App Settings

The App Settings section of your event dashboard allows you to control key aspects of the attendee experience. This includes:

  • Web App โ€“ Access and share the browser-based version of your event app
  • Menu โ€“ Customize the navigation menu in the mobile app

This guide focuses on how to configure the mobile app menu, including how the default menu works, how to override it, and what customization options are available.



๐Ÿงญ Default Menu Behavior

By default, every event app includes the following menu items:

  1. Schedule
  2. Speakers
  3. Exhibitors
  4. Sponsors
  5. Maps
  6. Inbox
  7. About

When no custom configuration is made, this default menu is automatically used.


โœ๏ธ Custom Configuration Behavior

As soon as any custom menu item is added via the configuration tool:

  • The default menu is completely replaced.
  • The menu shown in the app will consist only of the items you explicitly add.
  • The configuration UI will show your custom menu items instead of remaining empty.

โš ๏ธ Be sure to include all desired functionality manually if overriding the default. Items like "Inbox" or "Schedule" are not preserved unless added.


๐Ÿท Custom Labels

Each menu item supports a custom label, allowing you to rename items to better suit your event's branding or terminology.

Examples:

  • "Schedule" can be renamed to "Agenda"
  • "Speakers" could become "Presenters"
  • "Vendors" could named "Exhibitors"
  • "Inbox" could be labeled "Messages"

These custom labels appear in the appโ€™s navigation in place of the default names.


โœ… Available Menu Options

When customizing, you can add any combination of the following items:

Menu Item Description
Web Page Link to an external URL
Speakers List of session or keynote speakers
Vendors Directory of event vendors or exhibitors
Sponsors List of event sponsors
About Description of the event or organization
Tracks Grouping of sessions into themed tracks
Schedule Full event agenda with sessions and times
Maps Interactive or static event floor plans
Text Custom rich-text content created in a WYSIWYG editor
Feed External RSS feed embedded in the app
Inbox Displays push notification history sent to attendees

๐Ÿ’ก Tips

  • Order matters: Menu items appear in the order you add them.
  • Start with intention: Once you add a single item, the default set is gone.
  • Re-add key items: If you rely on features like the schedule or inbox, make sure to include them in your custom menu.
  • Rename freely: Use custom labels to align navigation with your event's tone and language.

๐Ÿงผ Restoring Defaults

To return to the default menu:

  • Remove all custom menu items from the configuration tool.
  • The default menu will reappear automatically.
