When the Next Generation of ShowingTime launches, it will give a 'Show Me Around' option which we recommend so you can get a tour of the new layout.
Here is an example of the Next Generation next to the old one. Most of the menu options are the same. One big change is the messages are now found in an icon at the top right next to notifications.
The Dashboard is a great new feature that makes it easy to see upcoming showings, easily schedule a showing and see Action Items.
