With Subsplash Group Events, group managers can create and manage events directly within the messaging interface, making it easier to keep everyone informed and engaged without needing separate calendar tools or email chains.
For Subsplash Groups & Messaging clients whose apps are updated to the latest app version (6.14+), you can access Group Events by logging into your group on the mobile app or web messaging interface.
Creating an Event
Group managers can create events in two simple ways:
On Mobile
Open your Subsplash app
Click on the Messaging icon
Navigate to “Conversations”
Select your group
Tap the "+" icon in the message composer
Select "Event" from the menu
Fill in the event details and tap "Create"
On Web Messaging
Open Subsplash Messaging on the web
Navigate to “Conversations”
Select your group
Click the "+" icon in the message composer
Select "Event" from the menu
Fill in the event details and click "Create"
Only group managers can create and edit events. Regular members can view events and interact through reactions and comments.
Event Details
When creating an event, you can include:
Event title
Date and time
Location (optional)
Description (optional)
Recurring options (one-time or repeating)
For recurring events, you can set the frequency (daily, weekly, monthly) and an end date if applicable.
Managing Events
After creating an event, group managers can:
Edit event details - Tap/click on the event and select "Edit"
Delete an event - Tap/click on the event and select "Delete"
Update members - Group managers can share their event back to the Group chat feed to remind members of upcoming events or highlight any changes
Member Interaction
Group members can engage with events in several ways:
React with emojis - Express interest or excitement with a quick emoji reaction
Comment in threads - Ask questions or coordinate details in the event comment thread
Receive notifications - All group members receive notifications about new events
Best Practices
Create events at least a week in advance when possible
Include clear location details and any special instructions
Use the description field to share what members should bring or prepare
For recurring events, create a single recurring event rather than multiple individual events
Encourage members to use reactions to acknowledge they've seen the event
Use Polls to gather potluck or planning information
In addition to creating events through the mobile app and web messaging, we've made sure group managers have all the tools they need to keep their community engaged and informed about upcoming gatherings.
