A manager in HotHealth is a user with the power to control all aspects of the app and website. The person who created the app, it automatically a manager. You can have multiple managers by granting additional access to users in the "Managers" section of the "Dashboard".

An manager can do everything in your app so be careful who has manager access!

An "Assistant Manager" can create and edit news articles and events (including sending push notifications) from within the app only. Further, they only have access groups that they are part of. That means they can only edit an event if that event has been made visible to a group they are part of. It also means they can create a new event but can only make it visible to groups they are part of.

They do not have privileges to access this web site management system so they cannot change any of the features of your App or edit and approve member requests.
