Quick Summary

  • Yapp introduces an Eventbrite tickets template page to make ticketing information easier to share inside an app.
  • A more direct ticketing setup helps connect registration flow with the event app experience.
  • Event teams using Eventbrite for registration will benefit most from this feature.

Putting together an event takes a lot of time, organization, and awesome tools.

Now, two of your favorite tools are joining forces to streamline your event management from start to finish. Yapp has partnered with Eventbrite to bring you our newest template page: tickets.

If you already use Eventbrite for ticketing and event management, all you have to do is open up the Yapp for your event, add the Tickets page, then sync your Eventbrite account to import your event.

If you aren’t familiar with Eventbrite, it’s the world largest self-service ticketing company that allows people to easily host, promote and discover events they’ll love.

By bringing our services together, your users will be able to get everything they need to attend and have a great time at your event, all in one place.

Head to Yapp now to check out the new page. If you have feedback, send it our way. And, if you’re excited about the Yapp/Eventbrite friendship, spread the word and help get more organizers on board!

Product Update: A Change to Theming

5 Replies

Quick Summary

  • Yapp shares a theming update that changes how app styling and visual presentation work.
  • Better theming controls help creators build a more polished and on-brand mobile experience.
  • Users focused on app design and customization will benefit most from this update.

As we work to make Yapp better, we’ve decided to make a big change to the way that theming works.

We’re saying goodnight to our current theme library starting November 30th and switching over to a more modern and technically-efficient system, which incorporates our newest Basic theme in light and dark.

The new styling tool will sit at the top of the editor screen. If you want to change your color or style (Light or Dark), you can click to expand and see a variety of colors.

With this new design, our users will have a (literal) rainbow of color options to choose from, plus additional opportunities to customize. If the color you want isn’t an option, we’ll be able to easily work with you to add it. New features — including a more DIY cover page and the template pages you’ve been asking for, among other new things — will be seamless additions.

Some of our users have already been using the styling tool rather than the theme library. For our longtime users, the old themes will remain available until November 30, when we switch things over. If you don’t move your account to the new look before November 30, your theme will change to the Basic style in a color that matches the previous look.

We hope you’ll check out the new style tool and give us your feedback! If you have any questions or concerns, please reach out to us via email.

We’re running a crowdfunding campaign in hopes of funding four template pages to add to the Yapp platform. All four are pages you’ve asked for that we’re excited to see on Yapp. Each week of the campaign, we’ll be featuring one of the four pages, showing you how it works, what it can do, and why you should help fund it!

Image and Text Page

content

Right now on Yapp, you can store photos in a few different pages. You can also paste miscellaneous information into our Simple Text page. But so far, we haven’t had a page that can function as a great-looking mix of the two. With the Image and Text page we are hoping to add, all of those problems will be solved. You’ll be able to insert a picture (that could be your logo, an image of the hotel you’re staying at, a fun GIF of a kitten) and include informative text beneath it. 

There are a ton of different ways to take advantage of this rich page. Maybe you’re including directions — take a screenshot of the map route and include the list of directions beneath it. This is a great option before we guests can get a maps page running on the platform. Or, you could use it to include photos that need captions or to add a bit of flair to a basic message.

It’s great to add professionalism and context for conference and business apps, or to add fun aesthetics to your personal or group apps.

We would love for you to show off more images and add fun context to your next Yapp. To build the Image and Text template page, we’re hoping to raise $1,750. If you’d like to see this page added to our platform, or need it in your Yapp ASAP, please contribute to fund it. If you give $80 or more, you’ll have access to the page in your account once it becomes available. You won’t be charged unless the campaign succeeds.

Quick Summary

  • Yapp introduces template pages that support crowdfunding-style communication and storytelling.
  • Prebuilt content structures help creators launch purpose-driven apps faster and more clearly.
  • Users building campaign, fundraising, or project-focused apps will benefit most from these templates.

We love hearing from you, our users, about what you want to see on Yapp. And, we want to make our app-builder the best possible resource for whatever you decide to create.

After talking to a number of users, we decided on four template pages to add to Yapp — Instagram, RSS Feeds, Photo and Text, and Multi-Track Scheduling. But to do that, we’re going to need your help.

See, to craft these pages, our awesome design team has to imagine what they’ll look like and how they’ll work. Then, our incredible developers have to take that vision and code it into reality. Lastly, the team tests the pages to see what works and what doesn’t. That 3 step process takes a long time, and repeats itself over and over until we come out with a near-perfect template page for you to use.

In layman’s terms, it’s not easy. And rather than asking you to fund an entire thousands-of-dollars page yourself (we know a big portion of you use Yapp because it’s affordable), we are hoping our community will come together to help us out. Pitching in just a little bit to one page or to all the pages will help immensely, and will bring you a few steps closer to getting the template page you want for your Yapp.

If you don’t see a page you’re dying for yet, don’t worry! The success of these campaigns will help us decide if we should run others and fund more template pages. In the long run, we want everyone using Yapp to be able to have all the useful pages that they want without handing over an arm and a leg.
