Besides, since the year 2020, since the outbreak of the Covid-19 Pandemic, all types of events, big or small, are being carried out virtually.

Top Event App Trends for 2021 that Event App Developers and Owners Should Consider!

Event App Trends
Enhancing User Experience
Optimizing the user experience is a MUST. This can be done by ensuring that the app content is highly relevant and engaging. For this, the app should possess content like the schedule of the events, contact information, directions of the events, speaker details/biographies, etc. Also, the user experience can be elevated by ensuring consistent styling throughout the app, using graphics or HD images in the app, etc.
Branding of the Event App
Your event app is the representation of your event business and hence, it should be branded accordingly. Pick the logo, fonts, styles, etc. wisely. Using color palettes that will be visually impactful is also quite essential for the app. Furthermore, all the app elements should be consistent with each other. Lastly, certain guidelines must be followed by every event application development company during its development to meet the standards of the app.
Virtual Technology
Virtual event applications are trending nowadays but, this feature is not yet much compatible with current platforms when it comes to matching with live engagement. There are a few other challenges too, like the untested solutions, no support, no integration, cost concerns, etc. But, these virtual apps are quite beneficial. They can help in expanding the customers, increasing the revenue, tracking vital data, promotional purposes, etc.
Facial Recognition
This is a new and innovative trend that comes with huge potential. It helps a big time in improving registration processes and app security. It streamlines the participation in events and reduces wait timings to some extent. Besides, for physical events, facial recognition in the event applications acts as a check-in tool. It’s a contactless and secure way for event attendees to check in the events.
Inclusion of Polls, Surveys, Reviews, etc.
These features are meant to improve user engagement. These can also be used for fun purposes during the events. It will engage the users and make them feel they are important and their views matter. You can gather real-time insights using the poll answers and live surveys and this data can be used for the enhancement of the app.
The Projection Mapping
Projection mapping technique is becoming quite popular amongst event planners nowadays. Projection mapping or Hologram is used for an in-depth understanding of content and then for higher user engagement. This trend enhances extra dimensions, optical illusions, and 3D movement, etc. Besides this, another technique called table projection mapping can be utilized in events for personalization, branding, story-telling, etc. Also, this technique helps to show pre-recorded presentations to the participants. Speakers from any corner of the world can deliver their presentations while not being physically present at the venue.
Augmented and Virtual Reality
Augmented Reality (AR) and Virtual Reality (VR) experiences have been impacting the event industry quite a lot in recent years. AR is used for grabbing the attention of attendees and motivating them to interact within the event. This technology has the ability to enhance the user experience, and result in increased media attention, more engagement, social media shares, etc. VR helps to create a computer-generated 3D world for the app users that makes the app much appealing.
Machine Learning and AI Chatbots.
These advanced technologies have influenced almost every existing industrial sector and the event industry is no exception. AI-powered programs collect the live event data and these programs are based on preferences, activity, behavioral data of the attendees, etc. This is real-time data and can be quickly altered or modified depending on the interest of attendees. AI chatbots can be used for interacting with attendees and answer their queries. Also, both these technologies can help the app owners to conduct multiple sessions, and deliver a powerful experience to the remote attendees.
Live Streaming
The live streaming feature is already being used on a large scale in countless apps. The live streaming events attract a huge number of people in real-time. These are more lively, authentic, and connecting and so, they get a much better response from the users. Using this feature, Q&A sessions can be extended during the live events, there can be group chats, the users can raise a hand, provide feedback, and similar engaging activities can be carried out.
Proximity Marketing with Beacons
While hosting an event, beacons can be placed around the event location for the creation of an interactive network for the online attendees using the event app. These beacons help in several important tasks like attendee tracking, online check-ins, proximity marketing, etc. This technology can also be useful in monitoring the floor plan flow in the events.
A Few More Trends for Optimizing the Adoption of Event Applications
  • Inform the attendees about the event app much earlier for ensuring widespread adoption of the event. This can be done using emails, social media, etc.
  • Use the app for registrations for early promotion of the app.
  • Let the promotion of the app be done by event speakers and other attendees as well. Encourage them to share the app with their contacts.
  • On the event day, introduce the app in various ways and ensure that the attendees use the app for some or the other reason like reviews, polls, or any games, etc.
Final Thoughts

Counselling Apps

Many countries are still following the lockdown guidelines and are encouraging social distancing. Such a situation is likely to cause anxiety and take a toll on an individual’s mental health. Hence, the importance of counseling can’t be underestimated for managing stress. Counseling apps have already helped many people around the globe.

Counselling Apps

Biz4Solutions has built an On-Demand healthcare apps that allows one to book appointments or online sessions with healthcare providers. For example, the Phlex65 app built by us is a practical solution for elderly people for hiring licensed care providers from nearby areas. These care providers assist old people in daily activities like consuming medicines, healthy cooking, bathing, etc. This app empowers care providers as well. We can develop a similar counseling app for clients.

Social Awareness Apps

The pandemic scenario has pushed people into spending most of their time on smartphones and it has been observed that a considerable amount of this time is devoted to gathering information using social media. Social media awareness apps can keep individuals informed about the latest news concerning the current situation. Moreover, if someone needs stuff like groceries, masks, or generic medicines, social awareness apps can be used for obtaining the contact details of nearby stores
Biz4Solutions has crafted many social apps, one of them being Link. It’s a social networking and awareness app. This app enables individuals with similar health interests to connect online, chat with each other as well as create groups. They can share information such as the best doctors nearby, the cheapest medications, health management tips, etc. on this social platform. They can also share images, audio/videos. This app uses the features of geo-location tracking and ‘push notifications’ for providing a rich UX.

Patient-Doctor Communication Apps

A patient-doctor communication app is a blessing for most patients. Such apps allow people with less mobility needing any guidance or medical advice, to instantly contact a doctor via online communication channels without having to pay a visit to the medical facility. Furthermore, patients with COVID-like symptoms requiring online help from doctors can get real-time access to practitioners through these apps. We have created such apps wherein the patient can book the appointment via video conferencing with the healthcare providers, make payments digitally, and then go ahead with the video-calling session. During video conferencing sessions, patients can speak directly to the practitioner and explain the symptoms. Thereafter, the doctor diagnoses the condition and prescribes medication.

Informative Apps

Fake information regarding healthcare being circulated on social media and other communication platforms has become commonplace. Hence the need for genuine apps that provide authentic information from trusted/authorized sources such as the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), the World Health Organization (WHO), etc. to resolve the confusion amongst people.
The proficient healthcare app developers at Biz4Solutions have crafted highly secure HIPAA compliant apps for leading hospitals facilities and other medical organizations around the globe. We make sure that all healthcare data is safe and its privacy protocol is maintained. We acquire information from trusted and authentic sources only.

During life-threatening conditions, the patients can use this app to get much-needed assistance immediately to save their lives. Such apps provide handy information and reliable emergency alerts to people trapped in critical situations.

Total Management Apps for Practitioners

Several medium and large-sized hospital facilities are witnessing a tough time now. Patients are visiting hospitals in huge numbers and as such, the hospitals are struggling to manage this situation. However, applications like Total Management App and the Practice Management System (PMS) offered at Biz4Solutions, have eased out things!
These apps and systems help medical organizations in many ways. They not only integrate the medical data of the patients but also store it in centralized systems. This data is saved in digital format and can be accessed by the doctors immediately for providing better treatment to patients. The doctors working in different branches of a chain of hospitals can access it as well. This data assists in improved-decision making.
Additionally, it is used for self-automating the appointment-scheduling process. The patients can book appointment slots as per their availability of doctors. A PMS is a comprehensive solution that simplifies many complex hospital functions.
