Updated this week

This update offers a lot customization options for your app. Let's check it out!

Features available in the admin area: Wednesday, June 16th

Webapp - Wednesday, June 16th

iOS - 3.25

Android - 3.25

Our new customisable app features!

This new feature provides you with the freedom to adjust the start screen of your hotel to your own needs as well as to prominently highlight your relevant content.
For that we've created a new section in the menu bar under "Hotel", called "App features". Here you can easily enable and disable features to be displayed on the start screen, add own menu sections and rearrange the order. Use the preview button to see how it is immediately applied in the webapp.

Example: Backoffice view top; app view bottom

What are your options? Let's take a closer look:

Option 1: Change title

Change the title of the app feature in all your available languages. For example, change the wording of the feature type activities from "Programme" to "Stay active".

Option 2: Select icon

Select from a wide range of icons to best match the feature.

Option 3: Rearrange the order

Easily change the order of the sections using drag and drop to highlight specific content of your app.

Option 4: Enable & Disable sections

If you want to exclude a certain feature, quickly disable it. These will be listed in a separate section underneath for you to quickly access, and enable again.

Please note:

  • we keep some features mandatory to ensure a smooth guest experience

  • the platform where this feature is shown cannot be changed

Option 4: Add own content to your start page

The last and maybe most exciting feature is hidden behind the dropdown menu in the top right corner where you can create your own app features! You can choose between a website to promote external content or a deeplink to position your own app content as prominently as possible to your guests.

Deeplink

  • link to a directory entry / activity / offer or folder within your app

  • select an appealing image and title

  • the link will be opened within the app

Website

  • add a link to an external website

  • select an appealing image and title

  • select if this link opens in the in-app browser or outside the app


What else is new?

Copy booking configurations for offers and activities

To save valuable time, the booking settings can now also be copied when copying activities or offers. If you don't want to copy the booking configuration of the original entry then please use the button in the upper right corner.

Delete images

Images can be deleted from the image gallery again.
