Called+: Announcements in Chat

With the Announcement enhancement, any admin or leader can create a custom call-to-action within chat to further engage and lead your members to action.

A few highlights:

1. Only admins or leaders can create an Announcement Boost.
2. You can create an Announcement Boost within any Community or Group chat that you are a leader of. (Must have app version 1.6.8 to create and receive)
3. Can be created and engaged with both on app and web.

How to create on app:

1. Go to your community or group chat.
2. Click the “+” icon.
3. Select “Announcement.”
4. Fill out the fields.
   1. Note: The button is optional. If you don’t add an Announcement link or Link Button Text, it will not show a button when you send it.
5. Once complete, tap “Continue.”
6. You will see a preview of it. 
   1. Only in the app: If you want to make any additional edits, just tap on the Boost within the preview box and it will go into edit mode.
   2. Note: Once sent, you can not edit the Boost.
7. Once ready, press send.
