I have also found no way so far to see the “my meeting” events on my desktop or actually edit my schedule on my desktop. Thoroughly disappointing interface. ### 1/5 — Inferior to a simple paper program *2025-03-12, version 7.0.0* The annual meeting now forces you to use this app instead of the traditional printed program. With so many concurrent sessions going on, it is much more difficult to plan your day using the app. The old way wasn’t broken and this is a solution looking for a problem. If the aim is to reduce waste, the how about the plastic bag with industry flyers you get at registration that everyone immediately throws away, or the thousands of copies of AAOS Now being handed out that we all get in the mail anyway? ### 1/5 — Exorbitant prices, lack of nourishment *2023-02-26, version 4.0.1.4* AAOS meetings have gotten much too expensive and available food is crap. Instructional course that were $25-50 are now $90, meeting that was included as part of membership dues is now $350 while the membership has jumped to $1076. This is unjustifiable. We need reduced expense commensurate with the drastically reduced reimbursement for services we provide and light refreshment with and without caffeine plus sandwiches and fruit readily available and included. ### 1/5 — Poor *2022-03-22, version 3.0.0* I am literally unable to find the classes I signed up for on this poor excuse for an app. ### 1/5 — Why no QR code scan? *2021-09-02, version 2.0.1* Log-in to access My Meeting not intuitive - why can‘t I just scan my badge and have my paid courses etc already populated? Super clunky ### 2/5 — Too many unwanted notifications *2023-03-07, version 4.0.1.4* Too many pointless and unwanted notifications drowning my notification screen. ### 2/5 — Not good *2022-03-21, version 3.0.0* Not easy to find sessions. ### 2/5 — AAOS now *2021-08-30, version 2.0.0* Show info is difficult to find. Important items like exhibit times, etc are difficult to find. ### 3/5 — Exhibit layout *2024-02-13, version 6.0.0* Not very good for getting around. Too many short aisles. ## Most praised reviews (3 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — AAOS meeting *2024-02-17, version 6.0.0* I was very pleased with the meeting and have learned a lot of useful information. I look forward to the next year’s. ### 5/5 — Surgeon *2024-02-14, version 6.0.0* Stimulating meeting to date. Catching up with old friends and colleagues has been great. Topics covered will help in my practice. ### 4/5 — Hotel registration *2024-01-17, version 5.0.5* Need to include the hotel already chosen on the personal profile --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
