Polling

Polling your users helps you to get to know them better and gives them a little extra fun! Add multiple choice or free response questions, and then analyze your users’ responses via the CMS. Display results in the app as well as on a big screen using our real time results widget.

“I’ve got a golden ticket!” Ramp up engagement and time spent inside your app by running a Golden Ticket contest.

Optimized Fan Wall

We’ve improved fan wall performance and added a new real-time stream, so users will see new comments without having to refresh manually. You can also institute a points limit if your fan wall is feeling spammy.

  • Swiping home gallery images will loop around
  • Ability to link home screen header image to a link of your choice
  • Ability to add even more custom ad networks to your app
  • Users can now delete their own post from their profile
  • We now track the amount of time your users spend in your app
  • A giant list of bug fixes and small improvements to make your app the best
