Fotaflo Product Updates

We're releasing a major update to our Android app that will be available to all users in the coming days!

Until now Fotaflo would automatically select 4 photos to show as a collage, or if there were fewer than 4 it would pick one.

Here at Fotaflo we have recently enhanced the "Copy Link" to share feature in guest albums to provide an additional sharing menu for guests visiting their albums from mobile devices. 

This menu allows guests to share their album through other apps installed on their devices (Facebook, Whatsapp, Instagram Messenger etc.), which helps tour and activity providers to enhance their word-of-mouth marketing strategy, better reach new projects online and generate new bookings. 

This simple addition from Fotaflo can help tour and activity brands improve the profitability of their business.

Note: Instagram still does not allow third-party posts to their app.

Over time here at Fotaflo we have received reports from customers that guests sometimes have difficulty viewing videos and they don't always play reliably.

 

The Fotaflo iOS app was recently updated to version 1.24 which includes a number of changes.

Labels deleted (either removed manually or due to a rebooking) from the web app are now removed from the label search once the app has had a chance to synchronize the changes. Please note that if a deleted label had already been added to photos before it was synchronized to the device then the label will re-appear on the uploaded photos or videos and will remain in the label search.

Users in regions outside North America should see faster photo and video transfers. iOS version 1.24 now uses a better routing strategy to bring your photos and videos to Fotaflo data centres to be processed and stored for delivery to your guests.  Review this post for more information.

The following bugs were also fixed with this version:

• Some uploaded videos appear squished
• The Fotaflo app can sometimes upload even when WiFi is off and "Upload on WIFI only" has been set to "On"
• Some videos fail to upload if they've been imported multiple times
• Some videos don't appear in the "Uploaded" tab

Fotaflo is a memory marketing platform that has been specifically built to help tour and activity providers automate the distribution of photos and videos to their customers, as well as access the benefits that photo marketing can bring.

Fotaflo, the innovative photo and video memory marketing platform, recently released new versions of both the iOS (version 1.24) and Android (version 2.1.12) mobile apps. Along with other bug fixes and feature enhancements we've also included a change to accelerate photo and video uploads in regions outside North America.

One piece of feedback we've heard consistently is that you want to be able to operate all aspects of your photo solution directly from your mobile devices.

Automatic reminders are a key feature to building an ongoing hands-free word-of-mouth marketing engine for your business.

Automatic reminders let you define messages that will automatically be delivered to certain segments of guests after a certain number of days have passed since they received their original photos.

We just added a new option to reminders that let you decide if that reminder will be delivered by email, SMS or both.

We want to do a better job of sharing updates that we've implemented that came from our clients. Now any updates that came from a client will be identified with the following image!
