Introduction and Why Use This App for Confluence?

Open

The Simple Announcements app gives you the ability to display announcements in your Confluence Cloud instance. These banners can be shown on any Confluence page.

If you're asking yourself why you would want to use this app, the answer is simple:

While Atlassian now provides a way of showing announcements in Confluence Cloud, our Announcer app still provides more advanced functionality than the built-in Confluence Cloud announcement banner.

Announcements in our app allow for more rich content, scheduling of announcements, more visuals, read receipts, and advanced permissions.

With our Confluence app, you can easily create rich announcements, schedule them, and decide whether they should be shown to logged in users, or public users.
