It's not always easy to get your group to switch to a new app. Here are a few ideas from other Hey users that they've found work: As Captain/Organizer, tell them how much work it is for you to manage the team in chat/email, other tools and you are switching to Hey to streamline group communication, tracking RSVPs and reduce your workload. Impress upon them that everyone needs to switch for this to work. Tell them to turn notifications "ON". Tell them to put the app on the home screen of the phone so they can see unread badge count Send a follow up communication to those that have not yet joined the group letting them know that most of the group has made the switch and you're just waiting on them. Follow up with laggards individually. Hopefully this worked!! If you have any other tips please let us know at contact@heygroup.com!!

We believe by being more connected you and your community will be stronger, happier and healthier. We strive to make sure that everyone feels welcome. We expect everyone on Hey to conduct themselves in a way that is safe, respectful and inclusive of others. We expect the content and experiences shared through Hey to be authentic, useful and healthy for your group, and always stay within and compliant with the local governing law. However, if you do feel that there has been a breach of the Hey Community Rules, then we offer the following tools and services as support: Contact your group or event organizer. Organizers are responsible for enforcing the HeyGroup Community Rules, and they have tools they can use to address the issue directly. Flag content for review and action by the HeyGroup team In the chat channel for a group or an event, you can select the message you wish to flag by clicking and holding the message in breach, and then selecting "Flag Message" from the menu that appears. A member of the Hey team will respond to you with the outcome of the review with 5 business days.

If you're fed up with group chats (SMS, Whatsapp, Groupme) or clunky outdated tools like Teamsnap, for getting your group organized then Hey is perfect for you. Just create your group, invite your friends and you're done. Everyone has access to chat, creating/RSVPing to events, and notifications

Hey makes group coordination easy. We are a fun, easy to use app for Chat + Events. We support all kinds of Events such as recurring, min/max # of people and availability management.

You can invite people to the group from contacts or from a link that you can share on any platform.

A Hey custom community is a digital space within the HeyConnect app where organizations, such as clubs, universities, or other groups, can engage their members. Each community is unique, providing a dedicated environment for members to connect, share content, participate in events, and access announcements. Within a custom community, members can join specific groups, attend events, and receive updates tailored to their interests.

TidyHQ is a membership management platform designed to help organizations streamline their administration, communication, and event planning. It provides tools for managing memberships, tracking tasks, handling financials, and organizing events. TidyHQ simplifies the management process for clubs, associations, and non-profits by offering a centralized platform for all their administrative needs.

TidyHQ integrates with HeyConnect to offer a seamless experience for managing community memberships. The integration allows member data from TidyHQ to be synchronized with HeyConnect, ensuring that only members of the organization have access to the community's features. Paid events can still be managed within TidyHQ, while other events can be scheduled directly within the Hey app.

The integration is limited to member synchronization. Membership data from TidyHQ is used to grant access to the HeyConnect community, ensuring that only verified members can join and participate in groups, events, and community activities.

To set up the integration, you need to authorize HeyConnect to access your TidyHQ member data. The process includes: Ensure you have an account with TidyHQ In TidyHQ, add and authorize the HeyConnect app In Hey, click on the Hey logo (top right) and select Add Community. Follow the steps to authorize access for Hey and you should be all set! As always, feel free to contact us if you have any issues.

Yes, you can create events in both platforms, but with different purposes: Paid events can be created and managed in TidyHQ, where payment processing and registration are handled. Other events for the community or specific groups can be scheduled directly in the HeyConnect app for convenience, allowing members to RSVP and participate without leaving the app.

TidyHQ pricing can be found here: https://www.tidyhq.com/pricing HeyConnect add-in is free for up to 150 users, contact us if you require more.

HeyGroup is centered around groups that you want to get together with on a regular basis. You might want to create a group for your sports teams, clubs, friend groups or really any group of people that you want to spend time with. Each group can have one or multiple events (aka activities). Events can be created by the group organizer or ANY group member. By default, all group members can see and are invited to all events, although you can customize this. We also support one-time events. Read about this in the 'events" section of the FAQ

We support all kinds of groups from large to small, for sports, social, clubs, communities or any group that wants to get together often. We have a lot of tennis and pickleball groups, college sports and social clubs, recreational sports and lots of friend groups. Our advanced features such as group and event chat, many different types of event types (recurring, paid, max/min #s, wait lists) with RSVPs and event reminders along with calendar sync make us a great choice for active groups that find it hard to stay organized in typical chat apps

There are a few options: From contacts with phone #s - this is best as you can track who has or hasn't joined the group yet and easily resend the invitation Via a group link - this is great if you have an existing chat or email group that you can just drop the link into. Via an event link - if you send a "member event link" anyone that clicks on it will be prompted to download the app and join the group. You can add people to groups during Group Create, or any time from the Group Details View.

From your group details view, or event view, click the action button to create a new event On the first set-up screen, give your event series a name and set a date for the 1st event in the series Set the "Recurring event" option to on, and select the frequency of the series - Daily, Weekly, Every 2 Weeks, Monthly, or Annually. Set an end date for the series. NOTE The maximum number of events in a series is 52 All the events in the series will have the same values as the initial event, such as title, chat option, location, description, attendance limit, and/or paid. To change these values, you can edit one or more the events after the recurring event series has been created.

Most events are simple with a date/time and location however you can create other types of events including: Recurring - perfect for practices or regular group meetings Max or Min # of people (with max you have the option to use a waitlist) Captains Pick - here group members will say if they're available and the captain can pick who they want to attend/play. Paid - if you want to charge a fee to attend an event we provide an easy way to track who has and hasn't paid you yet (Note: we don't do the payment, we just allow you to track who has paid you via paypal, venmo or other)

Yes - we have an event guest link that you can share with people outside the group. When they click on the link it will prompt them to join HeyGroup if they're not a user, and then they'll be able to RSVP to the event but they will not see the group, or become a member of the group.

Yes, for each event, the admin will see a turquoise speaker, that will allow them to easily blast a message about the event out to group members via SMS. This is a great way to get people's attention if they're not responding to app notifications/reminders.

Yes, admins can go into the Attendance section of the event and click "..." to update any group members response.

Group Chat Every group will automatically have a group chat channel that all group members are part of. This can be used to chat with other group members to plan events etc. with the entire group. Event Chat When a user creates an event for a group, they also have the option to create a new event chat channel. That chat channel is specifically for that event only (recurring series would have different chat for each event in the series). Group members that have replied as "going" or "maybe" will be automatically added to the event chat channel. Whereas, group members that have replied as "unavailable" will not be added to the event chat so they do not need to hear about the details of an event they have no intention of attending. But, if they do want to know what is going on, other group members who want to join event chat but has said they are not going can do so by clicking the chat box on the Event details screen. If a group member wants to leave any chat channel they can do so by going into the chat channel and clicking at the top right. Here they can also mute the channel. Direct Chat You can also chat to your connections directly, or start chatting with 2 or more connections on a separate channel. You can start a direct chat by clicking on your connection, from the home screen, or clicking the create new message icon on the chat screen.

An activity green dot will be displayed on a channel icon/badge when all the members of that channel have the HeyGroup app open on their device.

We send group members a reminder to reply to an event 2 days prior (if they haven't already). For those that have RSVP'd as "Going" we send a reminder 1 day and 1 hr before the event.

Today we send notifications to admins for the following: When someone joins a group When someone RSVPs to and event When the min number has not been met for an event with a Min # We also send notifications to everyone for the following: When they owe money (when expense first entered and then weekly reminder) When there's a new chat When there's a new event As previously mentioned, also event reminders 1 day and 1 hr prior to the event, and a reminder 2 days prior to RSVP if they haven't

Members will receive alerts in the following ways: 1. phone notifications - these can be configured on your phone. For IOS go to Settings ->Notifications ->HeyGroup - there you can configure Banner style, sounds and badges. 2. Red badge count on the app and in the app on the menu at the bottom where you have an action to take. We highly recommend that you put HeyGroup on the first page of your phone so you can see if you have a notification (event or chat). 3. Activity menu in app. All notifications will also be in here (except Chat). When you click on the "Activity" view in the app, it will show everything as read and clear all your unread badge count.
