The 4-H Now collection will feature only apps built for 4-H, thereby guaranteeing parents and students the safety and security that a 4-H exclusive app can offer. Should you elect to produce a stand-alone app, the app can also be listed in the 4-H Now Container, or one of the other containers Grandstand offers. These could be year-round apps for state or county 4-H programs, or a specific project niche app, or even an app just for a 4-H County or State Fair.
4-H groups have a variety of activities and events going on every month. Our full- or self-service platform can be used to build apps for varied needs. Apps can be built to share results at a county or state fair, share a schedule and featured events at a roundup, provide training for new volunteers, or offer a state-wide scavenger hunt for members or the public. In addition, using the platform, 4-H Educators can share curriculum in a unique lesson delivery setup through the Quiz Maker.
To launch your own app in 4-H Now you can build it yourself using Grandstand App Builder or pay a few dollars more and have us create the initial design and content loading. This unique approach means that apps will always match the 4-H brand, without the price tag that is usually associated with apps of this quality.
All apps created for 4-H groups include the full menu of options available for any app created using the Grandstand App Builder. Features that are especially useful for 4-H groups include:
- Schedule or Calendar of events
- Custom lists to create and manage lists of vendors, attendees, donors, members, groups, catalog of projects, etc.
- Scavenger Hunt
- Quizzes
- Surveys
- Alerts & Notifications
- ShoWorks or result-tracking software integration
- Custom maps
- Social media
- Robust Search
The 4-H Now container app is now available in both the Apple App Store and Google Play store.
