2018 artist bios won’t load
07/27/2018

JJDale
This app has always been stellar. Super useful and user-friendly, absolutely needed to help make the Fest that much more fun.This year the bios for all the bands aren’t loading when using the app. This isn’t a deal killer just a big annoyance for an otherwise great app. Is this big being worked on?Edit: real time usage on Friday, the scrolling feature as bands’ set times would tick off doesn’t work anymore. Additionally, everything is off by an hour at least. Just got a notification that Moses Sumney was playing the Harbor Stage at about 4:25. His set ended a while ago and Rachel and Vilray was already more than halfway through their own set.

I saw so many people using this app over the weekend. I really like the countdown until an artist was scheduled to begin their set...very useful. It loaded quickly and had beautiful graphics. The notifications and news sections seemed somewhat redundant but all in all a very good app that went above and beyond my expectations.

Yay, no more paper schedules! This app is awesome and has everything a festival go-er needs: easy to read band schedule, artist info, venue map and the ability to customize your own schedule. You guys definitely know what you are doing, great job! Now if it could only pre-order me a beer :)

Time is broken and Alerts are incredibly delayed

Time within the app is broken, it often thinks an act starts in the future that has already finished. Alerts about artist arrive hours after act has finished.Maybe this was caused by bad connection to the cellphone network? With the number of the people at the festival I would expect the app to work better offline. I would be better off with a pdf of the schedule saved to my phone, but that isn’t an option.

Hello!Sorry you had a bad experience with the app last year. We definitely had some struggles on Friday, but cleared things up by Saturday. Hope you’ll grab the new release (out now,) if you’re attending this year’s fest!
