About

HelpingApp

Read full description

With HelpingApp the volunteers can browse open volunteering tasks and sign up for them. The tasks can be configured so that registrations are confirmed automatically or that the coordinators need to confirm them, after which volunteers will get a push notification to the app. The app includes also a chat, where volunteers can discuss privately with the coordinators. Alternatively a volunteer can start a group chat, where all volunteers can participate and ask or comment about the details of a certain task. The login requires credentials, which the volunteer can get from the volunteering organization. The organization needs to have an agreement with Clara Finland Oy for the Clara service.

Loihde ID:n avulla pääset kulkemaan Loihteen pääsynhallinnan valvomista ovista helposti ja turvallisesti. Tilojen suojaustasosta riippuen ovesta kulkemiseen saattaa riittää vain kulkutunnisteena toimivan puhelimen tuominen oven läheisyyteen. Tilojen turvallisuustason ollessa korkeampi voidaan kulkemiseen vaatia myös esimerkiksi biometrinen tunnistautuminen tai jopa mahdollisen valvomon tarkistus henkilöllisyydestä valvontakameran kautta.
