Frequently asked questions

The Scav App is an all-in-one scavenger hunt app for the 21st century. It lets you create hunts, assign tasks, compete with friends, earn points, climb leaderboards, and level up through real-world challenges.

Users can create or join a scavenger hunt, complete assigned tasks, submit proof, and earn points. Tasks can include photos, videos, check-ins, written responses, or other challenges depending on how the hunt is designed.

You must be 18 years or older to use The Scav App. By creating an account or participating in a hunt, you confirm that you are at least 18.

Yes. Users can create their own scavenger hunts, add tasks, assign point values, invite friends, manage teams, and track progress.

You can create tasks like photo challenges, video submissions, trivia questions, location check-ins, team missions, or custom challenges. Tasks should always be safe, legal, respectful, and appropriate.

Tasks may not involve trespassing, vandalism, harassment, dangerous stunts, illegal activity, violence, discrimination, privacy violations, or anything that could put someone at risk. No amount of points is worth getting hurt or breaking the law.

Each task can be assigned a point value. When a player or team completes a task and the submission is approved, those points are added to their score. Points help determine rankings, leaderboard position, and level progress.
