By | Drive-in Audio | No Comments

With summer just a few short weeks away, interest in our drive-in audio solution is picking up! To celebrate this glorious time of year and the activities that make it so special, we thought we’d share a few of our favorite customers using AudioFetch as their radio app for drive-ins.

Penn Cinema

Throughout the year, Penn Cinema offers a top-notch movie experience indoors, and in the warmer months, their “Summer Under the Stars” series brings that experience outdoors. Penn Cinema has two locations in Lititz and Huntingdon Valley, Pennsylvania, and screens a mix of family favorites, cult classics, and modern blockbusters.

Blue Starlite Drive-In

Conde Nast said Blue Starlite Drive-In is “one of the coolest outdoor movie theaters in the world,” and we agree! Opened a decade ago, Blue Starlite remains the only mini urban boutique drive-in movie theater in the world. They only allow 15-40 cars at each of their locations (two in Austin, Texas, one in Round Rock, Texas, and one in Minturn, Colorado), ensuring all guests can enjoy an intimate, personal, and one-of-a-kind drive-in experience.

Holiday Twin Drive-In

The Holiday Twin Drive-In Theatre is a two-screen theater in Fort Collins, Colorado built in the late 1960s. Today, Holiday Twin runs two features on each screen seven days a week. Audiences not only enjoy the movies playing each evening, but they can also take in a gorgeous sunset and views of the Rocky Mountains.

Vanderwende Farm Creamery

This family-owned farm in Bridgeville, Delaware began hosting drive-ins last summer as an innovative way to engage their community and generate new business. Vanderwende used AudioFetch’s audio over WiFi solutions for their drive-in events, creating a fun and responsible activity for their community and another event to sell their ice cream and homemade goodies.

If you’re interested in hosting a drive-in movie theater, we can help with your audio. Whether you’re hosting in an established drive-in theater, a parking lot beside your building, or even a beach, our AudioFetch wireless audio streaming products are a simple and affordable solution. Contact us today!

How to Host a Drive-in Graduation Ceremony

Schools that wanted to raise the bar and create a ceremony worthy of the grads, while still maintaining a safe physical environment, opted to host “drive-in” style graduation ceremonies last year. For these drive-in graduations, the students and families parked in the school parking lot and remained in their cars while listening to the commencement speeches and grad names being announced via their smartphones or radios. With social distancing requirements still in place at schools around the world, this is still a great option for 2021 grads.

New App Customizations: Branding and Personalizing Your AudioFetch App

By | AudioFetch News | No Comments

We’re continually looking for ways to improve the AudioFetch app and make it more useful for you and your customers. Today, we’re excited to announce a number of new customization features, which allow you to brand and personalize the app, making it more useful for your business and your guests. 

AudioFetch App Customization

Following are the seven new customization features available now for your AudioFetch app:

Change the App Title

Specify an App Title, which will appear on the widget that displays when the device is on a lock-screen mode. This will remind your listeners that they’re connected and listening with your business, using a name they’re familiar with. 

Add Your Logo 

Replace the AudioFetch logo with your business’s logo in two spots: at the very top of the app, and in the center of the app screen. This helps you better connect with your guests by continuing to build brand recognition for your business, and making the app more familiar to your guests.

Add a Custom Background

You can now change the entire background of the app to display a custom image or customer color of your choosing. This feature is useful in further familiarizing guests with your brand and setting the right tone while they are at your facility. 

Add Custom Channel Icons

Previously if your facility was using more than one audio source, the channels were simply displayed “Channel 1,” “Channel 2,” etc. Now you can customize those icons to better represent what is streaming on each audio channel, making it easier for guests to find what they want to listen to.

For example, if you’re streaming audio from TVs playing CNN, ESPN and Comedy Central, you can upload the respective logos for each channel. 

Add Custom Splash Page

Display a custom banner or video before the app opens. Use this page to reinforce your brand message or promote events, deals or specials that are currently happening at your establishment.

Link to Your Website

To drive traffic to your business or organization’s website, you can now add a hyperlink under the hamburger menu dropdown, found in the top left corner of the app. 

Link to a Custom PDF Document 

Add a hyperlink to a PDF document under the hamburger menu dropdown, found in the top left corner of the app. You can use this PDF link in numerous ways:

  • Share important business information, such as event programs, fitness class schedules or menus. 
  • Announce specials, discounts, upcoming events or other promotions. 
  • Add a custom message or any other content that you’d like to share. 

All of these customizations are available through The Doghouse configuration management portal, which every customer has access to at no additional cost or monthly fees!

If you have any questions about customizing the AudioFetch app or using it to engage with your customers, we’re happy to help! Drop us a line, chat with us, or call us at 1-844-443-3824.

*Note: App customizations are only available for AudioFetch Signature Series products and AudioFetch Express.
