Haiilo has a range of apps that are designed to serve specific use cases. Apps can be installed in pages or communities and are responsible for providing or processing information. While some apps have space for widgets, others, such as the form or documents app, serve their individual use case independently.

Features

Apps include the following:

• Enabling apps: Admins can turn individual apps on or off for pages, communities, or both in Administration > Features > Apps. This way, you can decide which apps can be used in pages or communities or at all on the platform. You can also determine if the app can only be managed and added by moderators.
• Adding apps and app groups: You need to add apps to your pages and communities to host the content of your page and community. Additionally, you can efficiently organize and sort your apps into groups to help users easily find what they need by topic. Learn more in these articles:
