events. It is easy to use with a very simple interface. Scanner and timer data can be submitted directly to parkrun using a QR code supplied by the Run Director on the day.

Momentum comes from crawler snapshots for the tracked storefront. “Viral growth signal” means unusually fast recent rating gains; it is an indicator, not download data.
Price tracking
Price intelligence
