e-GuestList Check-In App 1.6.4

This application addresses common challenges associated with guest management, such as guest list discrepancies, lengthy wait times, and attendance tracking. It provides comprehensive check-in features, allowing users to monitor real-time check-in progress, guest arrival times, and last-minute changes.

The app offers flexibility in managing event categories including conferences, weddings, hotel guests, and more. Users can conveniently customize titles and columns to suit their specific needs. For bulk uploads, entries can be made via Excel, the web interface, or directly through iPads. The system checks for duplicate entries, permits bulk list replacements, and allows continuous updates through subsequent Excel uploads.

For those utilizing assigned seating arrangements, the e-GuestList provides four distinct settings for managing table availability:

• Do not utilize table-seating
• Enable free movement of guests between tables without seat tracking
• Allow movement while displaying availability warnings based on table capacity
• Restrict changes when no free seats are available

Additional features enable users to quickly view all guests seated at a particular table and track check-in statuses. The Table column is customizable to aid in special events such as hotel breakfast check-ins or equipment tracking.
