Looking for a donated Android/IPAD tablet for VHS

VHS needs an android 2.3 > or a IPad tablet. It doesn’t need to be a good tablet. Does anyone have an older tablet that they are no longer using ?

We want to replace the paper wavers with a digital signature system. Less paper, less waste, searchable, and good for using for stats.

Would a blackberry playbook work?

I’ve got a Viewsonic gTablet, with a custom Android ROM on it. Works great. I can bring it down this weekend, if you think it’ll work well for VHS.

Thank you everyone,

I suspect that the Viewsonic gTablet ( @seanhagen ) and Nook Colour ( @TomKeddie ) will both work. I don’t know for sure until we install the software and try it out.

I don’t have much experience with the blackberry playbook ( @hectorh ) It might work.

Could you bring down the tablets to VHS and put them in the drop box for me?. I will test them all and see what one works the best, then report back.

Thank you !

Thank you @seanhagen for donating TWO! android tablets.

I am planing on testing out Free Document Signing App | DocuSign’s Electronic Signature App this week to see if it will work for in-person signing of the waivers at VHS.

Docusign seems to be the biggest player in this market that i can find and thats why i plan to start with them. I have never used a digital signature system before. Does anyone have any experience with docusign or a alternative company ?

As long as they’ve got an API that can tell us when someone signs, go for it.

Why is an API required?
My ordinal plan… Plan is probably too strong of a word… more like vague idea of something… was just to use this system to replace the paper waivers for guests to VHS. To reduce paper, collect stats on quantity of waivers signed. I was not planning on integrating this into Nomos.

What were you thinking ?

I was thinking that if it had an API, at some point we could use that to gather info and start learning stuff from the data ( how many new people visited? be able to correlate new visits vs sign-ups, etc ).

If it’s got an export ( CSV, Excel, whatever ), that works too, it’s just more work.

I can’t find a good app that is free (or cheap enough for my to justify) to collect liability waivers. The best i have found so far is Waiver Forever ($34 per month)

I created a good forms of the liability waiver.

I will be setting up the tablets on Tuesday.

Questions, comments, suggestions?

Google sheets has a API you can access the data via.

It looks like adobe is providing a free contract sign service

Note for later

Okay some of those features on acrobat must be new because I didn’t think it would work for us when I looked at it a month ago.

K i went through the abode app more thoroughly this time. Yes I think it does what we want in like 4 easy steps. can be setup for other signups as well. Works fine on my Nexus 7.

-The biggest inconvenienced is that you can’t just directly sign a document. You have to create a signature then post it to the document. But then you can delete the signature so it can’t be used on anything else and its still saved to the document. You have to manually export it to a PDF then save it. Dropbox is an option
