Much Improved — Thank You for Listening!

I’ve been using AfroTech Connect since last year, and the app has definitely stepped up. It’s smoother, way fewer bugs, and the event navigation actually works now. You can tell the team paid attention to community feedback — big improvement overall. Appreciate the devs for listening and making real progress.

Essential for the conference, but has some quirks

It freezes in iPhones. Happened last year to on my older phone. Not that big of a deal, just restart. My biggest complaint is when I get a notification for an event on the calendar and I click it, losing the notification, and it doesn’t take me to the event.

Response from developer

Hi Paul. Thanks for the feedback. Hopefully, it hasn't been freezing on you lately. When we find these issues, we try to squash them as soon as possible. Regarding the push notification, apologies for that. That is less of an app issue and more of an error from our marketing team when they sent out the notification. There were a few cases where they forgot to include the deeplink, so it just defaults to landing you on the home screen. We'll work to do better to ensure all our future push notifications have a destination.

Conference Companion - No

The app is great for connecting but aside from that not useful. I expected it to allow me to create my AfroTech Schedule get the latest schedule updates etc. it didn’t perhaps use some on the other conference platforms no need to reinvent the wheel!

Response from developer

Thank you for your feedback. Being able to "Favorite" specific sessions to create your own curated schedule is a feature we are exploring for future releases.

Moving Backwards

I'm so disappointed in this upgrade. There seems to be even less functionality than there was last year. Although I'm glad they've added the filter option for tracks and you can search the sessions.
They've removed the ability to go through the schedule, favorite (or heart) sessions, and view them under your "favorites" section. It was also easier to add each session to your calendar last year and plan out all your sessions synced with your calendar. A very helpful feature for the neurodivergent community. Instead of improving on last year’s functional design, we have to learn to navigate a new app design that works less efficiently
