Getting started
The app prompts the volunteer to enter their email address.
A code will be emailed, which is entered to access their profile.
Next, the volunteer can "View my shifts" or "Search for more shifts"
When "View my shifts" is selected, the volunteer sees a list of their shifts. Depending on settings for the event/program, the volunteer may have the ability to cancel, check-in or send a message. These settings are configured within the event/program detail.
When "Search for more shifts" is selected, the volunteer sees a list of open/available shifts (as seen on the web signup) and has the ability to add shifts.
The app provides a search function to find shifts on specific dates.
