Ratings and Reviews
App takes you to home page every time you open it
PLEASE, just let me open the app to the last thing I was looking at! Every time I open it it takes me back to home page where I have to click on the “go to schedule” button, tap on my schedule, tap on the date, and scroll down. It would be great if the app would just open on the last thing you were looking at! Sure, serve me the same yellow jackets ad I’ve seen a million times already but please don’t make me start over every time I open the app!!! Also the search should be optimized a bit to include any word/person/place of the sessions. For instance, I would search “ballroom D” and random things would pop up but not the room page where I can see the sessions that will happen there. Hope this is helpful!
Confusing to navigate
The UX is so messed up on this app. Menu items are confusing: Schedule, Today, My Favorites seem to be versions of the same thing. Seeing just films or just bands is under Lists A-Z. You can filter by tags but not by venue, by date or by time. Sometimes the schedule shows my favorited items, sometimes not. Sometimes essential info runs off screen on my small phone. Events Nearby opens a “link my badge” window that is impossible to exit. It took me 4 days to find out there was a shuttle tracker. Two stars because it runs on both my iPad and my ancient iPhone. It would be better if you could rate 1st choice, 2nd choice, etc for events at same time, or place events on the map so you could plan things near each other. But Schedule functions well (I like the “free time” feature when there’s a gap in schedule).
With all the interactive and tech focus of SXSW the app should really work better than this.
Major features don’t work on iphoneX.
Latest Update:
- deleted the app completely. Downloaded again as noticed they had done update for iPhonex. Seems to be working much better now on the issues.
My current list of issues - I run app on iphoneX:
- can’t update profile pic - missing feature
- won’t save favourites of anything as lose it on next sync
- planned schedule on website instead and expected it to sync to app - doesn’t
- filters don’t work - can’t move sliders
- slow performance
- rsvp doesn’t work
Basically app is useless for its most critical purpose and that is helping to plan the experience we pay for at SXSW. I now revert to paper guide and using iCal sync from the website scheduler. The only thing I use for is venue addresses.
Hard to believe given this is a design and engineering conference. This app simple hasn’t been tested.
Developer Response ,
Thank you so much for your detailed feedback. I am glad the iPhone X update improved your experience. We are always looking for ways to improve our app. I will take this feedback to our mobile dev team. If you have any additional thoughts we would be happy to hear them.
