Access Map Apps can be installed on smartphones, tablets and computers to ensure ease-of-access and device sync preferences (e.g. high-contrast display). Users can opt to receive push notifications about upcoming events or community news, and can also use the Map App for directions to their destination. Made to fit your branding, our Map Apps ensures that the community can access your information on their time and terms while giving you the power of an app.

Why Map Apps?

<p>Navigating the internet isn't the same for everyone. Having a Map App ensures people with digital accessibility needs (e.g. blindness or low vision) can access your Map at any time, from their preferred device. </p>

Digital accessibility 

<p>Map Apps promote engagement by enabling users to add locations to their shortlists, share events with friends and get directions to new destinations, all from one place. </p>

Personalisation

<p>Map Apps give our partners the flexibility and functionality of an app. They also give you the option of keeping your community updated with push notifications, event updates and local news. </p>

Staying up-to-date

<h3>Take action from the App  </h3>
<p>Map Apps ensure that people with diverse access needs can do more than simply locate your venues on a map. Using your Map App, users can create filters that meet their needs, e.g. confirmation of accessible parking spaces and accessible restrooms. This helps current and prospective clients engage with your business more fully by:</p>
<ul>
<li>saving their accessibility filters and language preferences</li>
<li>searching and filtering by interest, age, and date range</li>
<li>shortlisting their favourite venues and amenities for return visits</li>
<li>booking upcoming and recurring events </li>
<li>sharing their favourite organisations and venues with friends and family </li>
</ul>

<h3>Send broadcasts </h3>

<ul>
<li>emergency alerts</li>
<li>upcoming events</li>
<li>planned travel, transportation or service disruptions </li>
</ul>
