Cleared my schedule
The app is incredibly difficult to navigate, but I persisted and built my schedule within it… only for the app to be inaccessible for at least a day and to find my schedule completely cleared afterwards. I’m now starting from scratch. Just add events to an external calendar instead of bothering with this.

Very Frustrating
First time attending AERA & this app was a disaster to navigate.
So many poor designs on this app it’s difficult to know where to begin. Here are things to consider for next year:
1) make all sessions searchable by presenters’ names
2) allow individuals to search for sessions by topics
3) include presentations under participants profiles
4) upload slideshow presentations in each session on the app for easy access & downloads (with presenter’s consent, of course)
5) completely scratch this attempt at making your own app and just use the WHOVA app like CEC does every year that already has all of these features already embedded & works flawlessly.

Worst app ever
I know there are smart and tech savvy folks in AERA and yet this app is the worst ever.
Does not work
The app has been stuck on the title page for the past two days. Utterly worthless if it can’t be used.
Glitchy with no support
Much like its atrociously designed website the AERA conference app is almost laughably bad. I can’t even login using the one-time credentials it generates. Requests for support go unanswered. Truly dreadful.
