Had to get because the website address for maps online was a dead link/address. Search function for artist alley was strictly for names. Didn’t see filters by interest. At least the app worked to search for names unlike the website. Information between the website and the app was not the same. Frustrating to find out some artists moved or wasn’t in the same place. Please find a way to link badges and photo op QR codes so not having to flip around apps with the sub par internet connecting in the convention space.

Big annoying design bug that is killing it… if you hit search, the keyboard comes up but if you hit cancel, cancel doesn’t work. If you tap a merchant or you do a search, it pulls up a drawer to go to the vendors site. Close that… back to search and keyboard blocking the menu. There’s no way to get out of search other than to totally close the app and reopen. Very frustrating. 4 stars cuz the app does help a lot, but this design flaw and bug in hitting cancel is UX 101.

I don’t need to plan for last year, this year’s con is less than two weeks away and a lot of us would like to be able to plan our days. This happens every year and they don’t update until like 48 hours before, which is a pain. They take our ticket money early enough, you can’t update the app and site together?

With the changes to the locations of things this year, the app was very helpful for navigation purposes! I was able to look at guests’ schedules and see when they would be at panels or signing at their tables. It was also useful for information about events happening at the show! PS The Tavern was the BEST!!!
