TL;DR

Manage Standards is where you pick the qualifying standards you follow for each swimmer. Add the ones that matter, remove the rest, and compare in one select.

What Manage Standards shows you

There are a lot of standards out there. Manage Standards keeps your app focused on the ones that matter to your swimmer: the provincial cut, the national age group times, the meet you are chasing this season.

The list is kept per swimmer. Your tracked standards come first in the Standards screen and in Compare Standards, so a minute of curation makes everything downstream quicker.

Open Manage Standards

On your phone, select More, then Time Standards, then Manage Standards. On a computer, open Time Standards in the side menu, then Manage Standards. The list belongs to the swimmer you have selected.

Review your tracked list

Under Tracked Standards, each card shows the name with its country, source, and category. Leave the category on Automatic to follow the swimmer’s age, or pick a fixed one.

Compare or remove a standard

The compare icon opens Compare Standards with that standard. The trash button stops tracking it.

Tips

Common questions

Is Manage Standards free?

Yes. Tracking standards is free with a free Gophin account, and so is Compare All, which lines a swimmer's bests against every standard you track.

Which standards should I track?

Track the sets that matter this season, such as the provincial cut, the national age group times, or the meet you are chasing. A short, focused list reads faster than every set you can find.

What happens to the rest of the app when I change my tracked list?

Your tracked standards appear first in the Standards screen and in Compare Standards. Every other standard stays available below them, so removing one never hides it for good.
