4. Friendly Access of Communication

Parents and students can access Bloomz on various devices & receive notifications via email, app, text or audio recordings; and all communication is visible in the web or mobile apps.

  • Members can control notifications on a specific post or message. Example: a very active thread in a group that I am part of with many replies may need to be muted for a period of time that you don't want to see interaction.
  • Email digest can be configured at a preferred time by each recipient. This allows them to process information according to their time of choice.
  • Quiet hours can be configured when users do not want to be bothered with notifications. Please note that Alerts are still sent during the Quiet Hours. The sender of any 1-1 message will know that they are trying to reach during the quiet hours and so they have expectation set that they may not receive responses.

6. Powerful Communication Community

  • Communities: Members have access to the communities (School District, School, Classroom/Groups, Teams, Daycares, etc.) that they have been invited to, and they reside on their landing page with Bloomz for easy access.
  • Communication Feed: Members access and engage with the communication activity at a global level through “Show for All Groups”, or at the community level to view communication and event updates.
  • Messages: Members have access to the message feature of Bloomz to correspond with the staff and/or other members of the community, if allowed by Class Administrator.
