Completely useless. ### 1/5 — DOA *2025-10-05, version 9.0.2* Amazing to release an app that can’t even open. Nice! ### 2/5 — Not working *2025-10-05, version 9.0.2* This app is not working on either my phone or my wife’s phone. It comes up for a fraction of a second and then disappears.

Crashing when launched. ### 1/5 — Waste of time *2025-10-05, version 9.0.2* It won’t even run on my iPad… ### 1/5 — Doesn’t work *2025-10-05, version 9.0.2* I have an Apple I phone and the Apple doesn’t work. Can’t update either. Terrible! ### 1/5 — Load fail *2025-10-05, version 9.0.2* App will not launch on my iPhone 16 pro or my wife 15 pro ### 1/5 — App won’t open *2025-10-04, version 9.0.2* I downloaded the app in anticipation of my arrival in a few days, and each time I try and open it, it flashes and crashes. ### 1/5 — App not working *2025-10-04, version 9.0.2* Wanted to use this app for the event but know it won’t work at all. Tried deleting it and reinstalling it but still doesn’t work. Please fix asap. ### 1/5 — Crashed *2025-10-04, version 9.0.2* Won’t open ### 1/5 — Crashes on launch *2025-10-04, version 9.0.2* The app crashes upon launch on both my iPhone and iPad. Have deleted app and reinstalled a couple of times. ### 1/5 — Won’t open *2025-10-04, version 9.0.2* Downloaded the app 4 times. Will not open !! ### 1/5 — Glitchy *2025-10-04, version 9.0.2* I couldn’t get into the app. It would just kick me out. ### 1/5 — App won’t open *2025-10-04, version 9.0.2* I would love to use the app to get updates on the event, but it won’t open for me at all. When I click on the app, my screen goes dark like it’s trying to open and then glitches back to my Home Screen. I’ve tried re-installing the app, but it hasn’t helped ): ### 1/5 — Does not work on Apple *2025-10-04, version 9.0.2* Very disappointed as I would have liked to follow the events ### 1/5 — Embarrassing *2025-10-04, version 9.0.2* This is Albuquerque's biggest event of the year and the app crashes immediately ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — This does nothing to help *2025-10-11, version 9.0.3* A _major_ problem with the Balloon Fiesta now is that information about schedule change due to the weather is kept in a mayonnaise jar in Funk and Wagnall’s basement until the news media gets around to reporting it a day later. This is the app that should fix that, with push notifications and a genuine ‘updates’ section. As-is, it just reproduces web content, which also is not kept up to date. ### 1/5 — What happened? *2025-10-06, version 9.0.3* App was working fine a week ago. Now that fiesta is here I can’t get it to load at all. I deleted and reinstalled several times and it still doesn’t work. ### 1/5 — Crashes Immediately *2025-10-06, version 9.0.3* SAD! ### 1/5 — Crashes constantly *2025-10-05, version 9.0.2* Can’t open just crashes and shuts down. ### 1/5 — Doesn’t work *2025-10-05, version 9.0.2* I have tried multiple times to open app. It will not open have deleted app and reinstalled it a few times. ### 1/5 — Nothing like a pretend App! *2025-10-05, version 9.0.2* If this app isn’t going to work at all, please delete it from the App Store! ### 1/5 — Not working on new iOS26 with iPad *2025-10-05, version 9.0.2* App just crashes even after reinstalling ### 1/5 — Does not open *2025-10-05, version 9.0.2* Doesn’t even open just sends me back to the Home Screen. Has happened to everyone I’ve been around ### 1/5 — 2025 fail *2025-10-05, version 9.0.2* Immediately crashes on both iPhone and iPad. Too bad it wasn’t tested well before launching. By the time it is debugged, the fiesta will be over I’m sure. ### 1/5 — Crashes *2025-10-05, version 9.0.2* App crashes immediately when opened ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Solid app for the fiesta *2018-10-14* I was at the Balloon Fiesta this year and this app was great. We easily located the balloons we wanted to see and it was nice to have an exact location for each one. ### 5/5 — Must Have for Fiesta! *2018-10-11* This is great addition to the fiesta! So much so I stopped using the paper guide. The push notifications are priceless! I only wish the notifications menu (the bell) updated at the same time as the push notice rather than much later. Inadvertently swipe clearing the push notice as it pops up means you have to wait for it to post in the menu - a minor complaint. Major complaint turned compliment was the glitchy map but they had an update out by mid-fiesta to fix it, so turn that frown upside down! ### 5/5 — A must have for anyone at the Balloon Fiesta *2016-10-01, version 4.0.6* Makes finding everything at the Balloon Fiesta a breeze. 👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽 ### 5/5 — Good looking app *2016-09-23, version 4.0.3* This new update looks great. I'm a fan of the new features ### 5/5 — Amazing app !!! *2016-09-23, version 4.0.3* Well done. Easy to use and contains the latest official balloon fiesta information. ### 5/5 — Notifications *2016-09-14, version 4.0* Looking forward to getting official notifications on daily events. ### 5/5 — AMR *2016-09-12, version 4.0* Great app ### 5/5 — Amazing! *2016-09-10, version 4.0* This is perfect. One less thing to carry around. I love it! ### 5/5 — Jas420ladys *2016-09-09, version 4.0* Great app! ### 5/5 — Thanks for having an app for the Balloon Fiesta *2016-09-07, version 4.0* Love it!
