  • Poorly run conference

    Over hyped and under delivered.
  • Dreadful

    Dreadful - poorly executed and doesn’t show all the things under your favourites that you’ve marked.
  • Some suggestions

    1. Music festival needs a FILTER BY GENRE search option. Because for people trying to discover what to go listen to, do you really expect us to decide what bands we like based off their names? Or read every single bio? When discovering songs on Spotify - the search by #genre option is PERFECT for fans to be matched to the music they want to listen to.

    2. SXSW App needs a horizontal events view - the ability to see a day’s timetable of MY SCHEDULE sessions and event times.
    Because currently, we have to scroll down a long vertical list of events, with the risk of missing or forgetting what we’ve just read while trying to schedule an already very jam-packed day.

    It would solve a lot of on-the-day planning issues if users could see all starred (favourite) sessions on one day ALL AT ONCE - like the iCalendar app.

    Even adding the ability to COLOUR CODE sessions for our self organisation would help a lot.

    Thanks :)

  • A bit if sweating

    Not everything is that close . If n the other hand packed of good stuff
  • Hardly innovative

    The notes don’t save. It’s hard to navigate. Can’t collaborate with others. Should be much better
  • Needs more thought.

    1st, in the general overall schedule view, there’s nothing to indicate what badge the session prioritizes which is frustrating when you’re trying to juggle and work out what you’re more likely to get into with your particular badge. But also just to indicate what the type of event it is without clicking through and trying to glean the info i.e there will just be a name “Alissa” and that could be a film or a gig or a panel.
    2nd, it needs a “interested in” star AND an “attending” star. Because I’m interested in a bunch of things that are on at the same time and want to keep them noted for reference but only want to go to one of them, OR, want to keep them handy incase I can’t get into my first preference.

  • Terrible user experience

    Both the website and the app have a very poor user experience. Considering this is an innovation and tech conference this is disappointing.
  • Really disappointing experience

    Unintuitive UI, poorly worded copy and ads in an app I ostensibly paid $900 to use. If you have to (poorly) explain to users how to use your app every step of the way, you’re doing it wrong. Having a separate set of authentication credentials specific to the app? Chef’s kiss of mediocrity. Pls fix.
  • Does accept registered details

    Can’t login into app. Blocks registered user name and password. Total joke of an app.
