Society notice board: FAQ

A digital notice board lets a managing committee publish official announcements to all residents with read receipts, categories, pinning and optional acknowledgement — a verifiable upgrade over WhatsApp groups and the lobby pinboard.

Questions committees ask

What kinds of notices can we post? General, maintenance, financial, event, security, AGM, governance and urgent — each colour-coded so residents can scan quickly.

Can we see who has read a notice? Yes. Admins get live stats: how many residents have read and acknowledged a notice.

What is "required acknowledgement"? For important notices (e.g. a new gate SOP or a special levy), you can require each resident to tap "Acknowledge". You then see exactly who has and hasn't.

Is there a record if a decision is later disputed? Yes — every publish, edit and acknowledgement is written to an append-only audit log.

Can we pin or flag urgent notices? Yes — pin keeps a notice at the top; "urgent" shows a high-visibility banner.

Does it notify residents? Residents are notified in-app on publish; WhatsApp/SMS/email broadcasts are on the roadmap.

How much does it cost? Free to start. Read receipts, scheduling and acknowledgement are in paid tiers.
