Notifications
Notifications are received in the dust app if the user has accepted to receive push notifications. Notifications require cell network connectivity, so this may not be suitable during the event if you lack cell coverage, but can be used year round as well.
Notifications are great when:
- Dates of the event are announced
- Tickets go on sale
- Ticket tiers sell out
- There are changes to times for a burn
- Announcing theme camp, art and event deadlines
- When requesting volunteer signups
- For post event surveys
Sending Notifications
You can send a message out to all users by logging into dust as an admin:
- Click on the
Messages
button on the home page - Enter the message title and description
- Click
Send
when you are ready to send to all users
Notifications for a particular regional will be sent to a user only if they have opened your regional in the dust app and accepted the permission for push notifications.
