Set up Push Notifications

If you bought the Downloadable Mobile App, you can use Alert Notifications (Push Notifications) to contact all your users with important messages about your show!

Alert notifications are used to send a notification in the mobile app with a message for a show's attendees and/or exhibitors to view. 

This is often used in conjunction with the Schedule subtab to notify attendees or exhibitors of upcoming events.

If your users have downloaded your app and enabled notifications for it, they will receive an alert on the home screen of their phone when you send out an Alert Notification.

  • You can also set an Alert Notification for later dates and times if you need to. 
  • When selecting a time to send the notification, note that all times in scheduler are set to Eastern Daylight/Standard Time (EDT/EST) by default. If your event takes place in a different time zone, please convert the times for your Notifications to release accordingly!
