The Updates tab of 639 Connect, listing notices from the hall — a reminder to update contact information, a hall closure for maintenance, and new steward training dates — each with the date it was posted.

Four tabs. Everything the hall needs you to see.

There is no feed to sort through and no group to join. The app opens on the latest notice from the office, and the rest is one tap away.

Notices from the hall, newest first. Tap one to read it in full, with the author, the date, and any links the office included.

Hear it from the Local first.

Every notice the office posts shows up the moment it goes up — contract talks, shift changes, hall closings, call-outs. A push notification tells you it is there, and the bell keeps the ones you have not opened, so nothing scrolls past you on a double shift.

Know the date before the shift ends.

Membership meetings and union events, each with the venue, the time, and what is on the agenda. Turn on Meeting & Vote Reminders in Settings and the app tells you while there is still time to make it.

The Calendar tab of 639 Connect, listing upcoming meetings with the date, time and room for each.

Cast your vote from the floor.

Open ballots show how long you have got and how many members have voted. Tap Cast Now, make your choice, and the app confirms it. Once you have voted, the card switches to View Detail — you can check what you did, and you cannot do it twice.

The agreement, in your pocket.

Search the contracts the Local has posted and read them right in the app, or download the PDF and keep it on your phone for the days the plant's signal will not cooperate.

The Contracts tab of 639 Connect, showing a searchable list of agreements — a Health & Welfare summary plan description, the 2024-2027 collective bargaining agreement, a memorandum of understanding on overtime rotation — each with a download button.

The benefits you are owed.

Member benefits and MAPP discounts, filed by category — from professional services to home and recreation — so you can see what your card is worth without ringing the hall to ask.

The Benefits tab of 639 Connect, listing member discounts by category — tobacco and specialty, sporting goods and recreation, professional services, and house and home.

Know who to call.

A searchable directory of your officials and stewards — name, shift, and the building they work out of — filtered by category, so you find the right person without asking three people first.

The Union Officials tab of 639 Connect, a searchable directory listing the Local’s president, vice president, secretary, treasurer and member representative, each with a button to call or email them.

What the app tells you on day one.
