The visual identity of an enterprise or company is essential so it becomes a strong brand. InEvent platform allows the customization of images and colors in order for your company to have all the identity details reflected in the cloud and on the event app.
What steps do I need to take to complete this process?
To begin, complete the following steps.
- To begin the process of setting up a white-labeled app, first, you are required to open a Business account in the Apple App store and/or a Google Play store account.

- Complete all of your Company Details, including the App Information.
- Insert your Company Images.
- Complete all Legal Information required.
- Once this is done, you will choose which publishing method to pursue.
- The email store@inevent.com and password default should be added to both the company details page and to the app account store to grant us admin access. You should follow this step-by-step: Adding users inside stores.
- For your Google Play Store details, ensure the JSON key is also entered in the Android specific field (for how to extract, see Adding users within stores ).
- Once this information is completed, tick the boxes for Request Android update and Request iOS update. When you are done, click End.
- Ensure you have prepared your event for approval on the Apple App Store.
- Two-factor authentication is a store security rule that customers are required to use depending on their store configuration.

When will the app be available?
- The publishing of an app on the Google Play Store will take up to 10 business days and on the Apple Store will take up to 25 business days.
- Subsequent updates (name change, splash image, or color) occur within 5 business days.
- The deadlines do not depend on the chosen form of publication (direct or MDM)
Tips for speeding up your app approval
- If you are an agency: Get your clients' signatures
Often the visual identity of the event is directly related to that of the contracting company. Both Apple and Google stores have strict rules regarding image use. You should get your client's image usage permissions.
- Create an event exclusive for this process
Your app will be submitted for the first time for publication, and may then undergo several updates over time. Therefore an event, for this approval purpose only, is required to be created. Setting up an event exclusively for this means you won't have to worry about updating content or access every time.

Where will the app be available?
Your event app will be available from both Android and iOS platforms and can be accessed and downloaded for free from the app stores.
In addition, you may also need to update or refresh the app's bundle identifier in order for the app's download links to be correctly displayed on your website. You can do so by navigating to the App information section of the Company details page and clicking on the refresh button next to the Bundle information item under App Android and/or App iOS. Once you have done so, the app's download links will be visible and accessible on the app landing page. Below is an example of how the page will look like, with the Android app being available to download.
How do I remove the application's initial phrase?

Can the login page be skipped on the app?
The InEvent application requires the attendee to be authenticated to have access to the event. Therefore, we suggest that a simplified form of login, such as single sign-up, is used.
