We are excited to announce a new feature in Qdrome that makes the mobile app easier to use, reduces the possibility of errors, and gives the Group Administrator additional control: Non-editable Broadcast templates. Group Administrators in the Control Center now can lock certain settings and functionalities for Qdrome mobile app users, ensuring that sending a Broadcast is simpler, accurate, and mistake-free.
What Does This Mean for Mobile App Users?
In essence, mobile users no longer need to worry about accidentally changing crucial settings. Once the Group Administrator configures a Broadcast template in the Control Center, the user’s role is streamlined—allowing them to modify only the title and description. Sending Broadcasts becomes as easy as pressing a button, reducing the risk of human error and speeding up the process.
It’s also important to note that Group Administrators can prepare both editable and non-editable templates, offering flexibility based on user needs. While non-editable Broadcast templates are locked for specific purposes, users always have the option to create their own fully editable templates. This allows them to adjust settings, customize functionalities, and fine-tune every detail they want. This balance ensures that both simplicity and customization coexist within the app.
Use Cases
1. Elderly Users
In scenarios where your group includes elderly members, this feature truly shines. The Group Administrator can set up Broadcast templates that are ready to go, eliminating any need for the elderly user to navigate Broadcast template settings. With non-editable templates, they simply change the title or description if necessary and press a single button on their mobile device or physical smart Flic button. This makes the app both accessible and foolproof.
2. Drivers, Delivery Personnel, and Field Workers
For those on the move—whether driving, delivering, or working in the field—adjusting mobile settings on the go can be cumbersome and even dangerous. The locked Broadcast template option ensures that reporting and communication from the field is straightforward and correct, minimizing distractions and maximizing efficiency.
3. Building Residents and Property Managers
In the micro-communities of apartment buildings, proper communication and documentation are essential. Whether it’s submitting maintenance requests, reporting security concerns, or recording community incidents, accuracy matters. The non-editable template functionality allows building managers to ensure that each report is categorized correctly, simplifying the process for all residents. Even those less tech-savvy can easily use the app, shortening the learning curve and providing a consistent user experience.

Simplifying User Interaction for Maximum Efficiency
This new feature is all about making things easier for everyone involved. With non-editable Broadcast templates, users no longer have to stress over making a mistake, and Group Administrators can be confident that all reports and actions are accurately submitted. At the same time, users retain the freedom to create their own templates and fully customize them when more control is necessary. It’s a win-win solution that enhances usability while ensuring reliability.
