Booksmart 2.1 Release Notes
We couldn’t be more excited for our first update in over 8 months. Version 2.1 combines over 100 new features, improvements and fixes to help make Booksmart the best tour management platform available. Read through to learn more about what is included in this massive update for Web, iOS and Android.
10 New Features:
Guest List Restrictions and Requests
Now you can setup your tour to require that comps are approved, you can restrict the number of guest spots per show, and even what types of tickets can be requested per crew member.
Bandsintown Integration
With a simple Bandsintown search, build your tour in a matter of seconds. Dates and venues are automatically populated, and private events or shows that are not listed can be added after.
Venue Profiles
Once any Booksmart user finds a venue through Google Maps, we create public and private profiles. Public profiles can be viewed and edited by any Booksmart member, and private profiles allow you to store details just for yourself.
Hotel Profiles
We’ve added the same functionality for hotels that we created for venues. Add amenities, explore your local surroundings, and let the rest of the community know how your stay was.
Profile Searching
Search by city to find venues that others have played, or hotels where others have stayed. Can’t figure out where to stay in Chicago? Look at the hotels that other users have booked and learn more before you commit.
User Profiles
Users can add loyalty numbers, dietary preferences, emergency contact details and more. The possibilities are endless, and with a simple click, you can adjust what other connected users can see. Crossing borders and booking flights just became a bit less painless.
Custom and Restricted Notes
Create as many notes as you want, restrict who can view them as well as who can edit. Front of house can can have their own section, as can the carpenters or the band.
Off Day Functionality
Now you can store documents, add locations and find things to do on your days off. With new functionality, complete your itinerary for every day of the tour.
International Preferences
International preferences allow users to set the mobile experience to their liking. Accounts can be customized for 24 hour schedules, date format preferences, and Celsius or Fahrenheit choices.
Finances
With the addition of income tracking, a high level overview of your cashflow is easy to manage. With a section for notes and the ability to upload images, now you can keep track of settlements and merch finals with a few clicks.
