At times, attendees register twice using different email addresses for various reasons. For example, sometimes they forgot the password and instead of requesting a new password, they would simply create a new account. Or, if a subordinate has created an account for a user, and has not notified about the same, the user would unknowingly register again to create an account. There’re many other scenarios where duplicate accounts are created with each account holding some important information about the user. So, normally, the organizer would manually copy each piece of information from one account to another and then discard one of the accounts. This, however, results in lost time. Lots of lost time.

Full-featured iPhone Event App for your next Event
The Dryfta event app for iOS was launched last week.
With this update, we have covered one of our major milestones. Similar to our Android app, for organizers, the iOS app includes the ability to send push notifications to attendees, a QR code scanner to scan QR codes to checkin attendees to event and sessions. Also, it is automatically synced with the website data in real-time so whatever updates organizers push to the website would be synced and displayed on the app as well.
For attendees, the iOS app has a program schedule page listing program agenda, ability to connect with an attendee and request their contact details, scan fellow attendees’ badges to collect contact details, view speakers details, browse general information pages, and engage in forum discussions.
If you wish to try the iPhone app, please download it from the app store.

Send Automated SMS notifications to Speakers about Upcoming Sessions
Need to make sure speakers are around when their session comes up during the event? Want attendees to fill up the seats prior to the session so you can assess if more seats need to be made available?
Stop worrying and set up automated SMS notifications. Dryfta’s automated SMS notification system notifies/reminds speakers and attendees about upcoming sessions. The SMS based notifications are sent to speaker’s registered phone number an hour before the session begins. This provides ample time to the speakers to reach the venue in time and do some final preparations for the session.
Since it also allows you to send automated notifications to attendees an hour prior to the session begins, you can be rest assured about seats filling up in time which would help you assess the demand for the session.
