Welcome to Pathable Follow

Welcome to Pathable’s next generation (“vnext”) event app platform! If you haven’t already, you should shortly receive an invitation email with a customized link that will give you access to start setting things up. (Do not forward this email, otherwise you will give others access to your administrative account.)

If you have any questions or concerns, please use the green Support option in your administrative dashboard or email support@pathable.com and someone will respond to you quickly.

Training Overview

Background

Your app has three “experiences”:

• Desktop Web App: This is what your attendees will see if they load the URL for your event on a desktop web browser such as Safari, Chrome or Internet Explorer.
• Mobile Web App: This is what your attendees will see if they load the URL for your event on their mobile devices. It is an identical experience to the native app.
• Native app: An iOS / Android app, under your name, that can be downloaded from the Apple and Google Play app stores. (Important note: By Apple’s rules, your organization must obtain your own Apple Developer Account so that we can submit your app to the app store. Apple will not allow your app to be submitted under any account but yours.)
  • We will need to collect some information from you to build your native app (e.g., the icon that should appear when the app installed.) However, because the mobile web and native experiences are identical, you can go ahead and import all your content, set your design and styles, etc. using the Host Tools Dashboard.

The first thing you'll want to do is create accounts and send an invitation to anyone on your staff that will be assisting you with setup. Click here to find out how to create accounts for your staff, speakers, and attendees.
