You can send push notifications to people in the app. Plan when you send it and to who you send it via the admin panel, the setup is elaborated in this article.

The push notifications home page

To find the push notifications feature within the admin panel, hover over the communication tab and select 'Push notifications' from the drop down menu.

Sending option from admin panel

Push notifications are the most direct way to communicate with your users during the event. Really effective is that you can filter who you send notifications to from the following groups:

• Push to everyone - Every registered user.

• All speakers - Every user who is assigned as a speaker to any programme item.

• All company representatives - Anyone linked to a company.

• Programme item - Anyone linked to a programme item (I.e. Users who have favourited a programme item, and speakers).

• All hosts/organisers - Every user that is set up as a host or an admin.

• Users with tag - Users with a specific tag (Choose which tags later).

Sending option from app
