This app is a big downgrade from previous years. There are two main goals with conference apps: to build a calendar and read abstracts…this app accomplishes neither. When the app displays the conference events it allows the option to add events and individual talks to “my program,” however the “my program” page has almost no functionality (sort by day is needed for basic use) and does not display like a personal calendar of events (like previous years’ app versions). Instead, the “my agenda” page is supposed to serve as a personalized calendar however it is not populated with the selected events and talks of interest. There is the option to add the talks and events to ical, but why do I need two apps to navigate the conference?! Finally, regarding the abstracts, the abstracts are not internally available in the app but rather sends you to a web-hosted file. Those files are not easily read with mobile devices…you have to zoom and scroll around, dumb. Then when you navigate back to the app, it starts over on the homepage. This app is awful and a hindrance to conference attendees experience.
