Submitting quiz results to preset email addresses

I was wondering if there is a way that I can email the results from a quiz to preset email addresses

Not easily. The current version posts the results to a URL on our servers. The upcoming v1.5 allows you to change this URL in your control panel so you can send the results to your webserver. Naturally, you'll need to create a web-script using .PHP or another language to recieve the results and process them / store them however you want. It also supports allowing the user to Email the results, you can pre-fill the email-to-address. The users will ALWAYS have to actually send the email, you cannot send an email behind-the-scenes on devices - it's a bad idea anyway. You could prepare you backend-script to send an email when it recieves the results, store the results in a database, etc. To enable this functionality in the current version, have a look at ScoreboardViewController.m in the /Screen_Quiz directory. It will take some understanding but you could change the URL the info is being sent to there. I would wait until the new version is released. I'de bet it will be available faster than you could make the changes - wink.
