eVite Goes Mobile

Online invitation service, eVite, has just released a cross-platform mobile service that lets you send & respond to invitations from your mobile device. The platform consists of 4 mobile products that work together to bring the eVite service with you on the go. The QuickVite feature lets you “quickly” create and send invites called “QuickVites” from either your computer or phone. Guests who receive QuickVites, get them as either an email or a text message, and then they can reply in 3 different ways: they can reply “yes” or “no” by clicking a button in the email, they can reply “yes” or “no” to the text message, or they can click a link to see who’s coming, and add a message before replying. Using the eVite send-to-phone feature, you can send an event’s details like the date, address, and who’s replying, to your phone. You can have the service notify you when you receive a new invitation, (as a host) when a guest replies, have it send you event details within 24 hours of the event, and notify you if there are changes to an event you’re attending. With the eVite mobile page, available at http://m.evite.com, you can view your upcoming events, get event details and see who’s coming, send QuickVites to friends, and reply to QuickVites you’ve received. The fourth feature, “evite on-the-go,” will be a custom downloadable application for your mobile phone, but it has not yet been released.
