Frequently Asked Questions
- What is Vamoos Studio?
Vamoos Studio is a way of adding custom functionality directly into a Vamoos itinerary. A Studio App can provide custom functionality and load information from external sources, allowing agents to expand the tools and content offered within a customer’s Vamoos app. The apps showcased on this page are ready-made apps that can be installed on any Vamoos environment and operate without any customisation. The Studio system also allows for fully bespoke apps to be developed based on an agent’s needs. If you’d like to explore a custom-made app for your own business, please get in touch.
- Do the apps work offline?
Yes, all of the apps shown on this page are intended to work offline, complementing the existing offline Vamoos experience that makes itinerary information available whilst a traveller is not connected to the internet.
When the customer first loads their itinerary into the Vamoos apps, any installed apps also download their necessary content. This content is cached within local storage of the device. Each time the app is re-opened, the data is loaded almost instantly from the cached data, allowing it to be viewed offline. Some specific features, like the text-to-speech function of the phrase guide, require an internet connection in order to play the audio from the Google Translate service.
- Do I need to write content for each itinerary?
No, the apps use the itinerary that you’ve already uploaded to Vamoos in order to generate the information they display. The itinerary locations along with the day-by-day itinerary is used by the AI engine to generate content that’s tailored to your customers. This means that every recommendation can be customised to the destinations they’re visiting and the time of year they’re travelling. The apps allow you to add customised travel content to your Vamoos app without having to write content.
- How can I use these apps?
The apps showcased on this page are ready to be used. For more information, please contact your Vamoos account manager.
- Can you create a custom Studio app for my business?
Absolutely. The Studio system allows the development of custom apps to serve any purpose. If you’d like to explore a custom-made app for your own business, please get in touch.
