MKSglitz Posted April 8, 2022 Report Share Posted April 8, 2022 Trying to prepare for a Binax Covid test. I created an account for myself in the Navica App. Can I add my spouse to the same account by adding his name to my profile or must he have a totally separate account? He has no cell phone. I see that I can access each of our tests results separately if I just add his name. We are only using my cell phone to connect to a proctor. Another question please, if we are only using my cell phone and my test is completed and I receive my results from the proctor, do we have to end that session and re-establish a connection to another proctor to have his test monitored? We are a 75 year old couple and this is very confusing for us. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reigert2008 Posted April 8, 2022 Report Share Posted April 8, 2022 It’s best for each adult to have their own account and the name on the account must match the name on the ID.. when you do the testing they want to make sure that the account logged in is owned by the person taking the test. it could be different for children,but I do not have that information ChessE4 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smokeybandit Posted April 9, 2022 Report Share Posted April 9, 2022 Adults need separate accounts, but you can use the same cell phone for both tests. And yes you'll have to get a new proctor for the next test. But at that point you just follow the same steps you did for person #1. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cruiser79 Posted April 12, 2022 Report Share Posted April 12, 2022 I had both my husband and myself on the same account and had no issues. We tested recently on March 31st. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just looked into my NAVICA account profile and it only gives me the option of putting in my first and last name. My passport has my middle name included. Does that make a difference? My first name and last name in NAVICA is correct though, matches my Passport except it excludes my middle name. I may be over thinking this!

The proctor just asked if this discrepancy was OK, I said yes. I had no issues at the port. Moby Dick 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ched03 Posted April 30, 2022 Report Share Posted April 30, 2022 So if we have to have separate accounts for adults, how does that work when we have to show results at the port? Do we have to log in and out of app for each adult to show the results? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When I did my test in January, the proctor would not let me continue because my middle name wasn't on my account. I had to hang up & go to my account and add my middle name on the same line as my first name, thus matching my passport. Moby Dick 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alternatively, you could take a screen shot of the results and then just page through them from your gallery. I'd still print them out though, in case there's an electronics or battery failure. I would not rely on having to log into the app in case cell service is funky and you can't get into it. KJ777 and RWDW1204 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then you can just show the pictures. Personally, I print my results-as I like to have them in hand, just in case my phone craps out-I'm one of those "you never know" and I also have a "magnetic personality" where things that are computer related tend to not work when needed. Paper has never let me down. There was a woman on my cruise in the fall who could not access her account on her Ipad because it had no "cellular service" and she had no wifi to connect to. She could not recall her login info for her account,(it was "autoconnect on her Ipad and the passwords were written down at home so she couldn't borrow someone's phone to log in. She had to use the outside vendor pier testing-thankfully available-and pay $150 for not being "better prepared". Lesson, screen shot, print, write down passwords or some other format to have with you when you travel-"just in case". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smokeybandit Posted April 30, 2022 Report Share Posted April 30, 2022 You'll get sent an email with test results. These are much more suitable for printing as they feel much more "official" than what's on the website/app Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RWDW1204 Posted April 30, 2022 Report Share Posted April 30, 2022 Agree with @SpeedNoodles, @Pattycruise, @smokeybandit and others who suggest printing out your results. Seems to make it easier for port clerks too. KristiZ and Okgladgal 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
