Dear HarmonySite administrator,
Well, it's been a long time coming, but the functionality that everyone's been waiting for is now in the App...
- View your group's Event Calendar
- Notify members about events using push notifications
- Indicate your availability for any event via the App with one click
If you've been holding off on getting the App for your group, waiting for it to be fully useful, wait no longer! Reply to this email and I'll enable the App for your group. Pricing is here: https://www.harmonysite.com/pricing (in the "Optional Extras" section).
The new "Event Calendar screen presents your group's calendar two ways (above): In "calendar" view and in "list" view (list view shows upcoming events only).
All details of each event are shown, including a Google Map, and attachments. The event's program will be supported in a future release (soon).
AVAILABILITY
Members can indicate their availability for any event (as long as that event has attendance/availability tracking enabled). They can do that from each event's screen, or event from the "List View", where they can see ALL upcoming events - and their availability - at a glance...
PUSH NOTIFICATIONS
As with songs, documents and announcements, you can now send push notifications about an event from the website to all members...
When the notification arrives on the phone, tapping the notification will take you straight to the event, where you can view all details, indicate your availability, etc.
PUSH NOTIFICATIONS ABOUT MEMBERS INDICATING THEIR AVAILABILITY
There's a feature in HarmonySite, not used a lot, where the system can notify the event coordinator whenever any member indicates their availability for an event. The notification would go out via email, and could optionally also be sent via SMS text message. There's now an option for such notifications to be sent via "push notification" to the App (for the event coordinator only)...
If you would like the App enabled for your group, please reply to this email, or send to admin@harmonysite.com
If you ever experience an issue (bug, fault, etc) with the App, please email all the details to the App's developer Chris: chris@harmonysite.com
Enjoy!
In harmony,
