# Push Notifications

{% hint style="warning" %}
**Beta Feature**: Push Notifications are currently in beta testing. While fully functional, we're actively testing and gathering feedback to optimize the feature before general release.
{% endhint %}

**Reach travelers instantly** during their journey without needing phone numbers or email addresses. Send **instant messages** to travelers who have downloaded your release through the Tour Guide App. Especially valuable for **B2B partnerships** where operators often lack direct traveler contact data. All messages are **automatically translated** into the language of the release.

### How It Works

{% hint style="info" %}
**Prerequisite**: Travelers must have downloaded the release in the Tour Guide App first
{% endhint %}

**Send notifications to single releases**

1. Open **Release Dashboard**
2. **Select a release** from the list
3. Use **Message section** on the right side
4. **Compose and send** your message

**Send notifications to multiple releases**

1. Open **Release Dashboard**
2. **Apply filters** to select target releases
3. **Select** target releases
4. **Click the message icon** in next to the search field
5. **Compose and send** message to all filtered releases
6. **Receive an error** when releases do not have downloads and messages cannot be sent

### Message Storage in App

All notifications appear in the **Messages section** (top-right icon in Tour Guide App):

* **Complete history** of all operator communications
* **Persistent access** throughout the journey

### Automatic translation

All messages are automatically translated into the language of the release.

### Advanced Targeting

Send to **multiple releases simultaneously** using filters:

* **Active travelers only** (currently on trips)
* **Specific guidebooks** or destinations
* **Operator-agency combinations** for B2B coordination
* **Particular download codes** for targeted groups

### Use Cases

#### Operational Excellence

* **Weather alerts** and route modifications
* **Service disruptions** and alternative arrangements
* **Last-minute changes** to accommodations or schedules

#### B2B Communication

* **Reach agency customers** without direct contact data
* **Coordinate updates** between operators and resellers
* **Maintain service quality** across distribution channels

#### Customer Experience

* **Welcome messages** upon arrival
* **Local recommendations** and insider tips
* **Service recovery** for unexpected issues
