It’s been a busy summer in Appy land. Thanks to our great beta customers, we’ve been getting tons of awesome feedback and suggestions, and doing our best to turn them into new features. Here’s a quick overview of what we’ve done:
A brand new travel section
Now Appy Couple is an even better way to stay organized for destination weddings, or weddings where a lot of your guests are coming from out of town. We’ve included widgets for just about everything you can think of to help your guests get to your wedding and enjoy themselves once they’re there.
Choose which sections you want to show
Every wedding is different. So now, you can choose to hide certain sections that don’t apply to you. You can turn off Registry, Key People, and the new Travel section. Just use the slider button. If you change your mind later, all it takes is a click!
 
Choose your fun features
We love our fun features, and now you have more control over them as well. It’s now possible for you to make the call about whether or not you want to use them. Simply turn them on or off in your dashboard.

Preview as you go
Really, this is so cool. As you update each section of your app, you’ll notice that the phone preview on the screen changes. So you can see the effect of what you’re doing without having to switch back and forth from your computer to your mobile device.
More control over event settings
We’ve added the capability to automatically make an event show up for everyone, whether you’ve checked them off as invited to that event in the guest list or not. You can still limit viewing some events to only those specifically invited. So everyone can see the Ceremony and Reception, for instance, but not the Bachelorette Party. Plus, you can decide whether or not you want to enable RSVP for each event. Just remember, in order to RSVP, guests will have to be “invited” in your guest list.

Say cheese! And edit photos in your gallery online
This you just have to try. Go to your gallery and click on a photo. Add fun effects, crop, resize, rotate—even add graphics and text.

Profile picture
Trust us, you’ll want to choose a profile photo to upload now. We’ve got a big surprise update coming that will make this picture a great feature. You can easily resize your profile photo using the slider below it.
Keep your suggestions coming!
We can’t wait to see how you like all our new features and improvements. Let us know if you have more comments! Just email us at support @ appycouple.com. And look for even more great new features and functionality, coming soon!

So excited about the Travel section — thank you!!
My iPhone still says there is no updates to appy couple, and I still can’t upload a single photograph from my phone to try out the new “editting function”
Hi Stephanie,
I’m sorry to hear you are having difficulties. The recent update was to our website, not to the iPhone app, sorry for the confusion. We have a second update on the way which will enhance the app and fix photo upload difficulty.
In the meantime if you can try the following steps:
*Log out of your wedding (lower right info icon)
* Double tap the home button. Hold down the Appy Couple icon. Tap the red minus sign.
* Launch Appy Couple and log in.
* Try uploading a new photo.
We are working on getting the update out, and I thank you for your patience while we are in beta.
Thanks,
Vivek

I had the same problem for weeks, I couldn’t upload photos from my phones library. After Appy Couple support had me try everything they could think of, but they could not replicate the problem on their end. I finally figured out the problem myself. Go to your settings and location services, make sure they are turned on for Appy Couple. I had to delete and reinstall the app to figure it out, but now it works and I can upload pictures.
Hi Crystal,
Thank you so much for pointing this out. We are working on an update to photo uploads, which will be available in a few weeks.
Have a great day,
Vivek

It would be nice for people that can not access the actual app to be able to toast or leave a message for bride and groom on the website. My Mom will want to write us a message on our website, but does not have an app phone.
Why is this section that is on that app not included on the website? Are you able to add that to the website?
Hi Jaclyn,
Thanks for your feedback. We are launching brand new wedding websites in a few weeks that will include the ability to write messages and toasts!
Regards,

These changes are great! One comment that has come up from our guests is that they find it confusing to have no “submit” button when they RSVP. I did include detailed instructions with the invite, but is this something you guys are considering?
I absolutely love our site & app
I’m excited for the new site to be launched, and wondered if grouping families together, so that one person can indicate whether or not each member of that family will be attending or not, is a feature you’re planning?
Thank you so much, Alyssa!
And I’ll pass your idea about a “submit” button for the RSVP along to the team—it’s a very good point.
We’re definitely planning +1s and grouping for RSVPs, so keep an eye out!
Best,

Love the app and concept!
Is an update in the works for android smartphones? The app works awesome on my iPhone but my fiancé’s android smartphone has trouble loading the pages of the app so that they fit his screen (currently the pages are larger than the screen and he scrolls left and right to read all the information).
Can’t wait to see what other new features you’ve been working on!
Kristin
Hi Kristin,
We’re glad you are enjoying Appy Couple! We are working on an update for Android that will fix the appearance of the app, which will be available in a few weeks.
We have a few new features in the works so stay tuned!
Thanks,

Just wanted to let you know that I love the new travel feature, it is great to finally be able to link to the hotel’s page!!! Can’t wait for the new website design.
Thanks so much Crystal! We really appreciate your kind words.

Hi, we love the appy couple and plan to use this for our wedding next year. However, we would like to have video posting feature. That would be complete. Thanks a ton!
Hi Katie,
We’re thrilled that you are enjoying Appy Couple!
A video posting feature would be neat. I will bring your suggestion to the team.
Thanks for your feedback,
Vivek
Thank you for such a fantastic app. Its great to have it all so organized. I can see that grouping families and +1 is going to be added in the future, which will be fantastic. I’m wanting to send invites out within the next two weeks. Should I wait? or is the grouping families a few more weeks off, in which case I’ll just proceed as is.
Thanks again for such a great idea!
Louie
Hi Louie,
We’re glad you are enjoying Appy Couple! We are working hard to have Group and +1 RSVP available in the next 2-3 weeks. however we can’t guarantee it. We’ll let you know as soon as it’s available.
Thanks,
Vivek
