Event app

Event app.Agenda, ticket and networking on every attendee’s phone.

An event app gives every attendee their agenda, ticket, speakers, venue map and the other attendees on their phone. The AirLST event app does it in your branding, in two languages, as a progressive web app with no app store download. What you change in the CMS shows up in the app instantly.

05Design and technology

Your brand on the home screen. No app store.

The event app is a progressive web app: it runs in the browser on iPhone and Android, can be added to the home screen and needs no app store approval. You set logo, colors and fonts yourself; white label means no AirLST note, and from Professional it runs on your own domain.

  • PWAOpen the link or QR code, add the app to the home screen; updates are there instantly.
  • Corporate design in self-serviceColors, logo, fonts; templates for landing page, emails and app in one consistent look.
  • Two languages includedAll content and interface elements in two languages; more languages as a premium feature.
  • Unlimited event appsA separate app for every event at no extra charge per app; only the user volume is limited.

The app knows the attendee. So the attendee decides what it shows.

The attendee list and chat are opt-ins by the attendee, not defaults. The app runs on the same platform as the guest list: hosted in Germany, roles and permissions in the backend, consent recorded on the attendee’s record.

  • Hosted in GermanyApp content and attendee data on servers in Germany, under EU data protection law.
  • GDPR-compliantProfile opt-in per attendee, chat only with consent; details in the Trust Center.
  • TISAX-assessedTISAX is the information security assessment standard of the automotive industry; AirLST has been assessed.

Example. What the backend sees is governed by the guest list’s roles and permissions.

Part of AirLST

The event app is the guest list from the attendee’s point of view.

Registration, ticket, session choices and attendance live on the same record. The app shows it to the attendee, the backend shows it to your team. That is why there is no import into the app and no export out of it.

What is an event app?

An event app is a mobile app for an event that shows attendees everything they need on their phone while the event is running: the agenda with sessions and rooms, speakers, the venue map, their own ticket, practical information like directions and FAQ, the attendee list and messages from the organizer. It replaces the printed program, the sign on the door and the reminder email, because changes reach every attendee immediately.

At AirLST, the event app is a progressive web app: it runs in the browser on iPhone and Android without an app store and can be added to the home screen. You manage the core modules (home, agenda, speakers and map, the QR code ticket, attendee login and attendee list, FAQ, exhibitors and content pages) in the built-in CMS, in two languages and in your corporate design. Push notifications, newsfeed, quiz, feedback & surveys, chat and photo gallery are premium features. It is not an event management app for your team; that is what the backend and the check-in app are for.

The event app is the guest list from the attendee’s side: their schedule, their ticket, their people.

How do you build an event app with AirLST?

  1. Create the app. One app per event at no extra charge per app; corporate design in self-service, languages, custom domain from Professional.
  2. Add content. In the CMS: days, sessions, rooms, tracks, speakers, exhibitors, venue map, FAQ and content pages; drafts stay hidden until you publish.
  3. Connect attendees. The app link goes into the confirmation and reminder; attendees sign in and see their ticket, a personal schedule from their workshop choice, and the attendee list.
  4. Choose premium features. Push, newsfeed, quiz, feedback & surveys, chat, photo gallery, more languages, as add-ons or included depending on the package.
  5. During the event. Room change in the CMS, push to the people affected, newsfeed with highlights, quiz in the session, check-in by scanning the app ticket.
  6. Afterward. Feedback and survey in the app, photo gallery, attendance and results in event reporting.

How is the event app different from store apps and the event website?

A native app from the app store has to be installed, approved and updated; many attendees will not do that for a two-day event. The event website informs people before the event but does not know the individual attendee: no ticket, no personal schedule, no push notification. A generic event app that is not connected to the guest list needs imports and does not know who registered for which session.

The AirLST event app is a web app with a login: no install, but an attendee you already know.

That is why the ticket is in the app without anyone uploading it, why the personal schedule is the workshop choice from registration, and why a push notification reaches exactly the attendees of one session. It is also why there is no export from the app: attendance, feedback and activity are stored on the attendee’s record in the guest list. The event website remains the place before the event, in the same design; the app is the place during it.

What does the event app work with?

With invitation emails for the app link, event registration for the login and personal schedule, event ticketing for the QR code, the guest list for the attendee list and audience groups, event check-in for the scan, post-event surveys for feedback, and event reporting.

  • Conference management: sessions, hotel, transfers, networking and check-in for each day
  • Matchmaking: suggestions and meeting slots, confirmed in the app
  • Trade show management: exhibitors, booths and time slots in the app
  • Pricing: event app packages, premium features and bundles with the Suite
FAQ

Event app FAQ

Do attendees have to download the event app from an app store?
No. The AirLST event app is a progressive web app: attendees open a link or scan a QR code, the app runs in the browser on iPhone and Android, and they can add it to their home screen. No download, no app store approval, no version anyone has to update.

Which events is an event app worth it for?
Any event with a program that can change and attendees who need to find their way: conferences with sessions, customer events with an evening program, trade shows with exhibitors, multi-day formats with hotel and transfers. Zalando ran its Digital Acceleration Summit with 800 guests, 30 speakers and three event days on AirLST.

What features does a conference app need?
For a conference: an agenda with tracks and a personal schedule, speaker profiles, a venue map, the attendee's ticket, FAQ and practical pages, and a way to reach attendees during the day. In AirLST, home, agenda, speakers, map, ticket, attendee list, FAQ, exhibitors and content pages are included; push notifications, newsfeed, quiz, feedback & surveys, chat and photo gallery are premium features.

How does the attendee's ticket get into the event app?
The attendee signs in with the login from their confirmation. Their ticket with QR code is already in the app because it comes from the same guest record as the PDF and wallet ticket. At the entrance, the code is scanned with the check-in app.

Can I send push notifications to attendees through the event app?
Yes, as a premium feature: push notifications go to everyone or to selected attendee groups, for example the attendees of one session when the room changes. Premium features are included in Professional Plus and available as add-ons in the other packages, see pricing.

Can the event app use our branding and our own domain?
Yes. You set logo, colors and fonts yourself; the app is white label with no AirLST note, and from the Professional package it runs on your own domain. Two languages are included, more languages are available as a premium feature.
