Help! I can’t log in on my mobile device! 

There are a few reasons you may not be able to log in. Here are the most common reasons the mobile app will not behave: 

  • To keep your data safe, Smartabase needs a secure connection. Older and free wifi networks may not be secure. Turn off wifi and enable cellular data for the app to check if this is the problem. 
  • Make sure you are using the Smartabase Athlete App, not the generic Smartabase App, Smartabase SmartSpeed App, Smartabase Kiosk App, etc. 
  • Make sure you entered the correct url https://hpsnz.smartabase.com/ams 
  • A common typo here is adding a blank space after the …/ams_. Don’t do that! 
  • Check your username and password are correct. Both are case sensitive 
  • Make sure your mobile device is running the most recent OS. If not, update your device and restart your device 
  • Make sure your Smartabase Athlete app is the most recent version. If not, update your app and restart your device. 
  • Lastly, go old school, uninstall the Smartabase app and then reinstall it. This way, you are running the most recent OS on a fresh install of the most recent Smartabase app version
