Too Many Updates During Events
As an app to plan, it works well, it cautions when double booking yourself and allows the reading of abstracts as well as session and talk level granularity in putting things on your schedule.
Where it fails is that any time an announcement is posted, it generates an ‘update’ which, when signal is poor, as it often is in a convention center, you cannot check the room number for the next talk you want to attend. These announcements come shortly before sessions, RIGHT when you have the most urgency to check a room number. I have missed several talks at JSM due to this poor prioritization of announcements vs usability.

Not user friendly
Constantly gets stuck “updating”. Unfriendly UI, not showing speaker names in conferences sessions
