Download the MedAll app
The easiest way to build and manage your micro-app on MedAll is with the app. You, your department and students can download the app for free from the Apple iOS or Android app store.
Invite your team and your students
Keep everyone up to date! Give your department and students access to your education programme, university or medical school's community micro-app you will need to invite them to it.
You can do that by:
Adding their emails using the "invite" feature
Sharing the link with them and they can request to join your community on MedAll.
When you set up your micro-app, you can choose to make it public so the content you add is available to everyone, or private for your department and students only. You can also make specific resources available to everyone or just for your students.
Send notifications to your students
With the MedAll Apple iOS & Android app you can keep your students up to date with notifications straight to their phones. No more clunky, outdated email threads or messy WhatsApp conversations.
Notify your students about:

Exam timetables
Hospital placement info
And anything that is important to your university medical school. Your students will never miss an important update again.
Add resources to your micro-app
The resources area of your micro-app on MedAll is a flexible and fully customisable area where you can easily store and share all the files, links and documents that are important to your university medical school or department — from exam timetables to hospital placement information. You have unlimited file storage and can organise your resources flexibly into folders to suit your department structure.
A few examples:
