Groups Discovery
Users are presented with a list of available groups (clubs, chapters, committees, etc.) in your organization. They can read each group's detail information and “join” with a tap. Once accepted by the group administrator (or you can make joins automatic with no approval), the group's information appears in the user's feed as it is created.
News Feed-Based App Experience
The app creates a feed featuring the most recent news from the groups each of your users has joined at the top.
Multiple Administrators
Account administrators easily create groups in the console. Offload group management by making a member an administrator of their own group.
Polls, photos, etc.
Groups can distribute announcements, photos, live polls, discussions, and calendars to its members. App administrators use browser-based tools or their app to create the posts.

Administrators create event announcements including dates, times, descriptions, and other information by completing a form in the app. Events have optional check-in and RSVP features. You can also connect a button to any payment services (PayPal, Venmo, etc.).
Pinning
Important posts can be pinned to the top of feeds by an app or group administrator, preventing the information from scrolling down with the rest of the feed.
