This is the first time I’ve been to a conference with its own app. I loved having one spot to find everything. No paper needed. So much there - and so useful! My phone was too small to take notes on the slides but just having the slides there is great. A new feature I’d like to see would be a way to mark the slides I want and then at the end of the conference have these marked slides easily emailed to me or printed off.

It’s so easy over the course of the year to have your passion for lifestyle medicine wane when you feel like you’re an island. Coming back to the conference and hearing the evidence-based lectures, seeing how others are using lifestyle medicine, and having conversations with like-minded people reinvigorates my commitment and desire to keep holding the torch in my community.

This conference has changed me as an individual, clinician, leader and even wife. I feel silly that I didn’t embrace this philosophy earlier but glad I got to the party even late - there is still time to teach, be a model, love, learn and help change a culture. Thanks for creating a wave that will change medicine.

Issues encountered:Unable to enter state in my profileSmall printMultiple crashes a day requiring multiple loginsSlides would not print from appDownloading slides to PDF is not intuitive. Took several tries to print slides from webpage as some of the screens with a print button did not work Schedule at a glance too time consuming to locate the information Don’t understand why our notes are available for third party review (per the terms and agreement for using the app). This alone discouraged me from using the app, as well as taking notes on the appWould be difficult to take notes on slides due to small sizeThis is my second year using the app and I still find it burdensome.
