Add a button or a quick question

A message can ask families to do one thing. Add a button that opens a link, or a short question families answer with one tap. Either way, MessageGo tracks who has done it.

Steps

1. In the composer, go to the Message step.
2. Open Add a button or a quick yes/no.
3. For a button, fill in Button text, optional and Link. The link must start with https://.
4. For a question, type the answers in Or ask a quick yes/no, optional, split by commas. Example: We'll be there, Can't make it.
5. Finish and send as usual. The Ready to send screen shows the button and the answers.

See who answered

1. On Messages, find the Who's done table.
2. Click the message. You see Answers with a count for each choice, then Still out and Done by family name.
3. Click Download CSV for the full list.

Good to know

• Up to four answers. If you type more, the composer warns you and only the first four go out. Each family gets their own answer link, so no one needs an account.
• In a text, families can reply with a number, like 1 for the first answer.
• Families can change their answer later. The tally follows.
