For people doing the test for the first time: Log into the Emed site if you bought the kits thru Emed. You will log into the Navica app thru there-otherwise, you get bounced out. Know where the camera is on your device and how to use it as you must show the proctor the bar code of your test kit. These two steps will make the process much faster! 

Yes...that was the confusing part when we took our tests last night.  You have to start at Emed.  We have tape over all of our device cameras, so once we remembered that ...and allowed permissions for the cameras and mics...the process was very simple.  Results were pushed to the app and email in less than 5 minutes.  The entire process took less than 30 minutes.  I hope we didn't do this too early though.  Results posted at 5:05 PM Friday evening for a 1:20 PM Sunday boarding.  Less than 48 hours.  We are brining along extra tests (that will expire before our Jan Hawaii cruise) just in case.

Hi there, It is 2 days. Not 48 hours.

Does each adult need to own a smartphone to store the result? My wife doesn't have one.

Nope. But you each need a Navica account. So just log in for her using her email and do the test and then log in for you with your email.

 

Also, take screen shots on your phone of your test result QR code page. That way whether or not you even have phone service, you still have a copy of your test results.
