InvitePeople Launches Next Generation of Event App
InvitePeople, a leading event management platform, has introduced a new Progressive Web App (PWA) for event attendees. The PWA is connected to the InvitePeople event management platform, providing a seamless experience for event organizers and attendees.
The event-specific PWA technology offers several benefits for event organizers and attendees. In general, PWAs can take advantage of device features like push notifications, location services, and camera access, providing a more seamless and integrated experience. Also, PWAs can work offline or with a poor internet connection, making them more reliable than traditional web apps. This makes the right choice of technology going forward.
One of the key benefits today is the ability to always use an event-specific icon for the app, rather than an icon for the event management platform provider. This will help event organizers build stronger a stronger brand for their events. The PWA is designed for the individual event and does not require attendees to download an app from the AppStore or Google Play. This makes it also easier for attendees to find and access the app on their mobile devices.
Another key benefit is updating the app directly without requiring attendees to download a new version from the AppStore or Google Play. This ensures that attendees always have access to the latest information and features, making their experience more seamless and enjoyable.
Additionally, administrators can update the content in one place, ensuring that the same content is available on the web on desktop, the web on mobile, and in the PWA app. This simplifies managing event information and ensures attendees have access to the most up-to-date information.
“We are excited to introduce our new PWA for event attendees,” said Mats Storckenfeldt, CEO of InvitePeople. “Our PWA offers a more convenient and engaging experience for attendees while simplifying the process of managing events for organizers. We believe that our PWA will revolutionize the way people attend events, and we’re excited to be at the forefront of this new technology. It is the kind of industry-leading feature our clients have become expecting from us. Our PWA offers several benefits for event organizers and attendees, and more to come as it develops.”
Overall, the new PWA from InvitePeople offers a variety of benefits over traditional event apps, including easy installation, always up-to-date features, cross-platform compatibility, and a more app-like experience. With these features, the PWA provides a seamless experience for event organizers and attendees alike, making it the ideal solution for modern events.

What is a Progressive Web App?
A Progressive Web App (PWA) is a type of web application that is designed to provide a native app-like experience on a mobile device or desktop browser. PWAs are built using web technologies such as HTML, CSS, and JavaScript, but they are designed to be fast, reliable, and accessible, just like native apps.
PWAs are different from traditional web apps in several ways. First, they can be installed on a user’s device and launched from the home screen, just like a native app. This means that users can access the app quickly and easily without having to navigate to a website each time.
Second, PWAs can work offline or with a poor internet connection, making them more reliable than traditional web apps. Finally, PWAs can take advantage of device features like push notifications, location services, and camera access, providing a more seamless and integrated experience for users.
Overall, PWAs offer many benefits over traditional web apps and can provide a great user experience for those who want a mobile app-like experience without the hassle of downloading a native app.
Benefits of Progressive Web Apps (PWAs) over traditional phone apps
Cross-platform compatibility: PWAs work across multiple platforms and devices, including desktop, mobile, and tablet devices. This means that you can build a single PWA that works on both iOS and Android devices, as well as desktop browsers.
Instant loading: PWAs are designed to load quickly, even on slow or unstable network connections. This is because PWAs are built using modern web technologies and optimized for performance.
Offline functionality: PWAs can work offline or with limited connectivity, which means that users can continue to use the app even when they are not connected to the internet. This is achieved through the use of caching and other technologies that store data locally on the device.
App-like experience: PWAs can be installed on a user’s device, just like a traditional phone app, and launched from the home screen. This means that users can access the app quickly and easily, without having to navigate to a website each time.
Low friction installation: Installing a PWA is a simple process, often just requiring the user to click a button. There is no need to visit an app store or download a large app file, which can reduce the barrier to entry for users.
Lower development costs: PWAs can be cheaper to develop and maintain than traditional phone apps, as they can be built using web technologies that developers are already familiar with.
Overall, PWAs offer several advantages over traditional phone apps, including cross-platform compatibility, instant loading, offline functionality, and a more app-like experience.
