Ability to register on waitlist from member app
Provide the ability for a member to register on the waitlist of an event from the Member App. Currently, if an event sells out, the only way to register on the waitlist is from the website. This is unfortunate as we have been pushing our members to use the app for all registrations. Please add this ability.

We started development on the waitlist registration feature for the Member app.

Please add the option in the Member App for users to join an event waitlist. Our members are so confused as to why they cannot join the waitlist for an event using the Member App. We have them well-trained to check the app often to register for events, but then it's so strange that the option to join the wait list is only available via the full website.

Through research and testing of the waitlist functionality, I've just become aware that members cannot use the member app to waitlist for a full event. My organization wants to widely roll-out the waitlist functionality but this new learning is quite a pain point, and may be a show-stopper, especially since for some time we've encouraged app usage and are experiencing steady growth. Can Wild Apricot share if this feature is on the member app roadmap and what the company plans are?

I don't understand why something that is available in the Web version is not available in the Mobile App. Most of our members use the App rather than the web version because it is easily accessible, and everyone has their phone with them. This is a key request and 2 plus years since it was first requested nothing has been done!!! That makes no sense to me.

A number of members only use the member app to register for events - so being able to add name to waitlists is a must!

We would also appreciate this feature but need more people to vote on it so it gets attention!

This is an essential feature to have

Yes! The waitlist is such a helpful function, and it doesn't make sense that it is not available from the mobile app.

Agree completely Micahel Klybor. Users have no way to know that there is waitlist at all unless they go to the website. Most users are using the mobile apps, not the website.

Mobile app for members (both android and iOS) does not allow a member to register for an event if the event is full and would result in the member being put onto the wait list. this is killing us, since our events regularly fill up and result in people on the waitlist. I direct people to use the mobile browser version to go through our web site, but this should be available via the mobile app. thanks, hope this feature can be added.
