*Multi-ministry features
*Safe environment support for under 18
New features:
The Newman Connect app has some great new features, including multi-ministry
functions enabling Admins who serve multiple campuses to manage all of them from
one account while streamlining their workflow. Admins can also create Events for the
entire campus or parish rather than creating a Group or Event and asking all the
members to join it. Groups are now sorted alphabetically by name of Event as opposed
to the date it was created which gives the user all the information without having to
search. We are also taking extra steps to protect under 18 users by only allowing them
to join under 18 Groups and participate in group chats. When users turn 18, they will
be able to join all Groups and chat 1-on-1.
What we fixed:
We took steps to simplify the Newman Connect app to make it more user-friendly. We
removed past invites from the invite list and disabled the chat button for declined
Events to remove unnecessary clutter from the app. We also disabled the email button
when an email is not available for a user. Events are now open to everyone, and the list
shows all available Events rather than having to search for one. We updated profiles
and removed college (you’re already there) and major (it’s not relevant for your ministry
staff). We also moved location permission request to the map page because that just
makes more sense.
